Excerpt from A Dictionary in Assamese and English
India, spoken by Hindoos, religious and scientific terms are mostly of Sanscrit origin, modified more or less by the peculiarities of' each dialect. But the grammars of these dialects are different; hence they are distinct languages, notwithstanding they have many words in common. So in the case before us. Both Assamese and Bengali borrow largely from the Sanscrit, but the grammars are quite different, as will be readily seen by comparing them together. It might as well be said that French and Italian are one language, because both are sprung from the Latin, as that Bengali and As samese are one, because they borrow in common from the Sanscrit.
