hello everyone and welcome back to English with Lucy
0:13
today I've got a very special guest it is Anu
0:16
from conquer British English
0:18
hello everyone it's a pleasure to be here
0:21
so this is the first
0:23
part of a two-part
0:24
video the second part of the lesson
0:27
is on anu's channel
0:28
the link is in the description box
0:30
today we're going to be looking at the differences
0:33
between British English and Indian English
0:37
I grew up in bedfordshire
0:38
in England but I live in Cambridge Shire
0:41
and I speak with a modern RP
0:43
accent sometimes with a bit of estery
0:45
as well and yeah I actually speak with a similar accent to Lucy's
0:49
um but during the course of this video I'm sure you'll be able to
0:51
hear the differences there because I actually grew up in London
0:54
and I also have hints of Multicultural
0:56
London English um shortened down to Emily
0:59
in my in my in my accent too
1:01
and um just to let you know I'm of Tamil ethnicity
1:04
and we just wanted to also mention you know India
1:06
is such a diverse
1:08
country and the population
1:09
is is huge there's over 1
1:12
billion people living in India
1:14
and just to put that in perspective if you kind of compare India to
1:16
Europe um just the number of nations in Europe and and the languages that
1:21
they speak you will notice
1:22
some differences in in the Indian English that you use
1:26
um so we'd love to hear um whether you use any
1:30
word slightly differently and we'd love to hear your thoughts on that in the
1:32
comment section yes definitely this is all about learning and sharing so please do
1:37
use that comment section to tell us how you speak and the words that
1:40
you use what I'd love to do is um give you a taste of
1:43
what one form of the Indian accent sounds like in when we discussing these
1:46
words so yes please do so if you give some of the examples
1:49
in that accent I'd love to do that that would be really cool cool
1:52
another important thing to note is that Anu has created a PDF
1:56
for this lesson with all of the vocabulary
1:59
differences and some extra quizzes and interesting
2:02
things um so you can click on the link in the description box to
2:05
download that for both
2:06
videos okay so the first one
2:09
is this one it's a vegetable
2:11
is it um I would call this
2:14
okra we would call it
2:17
lady fingers that's so funny because lady fingers
2:21
is actually the name of a spongy
2:23
biscuit oh really yes it's kind of the bottom layer of a tiasu
2:27
sometimes do you like do you like the taste of uh
2:30
lady fingers in teracy
2:32
I mean the vegetable
2:33
yeah I love it
2:35
um honestly I think it's quite a boring
2:37
biscuit yeah um I think that's really funny
2:40
I mean you can see why it's called that can't you but I've um
2:43
grown up eating okra
2:44
lady fingers and it's got a very slimy texture to it
2:48
um but yeah it's using a lot of our dishes
2:50
yeah it's not something
2:51
that we cook with a lot here
2:53
but we absolutely love
2:55
curries um I think we've actually named
2:58
the chicken Tik masala
3:00
as our national dish it was voted as the British national dish
3:03
so that's how much we love it
3:05
yeah so the next word we've got for you
3:09
is this one bringel
3:12
you call it bringel bringel
3:14
that's so funny I wonder where that comes from
3:16
um we call this obene
3:18
but this is quite a controversial
3:21
world yes that too yes that
3:25
too no this is quite a controversial
3:28
word um because in American English
3:32
they call it eggplant
3:35
because eggplantegg eggplant because the flower Bud looks like an egg have you ever
3:40
seen oh I didn't I've never seen it
3:41
I was that why
3:43
cool we call it oine
3:46
bringel and bringel I'm going to start calling it bringel
3:49
I'm going to start calling it eggplant
3:50
eggplant I love the accent
3:52
all right the next one
3:54
is this it's the ingredient that makes up a lot of curries
3:58
and I eat it for breakfast
4:00
a lot um we call it
4:02
yogurt in Indian English it's often called kurd
4:06
which is really interesting because kurd actually has a different meaning I guess in
4:09
British English when we imagine kurd
4:11
yes do we imagine different
4:13
consistency yeah isn't kurd like the creamy part of milk exactly yeah in Indian
4:18
English you would often hear phrases like could you add some C to my
4:21
dish or I'm just going to pop out and buy some CD
4:24
not pop out cuz I guess pop out is a
4:27
is a British saying
4:29
I'm going to go to to the shops and buy some CD
4:31
interesting but like a dessert
4:33
yogurt so strawberry flavored yogurt
4:37
you wouldn't say a pot of CD
4:38
no I don't think he would no okay
4:40
interesting the next one we've got is a really interesting one because I've grown
4:44
up hearing it all the time
4:46
um and it's often being a source of argument
4:48
in the household this one
4:50
