সেইটো কৰিব লাগিব means “that has to be done”, and আপুনি ইয়াত থাকিব লাগিব means “you have to stay here”.

How It Works

Verb-িব form“Has to”
কৰ doকৰিবকৰিব লাগিব
থাক stayথাকিবথাকিব লাগিব
খা eatখাবখাব লাগিব
যা goযাবযাব লাগিব

A consonant stem adds -িব (কৰ becomes কৰিব), and a vowel stem adds -ব (খা becomes খাব).

The word for the person stays plain: মই দৰৱ খাব লাগিব “I have to take medicine”. A name takes -এ: ভাস্কৰে ফৰ্মখনত চহী কৰিব লাগিব “Bhaskar has to sign the form”.

The two words often swap. লাগে often says what is expected or right, as in কেনেকৈ কৰিব লাগে “how it is done”. লাগিব often names a job that comes up, as in মই আজি ডাক্তৰৰ লগত কথা পাতিব লাগিব “I have to talk to the doctor today”.

Examples (5)

  1. সেইটো কৰিব লাগিব।

    That has to be done.

    কৰিব is the -িব form, and লাগিব means “is needed”.

  2. আপুনি ইয়াত থাকিব লাগিব।

    You have to stay here.

    থাকিব লাগিব works the same way for আপুনি.

  3. মই দৰৱ খাব লাগিব।

    I have to take medicine.

    After the vowel stem খা, the form is খাব.

  4. ভাস্কৰে ফৰ্মখনত চহী কৰিব লাগিব।

    Bhaskar has to sign the form.

    The name takes -এ: ভাস্কৰে.

    How long do I have to wait?
