Sylheti is the first language of the great majority of British Bangladeshis, who come overwhelmingly from the Sylhet region. The community is one of the largest of its kind in Britain, concentrated in east London, above all in Tower Hamlets around Brick Lane, with sizeable numbers in Birmingham, Oldham and Luton. Sylheti is chiefly a spoken language: formal documents are written in standard Bengali, so most of our Sylheti work is interpreting for NHS, court and Home Office settings, while translation is handled in Bengali. That covers civil documents for settlement and citizenship, tribunal papers, and transcripts assessed by UK ENIC. Sylheti has around 11 million speakers worldwide, most of them in and around Sylhet.
Prism Linguistics provides Sylhetti translation, interpreting and transcription across the UK in 300+ languages. Whether you need a certified document for the Home Office, a court interpreter, an NHS appointment or a business meeting, our vetted native-speaker linguists are ready to help.
