Sylheti

The Sylhetis are an Indo-Aryan ethnocultural group that are associated with the Sylhet region in South Asia, specifically in northeast of Bengal presently divided between the Sylhet Division of Bangladesh, and the Karimganj district of Assam, India. Sylheti is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by an estimated 11 million people, primarily in the Sylhet Division of Bangladesh, the Barak Valley and Hojai district of Assam, and North Tripura and Unakoti district of Tripura, India. It is a member of the Bengali-Assamese languages, and is called either a dialect of Bengali or a separate language. Although linguists consider it an independent language, for many speakers, it forms the diglossic vernacular while standard Bengali forms the codified lect. Historically, it was written with the Sylhet Nagri alphabet but now commonly uses the Bengali alphabet.
