yes, Urdu has traditionally been present in Bengali Muslim families as first or second language (besides among the Bangladeshi Mohajirs) and it is hilarious when indians try to taunt Bangladeshis by call Urdu-speaking Bangladeshis as Arabic wannabe. in fact they would have no problem calling Bangladeshis as Arab wannabe because of our practice of minimal Arabic as Muslims.Regarding Urdu, I don't really care if Bengalis speak the language or not, our language is Bengali. I don't like the standardised Bengali or the proper Bengali, it sounds too soft, I like Sylheti but I'm biased here as it is my mother tongue, but also because it sounds very rough and so it's hard to identify by people not familiar with the language.
