Dialogue about the national memorial

Dialogue about the national memorial


Raful
Can you please tell me for whom the monument was built?
Raihan
It has been built to show nation’s respect to our valiant freedom fighters.
Raful
It’s very beautiful. I see there is a series of seven towers. What is the significance [মর্ম] of it?
Raihan
The seven towers signify seven stages of our liberation war.
Raful
There are some graves too. Who were they?
Raihan
They were martyred freedom fighters. And then almost 3 million people embraced martyrdom.
Raful
So, your nation sacrificed a lot for independence.
Raihan
Yeah, we are lucky that the freedom-loving people stood against [বিরুদ্ধে] the oppressors then and they came out successful.
Raful
So, how long was the duration of your liberation war?
Raihan
It was only nine months.
Raful
Only nine months! You are lucky to have your independence within a short span of struggle.
Raihan
But our struggle had begun much before the war started actually.
Raful
Thanks a lot for your information. Let’s move to another place.
Raihan
You are always welcome.

Dialogue between two friends focusing on the problems they face in English writing

Dialogue between two friends focusing on the problems they face in English writing


Rahim
As-Salaam-Alaikum; how are you, Jamal?
Jamal
Wa-Alaikum-Salaam; I am fine and what about you?
Rahim
I am also fine by the grace [অনুগ্রহ] of Almighty [মহৎ] Allah. But you did not talk to me for many days. I don’t know why.
Jamal
Actually, My English exam will start after a month. So I am very much worried about it. In fact, I am very weak in written English.
Rahim
English is a foreign [বৈদেশিক] language. So, any student may face this problem.
Jamal
How can we face this problem?
Rahim
You know whenever we face any problem, we need a little patience to solve it.
Jamal
I want to discuss the way to solve the problem.
Rahim
English is not our mother tongue. So at first, we are to build up our vocabulary.
Jamal
How can we build up the vocabulary?
Rahim
Word coming is a good system to build up the word stock. It means you will note down the difficult words in a separate copy. After that, consult the dictionary for meaning.
Jamal
Which dictionary is better?
Rahim
Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of Current English is a useful dictionary.
Jamal
I will purchase it. What more do we need to improve English?
Rahim
For English writing, we have to know structural English as well.
Jamal
What book can we read for this purpose?
Rahim
‘A Practical English Usage’ by Michael Swan is a good English Grammar book. You may consult it.
Jamal
I’ll purchase the book.
Rahim
We must read English regularly and keep writing on some new topics. This is how we can upgrade our creative faculty.
Jamal
Right you are! If we learn vocabulary and grammar properly, they will indeed [নিশ্চয়] help us write any topic correctly.
Rahim
Thanks for sharing.
Jamal
You are most welcome. See you tomorrow.
Rahim
Okay! Bye.
