Due to the geographical position, Gunabati is situated in the south-eastern region of Bangladesh. It is bounded by Tripura State of India, the upazilas of Dhaka Division And Chittagong Division. The language of the people of Gunabati Union is mostly influenced by Tripura State of India, the upazilas of Dhaka Division And Chittagong Division. The main features of the language are similar to the other upazilas of Bangladesh. Yet some diversity is found. In the spoken language, the sound of "mahapran dhonni" is absent.[3] This means that there is a trend of simplification of language.
