Hi Lucy, Can i be your parmanent student with all your premium courses in free of cost 🤣
Lakhs is there but if you put 100 lakhs its 1 crore or 10 million

It's mostly like an alliance in india.
In India Every Single Person has their Own Accent
Not to mention the accent of people who visited America for a week and come back with British accent 😂

Absolutely 😂😂😂
that's why Indian English is beautiful
True😆
Oh yea
As an Indian living in India I just learned for the 1st time that we call MARRIAGE as ALLIANCE ... Hmm Interesting...
right me too
Me too
South India especially in Tamil Nadu, alliance is the only word they use for the seeking marriage.
Lol I want to enter multiple alliances. 😂
Misunderstanding, alliance means teammates(V: making teammates)
Bro "marriage" is called "marriage" or "wedding" in Indian English. "Alliance" is a term for "relationship" or "engagement"
right
yes mostly we hear or read wedding even on invitations.
he proly just wanna showoff his Indianity
@@mysterioservierdimensional yea lol
@@laavanya2335 he is a pakistani
In India, we call it marriage or wedding, I never heard anyone saying alliance
Me too buddy
Yeah .. 💯
Same bro
It is very common in the places that follow an arranged marriage system. This word will decline obviously but a few years ago that term would have used when 2 families come and agree on a few things before the event
Alliance means seeing the 'girl or groom' for marriage.
We indians Have Hybrid English Which is Mix of All Kinds of English 😂😂
@@KyleBc95 incorrect?
I'm sorry what?

nahhhhhh. not cockney
Yeah... We do ✌
Actually we Indians use both ' bus stand ' and ' bus stop ' . Both have slightly different meaning.
Bus stop is a place were bus formally stop.
Bus stand is a place where you, if go, can get buses to almost every root. It is same as a bus station/depot.
Actually a bus stand is a transport corporation approved halt for a bus, which goes through that route and a bus stop can be used for some organisation or schools, like if there's a school and they have a transportation system the would assign some spot where the child has to wait for his bus or whatever, that would be bus stop in my opinion...
bruh its not root its route..... or do you mean root from plants?
@@grawp_coder1737 I thought I do write in my essay but it's 'your opinion'😂😂
@@Bangel_pro123 lmfao
In Sri Lanka, we use "bus stand" to call the place that all the buses have been stopped until the next turn and we use "Bus halt" to call the "bus stop"
Curd is not a substitute word for yogurt. Though both Yogurt and Curd look similar in appearance, there’s a distinct difference in their taste, texture as well as preparation.
i second this
Never heard anyone call it “alliance” here in India, everyone calls it “marriage”
Exactly. Who says alliance?
Or a wedding
exactly
in Tamilnadu we both use word alliance when they search for partner , you can here marriage will refer the wedding ceremony
Yes 😁
No-one in India calls a marriage as an Alliance.
While reading the written updates of serials i read many time alliance
Similarly no one in India calls fried potatoes as crips mostly it is called French Fries or Fries
It's also used in Indian courts, when talking about Marriage.
It is called alliance at the time of arranged marriage
I think people in the Southern region of India do call it alliance
My mom was educated in a convent school run by Irish Missionaries in Kolkata. So the vocabulary she developed was quite similar to the ones the Indian rep spoke.
Also being a Wren and Martin initiate myself, I did use Alliance at one point to denote a marriage taking place.
But as I moved around during studies, my vocabulary changed accordingly.
So I always referred to electricity as Current, and I believe many Bengalis to this as well, but in Rajasthan and the neighbouring states, it is referred to as "Light".
Marriage is marriage, dikki is being slowly replaced by trunk, though it is an Indian word (notice I didn't write a specific language), and washrooms is not often said, people refere to them as bathrooms (even though it only has a loo and a urinal) and/or toilets (informally).
I'm from Kolkata
@@rubymukherjee4307 shune bhalo laglo.
@@Sun-Hashira Nobody calls it alliance.
Beautiful accents of different nations...
The way Lucy uses the word is so good and am in love with her pronounciation
Fun Fact: India is the most powerful word that can use in a TH-cam Title 😀
Yes lol. That brings the whole Indian community in the comments section 🤣
Damn True....The country With A Huge Society Who Loves The Nation Is Always Curious to know what others thinks about Our Beloved Nation😉
And The Whole Country Rushes Into The Video 🥴😌
Wow rude m Indian
For sure
Yeah true. Mention the word and we'll swarm ya ! Haha.
Being an Indian kid, I never actually had known about something called yoghurt..after seeing some advertisements on the telivision, I actually bought one for me and soon realised it was nothing but dahi (curd)😂
Omg 😂😂
Same😂😂😂😂
What ? Not possible !
I thought it was like sweet lassi......
Obviously
7:30 Bus stand: The place where all the buses start(begin) and stop(end) in a town or city.
Bus stop: Places where a bus would stop on a road when its on the way to its destination.
I do work with Indians in America and have witnessed how different some words they use compared to what we use here, I myself do have a mix of British accent and words with American and for current I would say electricity and often times power... Some confusion would arise with current maybe flow of sorts...it's so enriching to hear all these ways to refer to everyday situations. Many thanks for the vid.
No nobody use the word "Alliance " in India .....We always say it" Marriage or wedding "
Wedding
@@thescentofsoil.436 yes marriage or wedding but nobody say alliance
@@santuroy1045 yes is that guy really Indian?? I have a doubt 😂😂😂😂
ya bro
Wedding...not alliance. Find a real Indian for these videos
The funniest one is 'Dierhea' .In India It is called 'Loose motion'😂
haha.. ur right
We do say diarrhoea though quite a few times
Only north Indians
😂😂true
@@rintu4569 umm... No. We do say loose motion occasionally in the south as well. But usually we say diarrhoea
It's really helping for that person who has already good in English
I never heard anyone use "alliance" for "marriage" in india.
UK: "bringal? That's so wired"
Also UK: "aubergine"
Aubergine sounds like some chemical name
It is originally french word
Eggplant go brrrrrrr
I love how you spelt “brinjal” and “weird” incorrectly but then spelt “aubergine” correctly 😅.
@@khushi-4900 how 😂🤣
In India, we call it bus stand, I never heard anyone saying bus halt
Edit:thank you so much for the likes guys
Thats why it has a slash "bus stand/halt"
@@christianlauren5883 but I've never heard anyone say bus halt. Could be just me idk.
@@lebercoatlebercoat1522 maybe its because of the quarantine. You cant communicate much LOL you might've not remembered it 😂
@@lebercoatlebercoat1522 same and even auto rickshaw wala and bus conductors use the word bus stand instead of halt.
Me too
I am sri lankan we refer mostly to Indian english but.we do say quite different words too
In Germany we don’t make a difference between a married boss or teacher. We just say „Frau“ which means lady. E.g. when you talk to Mrs Schmidt you just say „Frau Schmidt“.
"Marriage" isn't called "alliance" in India , it's just called "marriage" or a wedding . Also "electricity" is often replaced with the word "light" (bcz electricity is responsible for lighting the bulbs 😅) so when electric supply cuts off , we say "light's gone"
Correct
Hey I see you're a GTA fan 😁
Power has gone
In Bengal we call it ‘current’ for some reason but yes electricity is the right term.
In our area we say it " current"
But the fact is Every Indian's English vocabulary and pronunciation is a whole mixup of US..Australia...UK...and others 😂😂
Yes
It's true . ☺
Yes
Yeah
Lol that's true