is L or lack
4:54
okay yeah so we don't have a picture for this one because I need
4:57
to guess what it is
4:58
l L like a lar but it's not it's not spelled with a r
5:02
it's spelled l a k h
5:05
okay L something to do with luck
5:09
nope something to do with the bird
5:12
it it kind of sounds like it right so one lack
5:15
is a unit in the Indian numbering
5:17
system it actually represents
5:19
a 100,000 in conversation
5:21
you might hear someone say I bought that house for 10 ls
5:25
so that would be a million pound yeah exactly CU 10 * 100,000
5:29
is million right I just think also it's amazing the way you can switch
5:33
between those two actors
5:35
that's so cool um so does that is that maybe because
5:39
rupees are a smaller
5:41
value so you're more likely to have something
5:44
perhaps because we would
5:45
100,000 is a lot absolutely
5:48
yeah that could be that could be a viable
5:50
um reason I think there might be a difference in the numbering systems
5:54
as well across across
5:56
the different nations so that will
5:58
influence um how we
6:00
think about numbers and then the term that we attribute to a particular
6:04
sum of of money or a particular number
6:07
amazing cuz I just would have no idea
6:09
if someone told me 10 lck in my household
6:12
when we're talking about numbers
6:14
um my parents always use
6:16
LA and my siblings and I we use
6:20
a 100,000 or a million
6:22
and we often have
6:25
miscommunication when we're when we're talking about numbers it leads to a lot of
6:28
confusion in the household
6:30
even within your own household
6:32
yeah all right this next one
6:35
I wonder if you can tell what it is from the picture
6:38
in British English we would refer to this as marriage
6:41
mhm now you would often hear this being referred to as an
6:44
alliance um sounds really formal doesn't it
6:48
forming in an ey it does
6:49
um but yeah that's often a term
6:51
that would you also use marriage as well yeah for sure
6:55
um but in terms of an example sentence
6:57
someone could say that these two people are seeking an alliance
7:01
or they're looking for an alliance
7:03
that's so funny cuz I would think that would be a business person
7:06
looking to join forces with someone else
7:08
um when actually it describes an emotional
7:11
connection and an official one as well
7:13
let us know if um marriage is often referred to in a different
7:17
way in from the part of India that you're from
7:19
so uh the next one is you know when it's a rainy day and
7:23
you you just want to catch that bus you're going to be waiting at
7:26
a bus how would you say it a bus stop bus stop
7:29
in Indian English you often hear it as bus
7:33
stand or a bus halt
7:35
it makes sense yeah halt is kind of a more formal word
7:39
yeah like a more oldfashioned
7:40
word for stop um in British English
7:44
and then a stand well you stand there don't you
7:46
so yeah and I guess they've maybe referring to the actual stand of the
7:50
the poll of the the bus signs on the top
7:54
the signage if I heard bus stand I'd know exactly
7:57
what is meant by it absolutely
7:58
but we definitely tend to say bus stop yeah
8:01
okay this next one is the word we use to address
8:05
a man in a position
8:07
of Authority for example a teacher
8:10
or your boss I mean
8:12
in British English we would just say
8:15
first name terms for the boss
8:17
or mister and then their surname
8:19
for a teacher I remember
8:21
Mr purum was my favorite teacher at school so I would just call him
8:25
Mr purum or Mr
8:27
yeah that's absolutely right in in London I've you know grown up calling
8:30
my teachers mister Mr Smith for example
8:33
in India you would refer to your male teacher as sir
8:36
and that's that's quite common place and your boss as Sir as well
8:40
um so with the accent it sounds something like this sir
8:44
so you would hear
8:45
an Indian person saying s can you please help me with the homework
8:50
please sorry I was just so in love with what you were saying
8:54
I really really like the accent
8:56
it is just so gentle
8:58
is it like it's
8:59
like caressing the sound
9:01
we do use the word sir we do don't we
9:03
but I would say for a boss
9:05
it's too formal that's almost showing too much inequality
9:07
I would think um
9:09
but in SCH some schools
9:11
it depends on the school's regulations
9:13
maybe some private schools
9:14
places like that would insist on a more formal code yeah that's true uh
9:18
but I never had to call my teachers sir at school
9:21
um what about female teachers
9:22
females um so we so in British English we would say Madam wouldn't in
9:27
a really formal setting I'm just wondering whether sir and madam
9:30
is used in India because
9:31
in an email you would say dear sir Madam
9:34
in Indian English we would refer to a male teacher
9:37
as Sir how do you guys refer to your female teachers at school or
9:41
your female boss yeah that would be really interesting to know because we say
