The word “Nyaka” means someone who throws a lot of tantrums and Bengalis love to call each other “Nyaka”. “Nyakamo korish na” is another way to ask someone not to throw tantrums. Mostly used to lovingly humiliate the other person to do what you want them to do.
We chose the funniest and most humiliating version of this expression. Bengalis love to humiliate lovingly, do this with your Bengali friend and catch them off-guard 😉 After this they are bound to do what you want them to do 😁.
This series is meant for the non-Bengalis to keep a little bit of Bengali culture in their hearts and to bring a smile to the Bengalis.
When we say Bengali, we mean all Bengalis in the world, be it India, Bangladesh or anywhere in the world. These posts are about the emotions that a Bengali feels, which mostly remain the same in the hearts of all Bengalis, irrespective of the dialect being used to express those emotions.
As obvious, a Bengali doesn’t need to know “how to be a Bengali”, therefore it is only logical that a person who is not a Bengali (in this case Basil) can demonstrate the “how to’s” after learning the mannerisms from a Bengali (in this case Mango). The intention is to bring out a little bit of Bengali culture with each episode in the series. Bengalis reading this do reach out to us and tell us an aspect of Bengali culture that you would like to put in front of the world and we will try work on them. Oh and don’t forget to follow to see how the series progresses, do remember We are because YOU are! 🤗
