Of the words quoted above, শুতিল is still in use in Durbhāngā. The words করেন্ত, বলেন্ত etc. are used in Orissā. The suffix 'য়া' occurring in the proper names such as শকুনিয়া reminds us of Hindi. The Hindi word আবে changed into য়াবে is still in use in Eastern Bengal. The case-endings as in পরদেশকো লাগিয়া, জলকো লাগিয়া in Mānik Chandra Rājār Gān and ঘরকে গমন in Krittivāsa and কাঁধকে রুমাল in Kriṣṇa Vijay are akin to uses current in Hindi.
