Wishing you all a very happy Republic day! Let's not take for granted for a single day what a beautiful nation we have with its infinite diversity and uniqueness. Love your culture, love the cultures of your brothers and sisters from other states, and keep the spirit of a free nation alive within yourselves. Congratulations everyone for being born to this divine land in this divine time.
I really love how this channel is turning into an Indian Linguistics channel. Bringing to people the beauty of the subcontinent in such beautiful ways. The in-depth analysis combining the unique choice of topics and Ashris's unique way of story telling makes this channel very special and close to my heart.
The last one broke my heart 😔. Not just because a possibly 70,000 year old language went extinct but also because the way she said 'This place is not good for living.' One can only imagine what kind of circumstances led to such presumably folktale lyric being passed onto to her.
@@handIe. Many of these andamanese languages and also languages who didn't have script have been passed down orally for thousands of years so it is hard to determine how old they are . Some of they may even be older than sanskrit,tamil, sumerian and hieroglyphics.
I'm so glad you included Tulu. Hope it gets the required recognition as one of the official languages of India. Im a mangalorean konkani speaker, but the konkani one was really difficult to guess
Konkani is flexible. Maharashtra and Goa Konkani versions took a lot of Marathi in. The song shown in this video sings of Ch. Shivaji Maharaj. So had Marathi influence. Mangalore Konkani is Kannada influenced.
I got 8 correct out of 15, most of them because of me identifying the costumes and dance forms which depict that area of India. Even majority of Indians don't know how huge India is in terms of diversity, culture and languages! This video is just great!
@@bharatnanwani730 , I am proud mother tongue Hindi speaker but please don't do this. I think, spread of Hindi for communicating on India level is ok but Govt should start a mother tongue book for each student. They can hier a teacher from same language group. Why should we loose our beautiful languages & culture associated with them.
The last 'Bo' langauge which got extinct really made me sad. A part of humanity which lasted for more than 70000 years just got wiped away. Hope someday it could be revived from any future technology.
Aka-Bo is quite documented and hopefully, future Great Andamanese who'll identify as Bo would learn the language from the records. Unfortunately, there are less than a hundred Great Andamanese today compared to their numbers (2,000-6,600) from last century.
@@rvat2003the 10 old tribal subgroups of Great Adamanese don’t exist anymore, most of younger ones are just Great Andamanese now. Language wise the last speaker of Cari language died in 2021, so the language family is extinct too. A few senior elders speak a mixed Jeru-based creole while the youth speaks Hindi creole now. So I guess its the end for the tribe.
It feels sad when a language gets extinct(in this case, Bo language), as with it, we might have also lost the link to the culture and traditions associated which must have existed for centuries. Great job as always Ashris :]
Here's something I recommend you watch. It is by Anvita Abbi Ma'am, the language researcher who painstakingly documented the great Andamanese language. She talks about what happens when a language dies: th-cam.com/video/iIGM4H09EyQ/w-d-xo.html
@𝙾𝙼 𝙰𝚁𝚈𝙰𝙽 not pointing at you, but the general bimaru land population. Hyper nationalism has led to forgotten regionalism. And people have the audacity to mock southerners as being chauvinists. This is the reason why anti Hindi movement is happening in the southern states. Unnecessary imposition. Ugh.
@mahmud.020 I am also Sylheti dada, Afni bala ni? I am happy that they included Sylhet, r u from Sylhet Division in Bangladesh or r u from Barak Valley division in Assam? Sylhet is between Bangladesh and Assam, it has it's own culture and festivals and it's own script known as the Sylheti Nagri Script which is closely related to the phonetics in Assamese.
The innocence of the Bo speaking lady and the fact that the language is now extinct just broke my heart. I hope we are able to preserve the languages that are still being spoken in our beautiful and culturally diverse country.
Being Garhwali, it made me very proud to be represented in a video about Indian languages whereas people dispute Garhwali even being a language altogether and rather call it a dialect of Hindi.
