It is also one of the 22 scheduled languages of India.  With 205 million speakers, Bengali is the seventh most spoken native language in the world by population.  Dictionaries from the early 20th century attributed slightly more than half of the Bengali vocabulary to native words (i.e., naturally modified Sanskrit words, corrupted forms of Sanskrit words, and loanwords from non-Indo-European languages), about 30 percent to unmodified Sanskrit words, and the remainder to foreign words.
