DW বাংলা

What it actually is

DW's Bengali service covers Europe and global affairs for a South Asian audience, with video and long-form text. Useful mainly as a second news source: the subject matter differs from the Dhaka-centric dailies, so the vocabulary you pick up is different too. Written for adults, not for learners.
