What does মধ্যে mean?
মধ্যে (moddhe) is a Bangla postposition that means in, among, during, between in English.
A postposition meaning 'in, inside, among, between or within', following a noun in the genitive: বাক্সের মধ্যে (baksher moddhe) 'inside the box'. With time words it means 'within' or 'by', as in এক ঘণ্টার মধ্যে (ek ghontar moddhe) 'within an hour'. Learners often drop the -র (-r) genitive ending before it, which sounds wrong to native ears.