@@swanubal508 there is nothing as 'pure' in linguistics; there is just regional differences. People in lower Garhwal and lower kumaon speak Garhwali and Kumaoni with an obvious influence of Hindi because Hindi speakers(mainly khadi boli and kauravi speakers of western UP) are very adjacent to them and they have a historical trade relation. Same ways Garhwali Uttarakashi has similar words of Himachali/mahasuvi in their vocabulary. This happens with every language.
@@NikhilUttrakhandi yeah but the people mix hindi words in garhwali and that's what piss me off...specially those dehradun wale who just make music without any background and knowledge... I'm not talking about cultural mixing cuz I definitely know about it bruh..and I'm also not talking about dialects as well
Are literally kidding!!! The first one is TULU I can't believe!! The people dancing are our gods The first line says "The beauty and culture of Tulunadu's place"
The whole concept of this video is so amazing... As a Sylheti native speaker from Barak Valley (Assam), I felt so emotional to see my Mother Tongue being recognised.. Usually, a lot of ppl don't know that Sylheti has it's own alphabet system..We have the famous folk songs of Sylhet ( earlier Sri Hatta) eg "Suhag Chand Bo Dhonir Dhoni Nacho to Dekhi" And the dance "Dhamail" is actually traditional Sylheti Folk Dance..
as usual bengalis are very cunning people, they never let any other language flourish in WB and BD, once upon a time they were telling Odia ekta bhasa noi, now sadly for them Odia is a classical language, and they are still thinking how to stop bangladeshi infiltration into their state.
Big respect for you bro.For learning and researching all languages of India. Tulu is also spoken in Kasargod district of Kerala.Tulu script is very similar to Malayalam.. Thank you bro
I just wanted to express my appreciation for the work that Ashris is doing with India in Pixels. The way the channel promotes Indian languages and culture is truly inspiring. The content is informative, well-researched and presented in an engaging manner. It's amazing to see the rich and diverse culture of India being shared with the world in such a beautiful way. Keep up the amazing work, Ashris! #IndiaInPixels #PromoteIndianLanguageAndCulture"
@1:25, that's my language, Sylheti. SOAS University in London is working on a project to try and revive the Sylheti Nagri script. It's a different language to Bangla, always has been.
The last two were absolutely unexpected! Amazing compilation. Nagamese, Axomiya, Irula stole my heart. Galo seemed interesting. Burushaski felt like a different vibe. Most interesting thing is, except a few I knew any of them until now!
Thanks for introducing me to these many languages. Being a South Indian I thought it will be between definitely among South Indian languages but much more pleased to see the level here. Tbh I heard some of the those names for the first time. More power to you in your efforts to keep those languages alive. All the very best.
I think the Bengalis will score the highest in this one😂 As a Bengali, I could easily guess Axomiya, Sylheti, Nagamese, Santhali, Maithili and even Galo to some extent(eventhough I know it's not related to any of the above). Also Gondi became easier to guess, knowing it's definitely not Santhali😂 Also thanks for including Burushaski even though most of it's speakers are in POK, with only few hundred native Burushaski speakers in India✊
1 point only!!!! Eye opener for me of our varied and rich culture....I have just subscribed to your channel ....BHAGWAN BLESS YOU....PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN....
10/16 not bad, right? It was not only entertaining, but also super insightful, came to know about some languages for the first time, I knew about Bo but heard it for the first time. Being a person belonging to Tripura, I have guessed 4 of our regional languages right. LASTLY, Thanks a million for adding the Sylheti song, it is my mother tongue. It is spoken primarily by people from North Tripura. I am from Dhalai, where they don't speak Sylheti much. In fact, people make fun of this beautiful dialect sometimes. It is quite disheartening that my mum doesn't let me speak Sylheti outside, as people might make fun of my dialect. But today I have felt super proud for being a Sylheti speaker. As my father's ancestors were from Dhaka, I usually speak their Bengali accent. But in my heart, I have the greatest place for my mum's dialect.
