Talk:Char (island)

In the Bengali language char refers specifically to temporary islands resulting from accretion that typically form on a river, its banks or its mouth. Millions live on such landscapes in Bangladesh, which are constantly moving due to erosion and accretion. Given that an island generally refers to a permanent geographic feature, and a char is a much more specific phenomenon, it should have a separate page. NJ Husein (talk) 09:10, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