9:45
miss or misses depending if they're depending on if they're married or not
9:50
yeah I'd like to know that the next one
9:52
is all about how we refer to members of our family so Lucy if
9:55
I was to say that I met up with my brother
9:59
yesterday what how would you
10:01
understand that that you met up with your male sibling
10:04
my male sibling who is my immediate
10:06
my immediate sibling right yes has the same parents mhm
10:09
in Indian English brother could also mean
10:12
my male cousin interesting so you do you use the word cousin still
10:17
no so this is why when we speak to
10:21
a person who's speaking with British English
10:23
we would have to clarify
10:25
that and say cousin
10:26
brother even though it means cousin
10:29
um you would often hear in Indian English someone referring to their cousin
10:33
as their cousin brother
10:35
interesting well we would just say cousin
10:37
MH yeah or cousin sister
10:40
if it was a female
10:41
okay yeah yeah it's just the same for us
10:44
cousin okay the next one
10:47
is this in British English
10:50
we say boot or car boot
10:53
yeah in Indian English
10:54
we say Dicky so
10:56
could you put the luggage in the dicky
10:59
or could you could you lend me a hand and uh put the luggage
11:02
in there Dicky please
11:04
awesome and we've also seen a couple of other spellings for it like DIY
11:07
as well I guess it just depends on the pronunciation
11:10
I guess so as we mentioned earlier lots of different Indian accents so I
11:13
guess that's what influences
11:14
the spelling then yeah
11:16
and um again this is another word that is also different in American English
11:20
they call it a trunk
11:21
they do don't they I've always imagined an elephant trunk when I right here
11:24
trunk so don't want to put any luggage up there yeah
11:28
oh God ever so the next one that I wanted to introduce you to
11:35
is how we use the word current
11:36
in our day-to-day life
11:39
okay if I said current what would you understand that as
11:41
current is in in the moment
11:43
o that is a good homophone isn't it um yes
11:46
the current for it it is current in the current moment
11:50
in the current moment Lucy and I are
11:52
filming but this version of current is used in day-to-day
11:57
life for something else do you want to take take a guess
12:01
current as in like an ocean current or electricity
12:06
current yes so we use the word current
12:09
to replace electricity I could advise you be careful of the current Lucy
12:13
when you are plugging in the plugin to the the socket
12:16
be careful of the electricity
12:17
yes perfect awesome I never knew that the next one is a word used
12:21
to describe an illness
12:23
yeah um in British English we say
12:26
diabetes and in Indian English you could hear this being referred to as
12:31
sugar and this is commonly used in the state of
12:34
tamaru interesting and is this because
12:37
diabetes or some forms of diabetes
12:39
are brought on by excess consumption of suar absolutely
12:42
absolutely very interesting and how do you pronounce it again so I would pronounce
12:46
this as sugar so
12:48
um do not eat too many sweets
12:50
because you could develop sugar
12:52
interesting the next one we've got on the screen
12:55
in Indian English it could be referred to as the washroom
12:58
but could also be referred to as the toilet
13:01
too um but what about British English
13:04
well we also say
13:05
toilet um I know that's something that in American English
13:08
they find a bit disgusting
13:09
because it's too specific
13:10
to the actual toilet
13:12
but we say the toilet
13:13
or the L that's slang
13:16
I always say the L
13:17
I think I heard you call it the L I call it the L
13:19
as well um yeah
13:22
yes I don't think washroom
13:24
is that common but that's not to say it's never used in British English
13:27
that's right yeah the next next one is this one
13:31
in British English we call it
13:33
crisps mhm I know that's quite a hard sound the SPs
13:37
sound crisps what's what do you call it in Indian English
13:41
chips it's commonly referred to as chips chips
13:44
and what about fried potatoes
13:46
that are served warm
13:49
ah also chips yeah I guess so
13:53
everything so the next one we've got here
13:56
is referred to as
13:58
capsicum now how would you refer to it we would call this Peppers
14:02
or red pepper green pepper
14:05
yellow pepper um but then surely that gets confusing
14:08
the kind of the pepper that you put on your fish and chips
14:11
yes but then the pepper we put on
14:14
like as a seasoning
14:15
is an uncountable noun
14:17
so I'd say can I have some pepper
14:20
that would be the the spice or it's not necessarily a spice the seasoning
14:24
if I ask for a pepper
14:26
I'm asking for a capsicum
14:27
that is a fantastic tip
14:29
so that's the end of the first part of this video we have got
14:32
