Bengali and English/Inflection Schematics for different POS

Pronoun

• Person
• Number
• Honorifics + Animacy
• Grammatical Case

DOES NOT inflect on

• Gender
• Though it may seem that pronouns inflect with 'টা'/'the' article attached, we consider it a separate word. e.g এ -> এটা. Both having the meaning 'the'. We do not consider this as an inflection, but different word.

Verb

• Tense + Mood
• Honorifics + Animacy
• Negative eg. সে যায় - He goes, সে যায়না - He does not go

DOES NOT inflect on

• number

Noun

• Number
• Animacy
• Case
• Determiner eg. boy - ছেলে, the boy - ছেলেটা

Note:

• The plural form is always implicitly 'definite article(determiner) added', we do need to explicitly add that. eg. বইগুলো can mean both 'books' and 'the book'
