Bengali (Bangla) Concise Dictionary

With nearly 2090 million native speakers, Bengali (or Bangla) is the fourth most widely spoken language in the world; it is also the national language of Bangladesh and that of 14 Indian provinces. The people, language and culture were once united in a single territory, Bengal, a region in Northeast South Asia. Attracted by Bengal's trade and wealth, Buddhists, Hindus, Afghans, Turks and Moghuls fought for and took turns ruling the region for over two millennia, and the British swept up Bengal into the colony known as India. After Independence, Bengal split into what are now West Bengal, in India, and the separate independent nation of Bangladesh. Rooted in Sanskrit and Pali, Bengali literature is considered to he among the richest in South Asia, and features such luminaries as Nobel-prize winning novelist, Rabindranath Tagore. With over 8,000 entries, this dictionary is a useful and handy tool for the English-speaking student, businessperson, or traveller. All Bengali words are provided both in Bangla script and romanised transliteration. The book also features useful notes on word usage, and an appendix of conversational phrases.

Malayalam Dictionary & Phrasebook

Malayala is the language spoken predominantly in the beautiful state of Kerala, an increasingly popular tourist destination on the tropical Malabar coast of south-western India. Malayalam is spoken by around 36 million people. Its native speakers are called "Malayalis". The language is also spoken in the union territories of Lakshadweep and Pondicherry, and by populations all over the world. Malayalam has a rich literary tradition and its speakers are among India's foremost intellectuals. Belonging to the family of Dravidian languages and closely related to Tamil, the language spoken in the neighbouring state Tamil Nadu, Malayalam developed a script of its own. It is also, interestingly, the longest palindromic language name in English. This essential resource provides an extensive two-way dictionary, comprehensive phrasebook, and basic grammar. To aid the English speaker, all Malayalam entries are presented in the Roman alphabet. The native script is also introduced, however, along with a detailed pronunciation guide. Guidance is offered to travellers for various everyday life situations, as well as useful common vocabulary items and an introduction to the arts and culture of Kerala.
