Learning English from Bengali

Learning English (English) from Bengali is one of the most practical unlocks in the world — no genders, minimal verb endings, and the global vocabulary you already half know — and your doorway to the global language of business, technology, and the internet. English uses the 26-letter Latin alphabet with notoriously irregular spelling — "though", "through", and "thought" rhyme to the eye only. Invest early in learning how letters map to sounds differently from Bengali, and use audio to check every new word. Word order gets easier: Bengali already puts the verb at the end like Japanese, but English instead keeps it right after the subject and marks relations with prepositions before the noun (in the house) where you are used to "house-in". English word order will feel oddly early. Bengali and English are related through the wider Indo-European family, so some structural intuitions carry over even when the words do not.

How the two languages compare

Bengali already puts the verb at the end (SOV); English instead keeps it right after the subject (SVO), and does not keep the relational word after the noun. A neutral sentence translates across as "আমি বাংলা শিখছি।" → "I am learning English.", which is exactly where the word-order discipline lives. English uses prepositions before the noun, the mirror image of Bengali's "house-in" habit. Gender behaves the same way in both (none), so one less transfer skill.
