CALCUTTA a part and capital of West bengal. Bengal, the main language is Bengali and the natives are called BENGALIs. Generally corresponding to the area inhabited by speakers of the Bengali language, it is now divided between eastern India and Bangladesh. Today it is mainly divided between the independent nation of Bangladesh (East Bengal), and the Indian federal republic's constitutive state of West Bengal -

Answer is Bengali.

I'm a native of Calcutta now called Kolkata. And i'm called a bengali. Yes we do speak bengali but our bangla is slighty defferent from bagladesis.


aditigsamai
kolkata and calcutta is the same, people here like both names, people of calcutta, who originate from this place and speak bengali are bengalis, everyone else just simply belongs to calcutta whatever language they may speak....oh and yes we are all proudly indian first ... :)

Calcuttans or even Bengalis. All Calcuttans are not Bengalees. Calcutta / Kolkata is a cosmopolitan city. Where the hell does that (answerer) Ramsay J....hail from ???!!! Only idiots call "Bongs". That term Bongs (heard it a lot) is a typical slang and it sucks.
