This review is from: A Practical Bengali Grammar (Hardcover)
Milne's Practical Bengali Grammar is a wonderful resource if you are doing research on Bengali grammar. It is NOT suitable for people who want to learn Bengali. Milne wrote this in 1913 and it was reprinted (with 13 pages of errata still in place) in 1993. His interpretation of grammatical structure is often idiosyncratic and his example sentences far from everyday normal language. He has a lovely section on idiomatic expressions, proverbs etc where you can find all sorts of weird and wonderful things: 'we lose in hake but gain in herring'. In many ways this is a delightful book, but in order to appreciate it you need to know Bengali well and enjoy grammatical speculation. For help with learning Bengali I would recommend something more modern.