Sylheti, Maithili, Nagamese, Axomiya and Santhali. As a Bengali it is not so difficult to identify these language as these all are Bengal's bordar language. Love this content 😍
@@Aritra_Karmakar_SW I know you mean no harm, but it can feel a bit derogatory towards Axomiya/Odia speakers, so please change your wordings. Yes, these 3 were super close until the very end of evolution, but that doesn’t make any one dialect of another. Love from a linguaphile Bengali.
@@Mod_on_exp maithili in its current form is very much distinguishable.. As a native maithili speaker it was very hard for me to differentiate btw. Assamese and bangla
Malayalam is the most difficult language in India in the matter of Speaking, Writing, Listening, reading and it's very hard to pronounce each word properly owing to the fact that Malayalam language is influenced by Sanskrit,Tamil, Arabic as well as Hindi and even Portuguese and English.
feels so good to see your mother language getting recognition and being shared. "Adi Adi Sarhao"; that's how you say Thankyou very much in Santhali and also including ISL was such a great move
The Bo story was absolutely heart breaking! Really sad how languages just die that way... I love how you made it really hard to guess each one, just made it super fun! Thanks for this work cause I don't think anyone's really caring about culture at at its grass-roots level these days..please kept making new content!
Surprisingly I knew this many..got 12. It just felt like all these languages are naturally coming to my heart, my brain subconsciously thought of the languages. Thanks man for bringing all these languages and amazing voices/songs to limelight!! BTW even my mom started singing that 3rd song Hyund ka Dina, originally sung by Mina Rana then by Kalpana Chauhan and this one by Charu Semwal
I belongs to Bhumij Community and our language is Bhumij. I loved to listen Bhumij, Santhali, Ho, Mundari songs. ❤️ Nice to hear a Santhali song in this video. I also saw Bhumij language as an option, which is on the verge of extinction. Bhumij is a language of the Austroasiatic language family, related to Mundari, Ho and Santhali. Many similarities can also be seen in these four languages. I would like to thank ❤️ #India_in_Pixels_by_Ashris from the bottom of my heart for mentioning Bhumij language in the option, it would have been better if there was a Bhumij song also. I am glad to see that people like you in the country know about the language called Bhumij. ❤️ I humbly request you to make videos on our sweet Bhumij, Santhali, Ho and Mundari languages. ❤️
The last one got me goosebumps, the Bo language being one of the first languages in human history, like imagining that the people our ancestors who were coming from Africa during the great migration thousands of years ago speaking this language and getting on with their daily life. hearing the words is like doing time travel.
@@uzochiokeke4328 sylheti was a part of India before. A large number of sylheti speaking people is there in the barak valley side (Silchar and Cachar).
1:31 Garhwali language !! I am from Nepal and the language sounded like something my mind thinks it can understand when listened surfacely but can't process most of it while listening carefully.
@@junekafaltiya4514 , there are some differences. And way of speaking makes it different too. Like in the end of Kumaoni words , it sounds similar to Nepalese. While in garhwali it is not about sound.
Great work ashrish. This inspires to know more about indian languages. Suggestion: Make videos on how to recognize indian languages, Especially how to differentiate between south indian and north eastern laguages. Similarities and basic differences in writing and pronunciation, etc.
