Chittagonian (চাটগাঁইয়া saṭgãia or চিটাইঙ্গা siṭaiṅga)[1][2] or Chittagonian Bengali[9][10] is an Indo-Aryan language spoken in parts of the Chittagong Division in Bangladesh.[5] Its speakers identify with Bengali culture and the Bengali language.[11] Chittagonian and Standard Bengali are not inherently mutually intelligible, although it is considered as a nonstandard Bengali dialect.[5] Chittagonian is considered to be a separate language by some linguists.[12] It is mutually intelligible with Rohingya and to a lesser extent with Noakhailla. It is estimated (2006) that Chittagonian has 13 million speakers, principally in Bangladesh.[5]
