khoy - where
ar - Above ^^
tumda - Above ^^
khoi - Where
dako - I think you meant takho which means live
sylhetoh - In sylhet
So the first sentence roughly translates into "Are you all good / Are you all OK?"
And the second sentence roughly translates into "Brothers and sisters where is your hometown/village (in Bangladesh) and where do you live in Sylhet?"
LOL - I tried my hardest to translate but of course these translations blatantly HAVE mistakes so PLEEEEASE dont shoot me
And btw..... I only visisted Bangladesh once when I was young and don't know where my bari is....I know...................that's shamefulffended:
I'm just waiting for Amma (mum in bengali) to come home so I can ask her