Glad that this channel added Galo content in the video, as Arunachalee we doesn't get that much attention from the mainland peoples. Happy to see this.. ❣️
As you see from the comments, people absolutely are in love with Arunachal and the Galo song here by Marjum. So far we didn't have ways to know about each other, now with TH-cam, we are starting to discover the beauty that for so long was only read, never experienced. I am sure a lot of the mainland people once they know of the rich cultures of NE will fall in love with them
I would love it if you do a video on the languages of Assam. There are absolute gems for you to discover. Assamese, for instance, has one of the largest corpus of literature among Indian languages, including, but not limited to the Buranjis (historical chronicles of the Ahoms). The Shan tribes of upper Assam have preserved their language to such an extent that they could communicate with a Thai princess without any translators. The Sylheti tongue features tones, a relatively uncommon feature for Indo-Aryan languages. The American missionaries who saved the Assamese language, the Tibeto-Burman influences on Assamese and Sylheti, the Bhasha Andolon of the Barak Valley, the evolution of creole languages like Haflong Hindi, NEFAmese, Nagamese and Assam Sadri spoken by the Tea Tribes are all stories waiting to be discovered. I am sure you will be able to justice to them.
Proud of Indian diversity 🧡. Many thanks to the channel. An excellent idea and effort. Due to my father's job, I have lived in all corners of India and still got more than half the questions wrong, but I am happy that India has got immense cultural depth which is close to impossible to know in one life.
Maithili is not only spoken in Darbhanga and Madhubani District of Bihar. I am from saharsa District and speaking Maithili. Maithili is spoken in Purnea, Saharsa,Begusarai, sitamarhi, Muzaffarpur, supaul and Entire North Bihar. 20 district of Bihar is Maithili spoken area
I scored 5, beautiful video. Different Language should unite us, every Indian should be proud of our all languages. No language is great or lesser to one another. We are all beautiful. ❤️
Loved to see Gojri as an option at the end. It's my native languages and is spoken by Gujjars of Jammu and Kashmir. Bakerwali, Pahari, Punjabi and Dogri shares similarities with it. I have never tried to learn any of these languages formally but I still can understand two natives speaking them coz I'm a Gujjar. Hope you'll add Gojri songs in your future videos, the most popular of them are called "baits".
The singer in the Axomiya song has the most beautiful voice!! So sweet and smooth. Btw all the songs were so good, I did not about At least 4 of these languages. So interesting and diverse, our country is.
12 out of 15 Correct 1 turned out correct out of 2 choices Had in my mind. 1. Tulu ✅ (I could guess right because I stay in Mumbai and interacted with lot of Shetty poeple) 2. Sylheti ✅ (Got right after stressing lot on options and also I knew Bangla and it was sounding different on song) 3. Garhwali ✅ (Got right because I can somehow differentiate all North Indian Languages) 4. Maithili ✅ (Got right because my 2 friends were from Bihar who spoke Maithili and it somehow sounded similar in the song which my friends spoke) 5. Konkani ✅ (Got right obviously because it's my mother tongue) 6. Nagamese ✅ (I got right because of stressing and analyzing option and also in Goa few Northeast Indians came who were from Nagaland and also played football with them) 7. Axomiya ✅ (Because I recently started listening to Assamese song as well as my friends wife speak Axomiya and also sing Assamese songs) 8. Gondi ✅ (Got correct because I heard Gondwana word in the song so should be Gondi I assumed and turned out to be right) 9. Haryanvi ✅ (Though it was difficult to guess at first glance from sasura and sagre baal words I was able to guess) 10. Santhali ✅ (This time I got right by just making 2nd attempt to mark as Santhali) 11. Baduga ❎ (Got wrong and Irula ✅ was the right one. I didn't know the name of language but I knew that they spoke mixture of Kannada and Tamil. I guessed Baduga because scenery was of nilgiri hills so it could be like that.) 12. Tangsa❎ or Galo✅ (so Galo came right and A and C options seems to be some Korean thing so I eliminated those options in my mind) 13. Burushaski ✅ (Got right after stressing on options) 14. ISL ✅ (Got right because It was sign language and should be Indian) 15. Nicobarese ❎ (Got wrong and it was Bo)
@@velmuruka3186 Ji Thanks for clearing my misunderstanding. It's very interesting to know new languages that we have in our country and I'm very sorry if I had offended you and your language by any means.
