About this phrase

Literally

my age thirty year

When to use it

This is the standard way to state your age. You can replace trish with any other number. In casual conversation, people often drop the word bochor (year) and just say Amar boyosh trish. To ask someone else, use Apnar boyosh koto? for a formal setting or Tomar boyosh koto? for friends.

How it feels

Neutral and informative, commonly used in introductions or family discussions.

Formality
