A small part of the population in Bangladesh are also seen to know and use the language fluently. In the 17th century assamese was the court language of Ahom Kingdom.    It is not clear of how and where the language originated or grown but if we believe the myths it is said that it originated in Old Indo-Aryan dialects.

It is a tradition of seeking blessings from the elders by bowing and touching their feet in a family and presenting the Bihuwan or the Gamusa (গামোছা) cloth, as a gift, to be worn as a symbol of cultural pride. A 'Gamusa' is an indispensable part of Assamese life and culture with its distinctive symbolic significance. The...