I got 12 right (except Irula, Bo and ISL). To be honest your supporting videos as well as multi-choice options give a lot of hint at the language else one can miss much more ---> In Gondi video, they clearly mention "Bastar", in Nagamese, they clearly mention "Naga" (else it sounds similar to Assamese), Tulu clearly had Yakshagana (hint to Karnataka), in another video, the singer was wearing a "Gilgit-Baltistan" type cap (valley Kashmiris in India don't use that, though they are neighbors), Garhwali lady clearly had a Garhwali-style cloth on head, in Konkani it was Shivaji and a language similar to Marathi though clearly not Marathi (Konkani is the language closest to Marathi). Thanks thanks thanks a lot for this terrific video, gave goosebumps when the Santhali dancer sang about "Bharat" (like most of the collage did).
First of all, I love you Ashris. I mostly got all the Eastern languages and Tulu, thanks to Kantara. Every time I watch this channel I feel, DAMN!! We don't need Hindi or English to connect. Our ancestors have done that already. We just need to follow their steps.
I can't believe I actually got 11 right. A lot of that has to do with your channel. Thank you for making such efforts to spread the awareness of the diverse languages spoken in India Please add the credits to the songs used, links if possible in the description, would love to hear them all
6:50 "D" (Vadari) was once spoken by our "tribe" (. Vadde Raju/Bhovi/Ottar. )across the Deccan, all the way from Maharashtra to Tamil nadu.Due to globalisation and assimilation , we have divided ourselves ethnically (Kannada,Telugu,Marathi,Tamil) and our Waddari is dying rapidly 😥😣😫😭 ............ While we are adopting other languages as "mother tongue". All other tribes take pride in their language but our people look down upon our own language 😭😭.
My score: 11/15... My wrong Answers: Irula, Burushaski, ISL and Bo Thank you so much for introducing such unique languages of my country. Now I'm listening the Burushaski song ( Bo Giyam)...very melodious 💕🎼 Love from Assam ❣️
I guessed Garhwali right. But I came here after watching the video you made about queer people. I really liked your content and I just gonna explore your channel. I have gone through your website and have seen that you have an interest in philosophy as well as engineering and I completely relate with that. Subscribing to your channel now. And yes your Linkedin Profile is impressive too.
Please make more. It is fun to notice patterns in musicality and sounds across language groups. The closer the languages are to the soil (the more similar they sound to me even across language families). Thank for including ISL as there is so little awareness about sign languages. So sorry to see the bit about Bo. Whole heartedly agree with Boa Sr.
Got just 10 but happy that I got all Dravidian languages correct. This is incredible video, goes on to show how less most of us know about our own languages. Thanks for including Tulu ❤️
I am glad you at least included Bagri in the options for Haryanvi. Proud Bagri speaker here.... Also, that was not a very authentic version of Haryanvi in that song. It felt like Hindi with few haryanvi words sprinkled in
I recognised only Tulu. But i knew about konkan language rest all langauges i heard first time.. but felt very bad for BO language. Now it's no more.. i hope this is an alarm all the people who neglect their mother tongue.. love your language from your soul guys and respect every other language in their land.
i got 9/15 by figuring out the costumes and the little that i understood of the lyrics (gondwana being repeaed in the gond song). This video and the collection of the songs featured introduced me to so many new songs in languages i knew nothing of! all of these songs are bangers and it's so nice to see folk culture being represented through art.
Tulu is also spoken in some areas of Kasaragod district in Kerala. Konkani (or at least a dialect) is also spoken in Dakshina Kannada district in Karnataka.
