The name of my country is Bangladesh. And I am proud Bangladeshi. In the far northeastern corner of South Asia is the country of Bangladesh.
Bangla is our native language. There is a large majority of the people in Bangladesh who speak Bangla, the official language. As a language, Bangla (Bengali) has a long and illustrious history in Bangladesh. The 1952 Bangla Language Movement (Bhasha Andolon) was a watershed moment in the language's development. Today, Bangla is recognized as the official language of Bangladesh. Another annual event is International Mother Language Day, which takes place on February 21. Bangladeshi society, politics, and culture have all been profoundly impacted by the language. There are 42 officially recognized languages in Bangladesh, but there are a lot of other ethnic groups in the country, and Bangla isn't the only language they speak. Chittagonian, Rohingya, Sylheti, and many tribal languages are among those spoken in Bangladesh alongside Bengali. One of the secondary languages spoken in Bangladesh is English.

Various regional dialects spoken throughout different sections of Bangladesh demonstrate the linguistic diversity within the nation. Even though most people in Bangladesh speak Bengali, or Bangla, the official language, there are many dialects and regional differences that provide the cultural fabric of Bangladesh with a richer linguistic tapestry.
What we call "languages" are more like "systems of communication" that the inhabitants of a certain area or nation use to express themselves verbally and in writing. Communicating and doing business in Bangla may open doors to local markets, foster personal and professional development, and foster partnerships. Connecting with people who speak Bangla as their first language is a crucial part of its function.

I am a mother of three years old baby, and I want to teach him Bengali as it is our mother tongue. I am really trying to accomplish that at the moment. And we have a language history of dedication and sacrifice, with lives laid down to preserve linguistic uniqueness. I will convey the language's historical importance, and demonstrate a profound feeling of pride and connection to our cultural legacy.
The Bangla language in Bangladesh exemplifies how language not only shapes a people's cultural and national identity but also how far people would go to protect their language rights.