From meme 😂
Here in India they call male Professor “Sir” and female Professor “Ma’am”.
Behind their back we call them @ssholes.
In my place (India) we call female school teacher as "miss" regardless she's married or not
Ma'am is short form of madam
Same her in the Philippines
Ma'am is an abbreviation of madam bruh
I love English. Often times I find it difficult to understand native American accent in telephone conversations whereas native English is quite easy.
A "Native American" refers to the ethnic group that has been living in the Americas from pre-Columbian times - the Incas, Aztecs, Iroquois, Mohawks, Senecas etc.
The Indian man has such beautiful mesmerizing eyes that I had a heard time listening as I was looking at his eyes
In India , We would refer to female teachers as "Ma'am/Miss"
Great point! I always think it sounds so polite. Sometimes 'ma'am' makes me feel a bit old hahaha
@@EnglishwithLucy ikr
Yes, that's true!
Also In India, marriage is more commonly used.
Yep...That's true
@@EnglishwithLucy but it's a great way for showing immense respect.(:)
No ones calls marriage an alliance in India.
Mostly its wedding and at times even bedding 😂😂

Female teacher : 1)Miss (unmarried woman) or maa'm
2) Madam (Married one)

In India, Bus stand referred as all buses halted. Bus stop referred as pick up the people from place to place.
The thing tho with India is that we speak hundreds of languages within the country itlsef with different grammar patterns and phonetics so our English accents within and vocabulary varies a lot even sometimes we will be confused by each other's english LoL

