Do you understand the lesson?
În limba pe care o înveți
Yes/no questions often use কি; wh-words generally stay in place.

Will you come?
Learners may move wh-words like in English or omit কি in unclear yes/no questions.
Same block, different coding
Both languages use this block strongly, but they signal it differently. Focus on form changes, not only meaning.
