Hello,

please first read carefully articles about translation on NVDA's github wiki and then join NVDA translation list where you can search existing Bengali maintainer if there is someone. He/she would incorporate your suggested changes into appropriate file. if there is no one, then you can become a bengali maintainer and start to translate NVDA, when you would resieved and accept assembla invitation sent to you by one of admins of translation list and system.
hope, it helps.

It seems Bengali is sort of a special case - see #4410 especially comments 5 and 13. To recap there is no interest in translating NVDA into Bengali whereas there was demand to have Bengali letters reported so it was decided to commit these symbol files directly to Git as not to create unneeded work in the translations system.

How much time do you think translating to Bengali would require? This software is advertised on Bangladesh gov site as a screen reading solution so this is worrying

Despite being unmaintained given the character description is already there, wouldn't it make more sense to merge them?

Side question: where can I find out how good espeak ng supports Bengali?

@Oymate, can you indicate the reason why you have closed this PR.
According to #12502 (comment), it seems it's a valid case to merge these modifications via GitHub and not via the SVN repo.
I am not qualified however to judge of the content of this PR, knowing nothing about Bengali language.

@CyrilleB79 I mainly didn't keep this open, because the devs seems not interested to merge this unless someone does full work on speech synthesis in Bangla. It really won't be any different since the char description is already here just not updated.

@Oymate there has not yet been any comment from NVAccess core dev in this PR, just from contributors (even if some of them are quite active).
NVAccess priorize PRs as they wantand can . But being low priority does not mean uninteresting.
Also, NVAccess will review and merge PRs when they are set ready, i.e. not in draft state anymore. This PR is currently still in draft state.
