মুখবন্ধ


Preface


As we know, a proverb is a well-known sentence or a phrase that the people often quote and that gives advice or tells something about human life and problem in general. It varies mostly from society-to-society, nation-to-nation, language-to-language, country-to-country and even within a part of these, because lifestyle in every community distinctly differs from each other. Therefore, collecting proverbs from our social life in Bengali and either translate them into English or match in regards their intrinsic meaning with the that in English is particularly a difficult task.

From my experience, I realize that proverbs are liberally considered in various competitive examinations. But there is no sufficient collection of proverbs in any book available in our market. Sensing this reality, I dear to expand my hand in such a difficult task.

Bengali alphabetical arrangement may fell you more convenient to search your desired sentence. Moreover, I Added several Pages Like English Proverbs with Meaning, Ancient Bengali Proverbs with Meaning (প্রাচীন প্রবাদ-অর্থ সহ), Proverbs Collection (প্রবাদ সমগ্র) and 18+ Proverbs etc. I update this blog in Unicode so that it can be read with any devices like Mobile Phones, Tabs, Smart Phones, Laptops as well as PCs. 

Very soon cross-references will be added at the end of the Bengali Sentence in order to ensure your free accessibility and to reach at the most appropriate sentence, which will also make this blog unique. Cross-reference also helps you to understand the differences between the two apparently similar proverbs.

Since proverbs are collected through a careful survey of society and books (grammar and translation, novels and stories, dictionaries and other reference books), there is a little scope of creativity. Therefore I would like to thank all my friends who helps me in this task and to the general mass who bring these proverbs and maxims into practice from generation to generation.

The success of my labor will depend upon your satisfaction.
