Sunday, October 3
Well it’s been almost two weeks since I left home. If someone told me it had been a month I would believe them. Its felt like such a long time! I have learned so much in these past weeks. And so many new things have been packed into this little amount of time.
Things about Bangladesh:
- They hit their baby’s and children for fun and as a joke.
- They don’t use their left hand to eat, and they eat with their fingers.
- Looking down is a sign of respect
- women shouldn’t keep eye contact with men for more than a glance
-All the people here are so beautiful!
Common Bangla words/phrases that I say:
(the spelling is not right. I just spelled how it sounded) =)
- “Ami nahm Lisa” My name is Lisa
- “Twome goman acho” How are you
- “Ami ballo achi” I am good
- “Ami tumakay ballobashi” I love you
- “Ahshow” - Come here
- “Boshow” sit
- “ballo” good
- “Na” no / “Heh” Yes
- “Donobahd” Thank you
- “Shoebow ratree” Good night
