Banga-Kamrupi language[change source]

Research on the origin of Bengali language has been going on for many years now, the fact that has emerged through modern research is that two languages have been created directly from Banga-Kamrupi: 1) Bengali, 2) Assamese. But from where this Banga-Kamrupi language came, it should be known.

One important point needs to be mentioned here, that is - "Pundrabardhan" area, we all know that there was a very prosperous kingdom called Pundrabardhan in ancient India. Parts of that kingdom later came to be known as Barendrabhumi and even later as Gaur. We all know from history that the ruler of ancient prosperous Pundrabardhan was Poundra Kshatriya. These Poundra Kshatriyas were defeated by the Magadha king Mahapadmananda in the 4th century AD and took refuge in Western Kamrup (Kamrup Ratnapith), Nepal and Orissa. So still living in Sambalpur area of Orissa state and the language is also Rajvanshi. As a result, the language of Poundra Kshatriya people (Gouri Prakrit or Magadhi Prakrit) (300-200BC) spread and mixed with the languages of those places to create new languages. The Pundra Apabhramsa (Gouri Apabhramsa or Magadhi Apabhrasa) language (400–600AD) was formed due to the mixing of this Poundra language with other languages.)

After this Apabhramsa language evolved from 1) Bihari (Maithili), 2) Old Oriya, 3) Banga-Kamrupi / Banga-Assomiya (Western Kamrupi / Rajbanshi) (500AD).

As a result of the migration of Brahmins to Gauda, the language of North India, Maithili language and the language of Magadha combined with the local language of Gauda (the language of the Pundras) to form Bengali. It should be noted here - Bhaskar Bama occupied Gauda and gave land to the Brahmins in large numbers. Maithili gave land to Brahmin as Kama. Later, a large number of these Brahmins migrated to East Bengal and Rarbanga.

This was followed by the amalgamation of “Banga-Kamrupi + Maithili + North Indian language to form the Bangla language" and the amalgamation of “Banga-Kamrupi + Maithili + Eastern Kamrupi + Bhotchinyo to form the Assamese language.”

Among Bengali linguists, some linguists identified Kamarupi language and Barendri language as dialects of Bengali. That has been followed till now. But later modern native and foreign linguists, through modern research, have succeeded in proving that Kamarupi language and Barendri language are not dialects of Bengali language. Modern linguists have not only succeeded in proving, they have also proved that Kamarupi and Barendri are the same language.

According to Prove linguists, two languages arose directly from Bengali-Kamrupi / Bengali-Assamese language. 1) Bengali language and 2) Assamese language. Meanwhile, modern linguists have proved that the Bengali-Kamrupi language is Rajbanshi / Kamtapuri language. 103.217.230.122 (talk) 09:14, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
