Chakma script

The Chakma language (Changma Vaj or Changma Khoda) is an Indo-European language spoken in southeastern Bangladesh and neighboring areas of India. Although the Chakma people originally belong to Sakya Clan of Magadha Kingdom (then Pataliputra, present Bihar-Nepal border) and speak a language belonging to the Tibeto-Burman family, some of them have been heavily influenced by speakers of neighboring Chittagonian, an Eastern Indic language closely related to Bengali. Changma Vaj is written in its own script, known as Ojhopath.