I'm not Indian, I am a Pahari (Pothwari) from Pakistan and these were my guesses: 1) Tulu - Definitely sounded different from Malayalam and Kannada, being born and raised in the UAE, I'm exposed to South Indian languages all the time, hence went for Tulu. 2) Sylheti - 100% part of the Bengali-Assamese continuum, but it's not Assamese nor does it sound like Standard Bangla, therefore Sylheti it is. 3) Garhwali - Easy, The outfit was from Uttarakhand. It sounded like a Pahari language with Nepali influence, hence could either be Kumaoni or Garhwali, but since Garhwali was the only option that was it. Loved hearing it because as I'm a Pahari from Pakistan I could definitely hear some similarities. 4) Maithili - Was a tossup between Awadhi, Bhojpuri and Maithili as I'm not good at differentiating between the 3, went with Awadhi but changed to Maithili based on intuition. 5) Konkani - Again, a tossup between Marathi and Konkani, no clues from the video either so went for the more obscure option. 6) Nagamese - Bruh c'monnn, Akhuni!!!!!!! Within 2 seconds I knew it was Nagamese, it's an Assamese creole language so it's recognizable and the word "Naga" was frequently used lol. 7th one is missing from the video as I was currently watching, however through comments, end credits and the playlist of songs used, I found out that 7th option was Assamese, and it would've been an easy guess either way. 8) Gondi - The word "Gondwa" was repeated alot, and besides it sounded like a Dravidian language so went with Gondi 9) Haryanvi - Got Punjabi, Rajasthani and Western UP vibes all at the same time even before the options popped up, instantly guessed Haryanvi. 10) Santhali - The only one I recognized aside from Ho, but since that was more obscure I went for Santhali. Sounded like a mix of Dravidian and Eastern Indo-Aryan languages at the same time. 11) Didn't even guess (Correct answer was Irula) - I was literally clueless because it was obviously a Dravidian language but didn't recognize any language from the options. 12) Hajong (Correct answer was Galo) - Only recognized Hajong from the options so just went with it. It was clear that it's a NE Indian language. 13) Burushaski - Indians will hate me for this one but I don't care, Burushaski is only spoken by a couple hundred people in Srinagar at max, no other Indian controlled or administered region speaks it nor is populated by the Burusho people, therefore to count and potray it as an "Indian language" is extremely unfair because for every other language in the video (eg. Sylheti) arguments can be made that there are sizeable minorities within India's borders, thereby including them would be good for representation, however in this specific case it's clearly a typical Indian move to assert the state's political claims, and to be fair I don't expect much else from an Indian creator given the strong levels of claim exertions I've seen from Indians who aren't even necessarily from or close to the region, I am not surprised at all. I do not agree with including a language which is 99.9% spoken outside of India's controlled borders, like compare a few hundred people to 100k-200k people, that's like only 0.1-0.2% of all Burushaski speakers at max. That's like if I included Tamil as a "Pakistani language" due to the few hundred Tamils who live in Karachi, This is just unreasonable and unfair. The guess was easy as it's Coke Studio Pakistan and since I'm from Northern Pakistan and we wear the same hat (Pakol) in our region as well, although in Gilgit-Baltistan & Chitral they have the feather varient like the one in the video. The language was definitely unique and sounded somewhat similar to other Dardic languages in the region like Shina and since I am very familiar with Kashmiri & Gojri, the choice was obvious. 14) ISL (Indian Sign Language) - It's a sign language, so by default went for ISL. 15) Jawara (Correct answer was Bo) - It's definitely an Andaman language. I only recognized Jarawa from the options, hence went with it. I did know that the Great Andaman languages went extinct but didn't know of any specific language within the family, honestly it's pretty heartbreaking to realize that language death is real. Total Score: 11/14 It was a really good quiz (barring the inclusion of Burushaski ofcourse) that I found relatively easy personally, however I must admit that it was definitely more challenging than the previous part that I did 3 years ago, in which I got 17/23 correct. Looking forward for more of these in the future!
