På ditt språk
Present-tense states usually have no overt “be”; past and future use forms such as كان or سيكون.
البيتُ كبير.
The house big.
På språket du lär dig
Present-tense property states often have zero copula, while existence/location uses আছে.
ঘরটি শান্ত।
The room quiet.
Learners may insert an unnecessary equivalent of “is” or omit আছে where existence is needed.
Same block, different coding
Both languages use this block strongly, but they signal it differently. Focus on form changes, not only meaning.
