Assamese grammar/Language- ভাষা

Language, bhaxa (ভাষা) in Assamese is an arrangement of sounds that enables human communication.

Forms
Bhaxa or language has two main forms- spoken and written.

Kothito Bhaxa
Humans arrange the sounds it can make to make sense and thus communicate. This is called spoken language or kothito bhaxa (কথিত ভাষা).

Likhito Bhaxa
The sounds can be represented using symbols. The use of symbols to represent speech is called Written Language or Likhito Bhaxa (লিখিত ভাষা)।

Upo-bhaxa
With time, a language that is spread over a large area can develop different forms in regions. The way the people speak, accent, choice of words and even sentence structures might differ. The regional variations are called Upo-bhaxa (উপ-ভাষা).

Manyo Bhaxa
Among the upo-bhaxas, one is chosen for formal work- books, official documents etc. are written using the chosen one upo-bhaxa. That upo-bhaxa is called Manyo Bhaxa (মান্য ভাষা).

Misro Bhaxa
Sometimes people speaking different languages develop a mixture of the languages that both the groups can understand and use it to communicate with each other, this is called Misro-Bhaxa.
