No I did not have ... In fact I do not have Opera in my
Linux Box so used a Windows machine to see the page. Seen
the screen shot sent by you. Immediately I remembered the
discussion I had with Atanu last week - the barrier of
Yuktakshar in Bangla. Google is trying to overcome that by
breaking the Yuktakshars and using "hashant" - Its a
pleasing experience to see those Bangla words on the screen
- at the same time I am trying to recall all those
"Anandabazar" controversies on use of Yuktakshar. It is also
true that anything you do - won't be accepted by all. I am
very very proud of my language but in this project I have
started thinking why it is so difficult (A layman's
perspective).
