Descrizione
About The Book: A Grammar of the Bengal Language by Nathaniel Brassey Halhed, published in 1778, is one of the earliest scholarly works on the Bengali language. Halhed, a British linguist, and colonial administrator, presented a detailed grammar of Bengali, which he had encountered during his time in India. This work includes an exploration of the language's structure, syntax, and phonetics, providing insights into the Bengali linguistic system. It was groundbreaking for its time and helped pave the way for further linguistic studies in the Indian subcontinent. Halhed's grammar played a significant role in promoting the understanding of Indian languages in the West. The book remains an important historical document in the study of Bengali and Indian languages.