The Southern Indian accent is way different than the northern Indian accent. ( just to put it out there.)
Lol,shut up,every state has different accent,its not about north south
No one calls Alliance. This man has gone high!
@@prachishardul5380 we do use it. Especially in arrange marriage setting.
Tamil accent is stark different while malyali accent is much like hindi accent. And kannada accent is just like most of western accent. So it's not about north south at all.
Like mizo and naga accents is pretty different too.
@@Hasimazak188 dude…! I’m saying with my own experience. #nooffence but the stereotypical Indian accent is mainly from the southern part, anyone can tell.
Hi
This is so funny but in Spanish we also say primos hermanos for cousins in the first degree; though we just normally say primos. In some Asian countries they also call brothers to male cousins.
I always wanted to comment on your great pronunciation in Spanish, Lucy.
About diabetes, same thing. We can say we have high sugar or don’t eat that or your sugar will go up. Te va a subir el azúcar. Mi abuela tiene azúcar/diabetes.
There was another similarity but I don’t remember it 🤣
I love your videos, thank you
No ones mentioning the fact that he included cousin brother but didn’t include aunty for all older female people regardless of relationship and uncle for all older male people regardless of relationship.
Marriage - wedding
No one say bus halt
Female boss/teacher - madam
Fired potato - French fries
Fired potato omgf god 😂😂😂😂 ITS FRIED 😂😂😘 WHAT DA FAK
Nice to learn and interesting too
Okay canedian
Thanks for the info
We sometimes actually say bus halt.
We also call ma'am/miss
6:50 In India we never use alliances.
We use Marriage. Wedding is refer for ceremony
In India
Bus stop - is where you wait for a bus (in your local area)
Bus stand/station - is much bigger and mostly you have one main bus stand for a city/town where all buses arrive and depart
Lucy's dance at the end is everything 😂 😂
Interesting, in Somalia 🇸🇴 we also refer diabetes as “sugar” same as India 🇮🇳. We say (Sokor or Sonkor)
And in hindi "sugar" is called "shakkar" which is very similar to your language

My school in Uttar Pradesh stands out, we refer female teachers to as "Miss" whether or not she is married (It is sort of tradition)... But all students in my locality who study in other schools say "Ma'am".
Yea in bihar also "miss" use for teacher ❤️
UP is something 😉
We do this in pakistan too

The word 'alliance' is usually used when the proposal is brought by a third party, i.e. for an 'arranged' marriage. So it's not used as a synonym for marriage but more for the word 'proposal'
@James Potter you do realize the whole point of the video is to discuss the difference between Indian English and British one
@Lord Voldemort Stfu stfu is of no use right here tbh
It's also used very formally and indirect way of saying its a marriage especially in wedding cards like " alliance of so and so families " . Basically the union of two families (through marriage )
Just going by the chosen image, I would have referred to that as a wedding (the ritual). Whereas a marriage is the institution that one enters into through a wedding. A side note: I came upon your video with the search terms "Indian British accent."
Big difference: We don't sound like this guy was trying too. We have our own accent.
@@beulaj59 I know I'm not complaining I was spotting the difference between accents. By our own I meant our Indian accent

Also we called line for electricity 😊
Loved it!
As Indians, we call our female teachers by saying "ma'am" or "Ms. (name)".
I was taught the Indian system for numbers with unit systems of "lakhs", "crores" etc., so it took a few months for me to adjust when I moved to a different school (which followed the British curriculum).
In my school/area we just address our teachers as “teacher”

When portuguese introduced aubergine to India, Indians adopted the Portuguese name berinjole and it elided to brinjal over the course of time.
Woww..😮😮 Thanks 4 sharing
I am brazilian and I have never heard about ( Berinjole), I believe it is spoken in Portugual. Here, we call it of Berinjela. It is very interesting. Egg plant, brinjol and aubergine , as we here learn American english, I did know none of these words..Brinjol and aubergine.

I think the word Brinjal ( Indian word for aubergine/ egg plant) came from the Portuguese word Beringela.
*You should try to make video about differences Indonesian English & American English too*
I've learned "eggplant", but would love to call it brinjal, it looks so much like my native language (in portuguese, berinjela)
Thats because its related its also similar in Spanish berenjena Portugese called it berinjela they went to Arabs and arabs call it al-bāḏinjān arabs went to Persia and it became bâdenjân then Persians invaded india and word became Brinjal in turn Indian's met southeast Asians so now southeast asia calls it brinjal too its origin is Portuguese just travelled alot.
that explains it. Portugese invaded Sri Lanka too, we call it brinjal too. I wondered where the word came from
Hindi word in Baingan
