The Santali is one of the ancient languages of the Austro-Asiatic branch of the Austric language group. The Santali language is also considered by many linguists to be of Kol-Munda, Agneous or Kerwari origin. Recent linguists have proved that the Bengali language has been heavily influenced by Santali words. And about sixty percent of the deshi words in Bengali are adopted from or derived from Santali words. As a result, Santali is unquestionably the oldest language."Charyapad" is the ancient sign of Bengali language. The birth and development of the Bengali language are at the hands of the Charyapad. Scholars believe the Charyapad reigned from the 10th to the 12th centuries.In linguistics, Dr. Suniti Kumar Chatterjee has shown that long before the arrival of Aryan languages in Bengal , the people of this country were using Kol or Austric, or some Dravidian language. The Bengal country of the Ganges valley and large parts of central India were largely inhabited by Austric speaking Austroloids. Their language and culture were all present. Even the name "Banga Desh" is of Austric origin, as are some Santali words. "Bonga Dishom"(Santali)>Banga Desham(Sanskrit)>Banga Desh(Bengali). "Linguists believe that the Santali language has influenced the grammar of Bengali," said Dr. Sukumar Sen.But knowledge of Santali is essential for deep discussion of Bengali language." So, Santali language influenced the Bengali language, it can be said without doubt.
