Persian grammar edit

Thank you, UserNumber, for creating a very interesting article about this register of the Bengali language. It should be mentioned in the latter article, but I'll leave that to editors with more expertise in this area. I have just one question about one statement: "Dobhashi [...] could grammatically change to adapt to Persian grammar". Concrete examples would be helpful here: is it about syntax, specialized constructions like ezafe, or other aspects of the grammar? –Austronesier (talk) 12:12, 2 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Austronesier, yes syntax and ezafe. Thank you for informing me, I shall change it once I find a reliable source to back it up.UserNumber (talk) 12:17, 2 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Script vs language edit

It says "Many Dobhashi poetry profess to be 'Bengali', because it was printed in Bengali script, but the 'language' was significantly Hindustani language".Sreenivasan, Ramya (2017-05-01).
