- Bengali has three distinct levels of 'you' based on intimacy and status. Using the wrong one in আমিও তোমাকে ভালোবাসি can accidentally sound either condescending or overly distant.
- In Bengali, the word order is 'Subject-Object-Verb', meaning the verb ভালোবাসি (bhalobashi) actually comes at the very end of the sentence, unlike in English.