He called it Indian because of its origin not because how many people speak it. and the Tamil logic that you given is not acceptable because once again it's about the origin of language not about how many people speak it
Too good boss if you could recognize 11- While you are correct from a Polilical boundaries perspective but we all know larger Indian subcontinent every thing so connected.
our language is linked to our identity our beliefs our culture...hindustani hindi destroying so many languages in north..politicians govt done that...Bollywood should also blamed for it..they impose Punjabi urdu through songs ,movies..no representation of himachal,uttarakhand ,Rajasthan,UP local languages..question should be asked if bollywood can make punjabi,urdu songs (in almost all movies ) why not himachali,garhwali,kumaoni,awadhi,maithali,rajasthani, bundelkhandi,bhojpuri ,north east language songs ? we in north should understand importance of our mother tongue like south...our languages r not dialects of hindi..calling our languages dialects is tactic use by govt,politicians to destroy our languages, culture and impose hindi urdu over us..bollywood is part of this urdu punjabi imposition...hindi is language of only delhi,west UP...we have our own langaueges..
Just imagine the plight of Marathis ! Marathi uses devnagari script from way before hindi "adopted" it, but still hindi speakers want Marathis to learn Hindi because of same script and not the other way around !!
@@MarathiMavla u r right...but u should not blame people ,blame politicians,bollywood,govts..we all victim of this hindi imposition unwillingly..we r helpless..we people don't have any power... Bollywood is in ur state Maharasthra. Just check songs of Bollywood..all r in punjabi,urdu even not in pure hindi...if u see bollywood movies it looks Bollywood is situated in Punjab,delhi or Pakistan not in Maharasthra ? how many times u listen marathi songs in bollywood movie ? if Punjabi songs can be there why not marathi ?bollywood doing more harm to ur marathi language culture than so called north indian hindi speakers..
@@antriksX I don't know what's projected outside Maharashtra but the fact is that we don't relate to Bollywood as much as whole india thinks. In fact Dadasaheb Phalke was a Marathi man who made first Indian movie in Marathi ! Bollywood was established much later... But times are changing now latest Marathi movie "VED" is running housefull and beating latest Hindi movie "KUTTEY" in collections, KUTTEY is an utter flop !! Only way to stop this Hindi imposition is to preserve and protect your language and identity. Remember BO language got extinct due to loss of number of speaking population !!
@@MarathiMavla u talked about marathi movie..their is also Punjabi film industry...u not seeing problem here. . bollywood call itself hindi film industry but give songs in Punjabi and urdu..if bollywood can make regional language Punjabi songs why not marathi when it is based in Maharashtra ? Bollywood literally one Punjabi song in every movie and promoting Punjabi all over India.. amount of money spent in promotion of urdu Punjabi is insane..why u marathis don't ask bollywood to make marathi culture based movies ,songs over Punjabi ? U don't think people behind bollywood is reason behind it.. majority of bollywood controlled by Punjabi ,khan families that's why dominance of urdu Punjabi...
@@antriksX The main problem isn't about Marathis who don't ask Bollywood to make movies on marathi culture, the main problem was people of Hindi belt who watched Bollywood movies and supported the content ! Ask yourself haven't you supported Bollywood movies at some point in your life ??? I personally don't want Bollywood to make movies on marathi culture I rather want marathi people to make marathi content I will gladly support them !!! You people must create your own regional film industries and support them don't watch bollywood if it doesn't reflect your cultural values. Personally 2022 has been the best year for Marathi film industry and we got many HIT Marathi films that we guys showered love over !! I'm pretty confident of MARATHI LANGUAGE future ❤️
9/15. Even though I missed some languages but recognised every geographical location. There is a pattern in languages spoken in different parts of India which is easy to recognise if you are interested enough.
It's a great thing you guys are doing with this channel. I've never heard of some of the languages you have displayed here. And thanks to you, now I'm a little bit knowledgeable than before. But I do have one problem with the video. When you are displaying the answer with an important fact, please leave it on screen for sometime longer, so that it's easy to read and understand our culture better. It won't make your video boring or anything. It is nothing but boring. Thank you 😊🙏🏻
I could guess (not recognise) 6. It makes you feel humble as a Hindi speaker to realise the diversity of languages in our country. It makes me feel proud as well to see the high production quality of most of these songs, a sign, I belive, that these languages and cultures are thriving. I wish same would have been true for some other languages (like those in Andaman).
r u really hindi speaker ? is hindi ur mother tongue ? almost 80% hindi speakers have hindi as second language..hindi destroying our regional languages..
@@antriksX Yes Hindi is my mother tongue. And I only know English besides it. So, I consider myself an illiterate when it comes to spoken languages. Most of my friends who belong to non Hindi speaking states/cultures know more than 2 languages. And I am grateful that all of them understand Hindi/English so that we can communicate with each other. Its not Hindi's fault that other regional languages get side-lined. It may be Hindi-speakers' fault though. I hope you understand the difference. Given the vast cultural diversity of our nation, we do need a multi-language system (where one or two languages are primary languages) to make things work. Like right now you and me are communicating in English. But that shouldn't mean one language completely dominating others in all walks of life. The conflict between multiple languages is not a problem unique to just India. But we should atleast appreciate the fact that our leaders haven't been as brutal towards minority languages as some other nations have been when they have outrightly (as an overt state policy) banned certain languages in the past (Ex.-Turkey did this to Kurdish, Chinese are doing this to Uyghur langugaes now). I am not aware of any language/dialect being banned by any state/central Indian government. But yes we still do have a long way to go. In the end we should respect and learn about each other's culture. The more you know about other cultures, the more respectful you become towards other fellow human beings.
@@JaagUthaHaivaan well they not banned language..but actually hindi is language of Only Delhi ,west UP..for example in uttarakhand they made hindi our state language..same in rajasthan..hindi is state language used by govt..but our original language not recognised and used..when u allow hindi english only not other languages with time those language die..in school they teaching in hindi english not native language..u don't have to force..for example in south ,they r strict for their language..but in north,now hindi is state language of himachal, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan..large amount of population of these regions don't have hindi mother tongue but govt use hindi..buy this u making homogeneous society...we just want govt to make our native language state language and promote it.. Himachal should have himachali state language not hindi..same way uttarakhand should include our pahadi language..UP should include maithili,awadhi state language ... Rajasthan should make Rajasthani state language... promote state language... english can be used as link language.. personally I think english is easy than hindi..u can also communicate with south indians and whole world using it..
@@antriksX But governments would keep doing their own thing, trying to strike a balance between different interest groups, while also appeasing certain vote banks. What the lovely music videos here show (except, the last 2 videos), is that people are still proud of their native culture.
Brilliant content once again! Happy to have got 12/15, missed Maithili, Burushaski (had absolutely no knowledge of this language isolate), and Haryanvi. Watching out for the cultural references and looking out to catch certain words with sharp ears definitely helped! ❤
Wishing you all a very happy Republic day! Let's not take for granted for a single day what a beautiful nation we have with its infinite diversity and uniqueness. Love your culture, love the cultures of your brothers and sisters from other states, and keep the spirit of a free nation alive within yourselves. Congratulations everyone for being born to this divine land in this divine time.
God bless you... U r doing such a amazing work.... 🙏

Thanks for showing regional language beauty.. Culture...
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL
Am i the only one who can't see the 7th one. It skips to 8th Gondi from 6th Nagamese. What happened to the Axomiya song in between .
I really love how this channel is turning into an Indian Linguistics channel. Bringing to people the beauty of the subcontinent in such beautiful ways. The in-depth analysis combining the unique choice of topics and Ashris's unique way of story telling makes this channel very special and close to my heart.
Bengalis and their love for language.
ashris has to branch out with more innovative vide ideas if he wants to attract a larger audience.
Is turning? Bruh the turn happened months ago, and I'm all for it!
@@anshupandit4490 he's not bengali
Please cover philology in future videos, and etymosemanticology, they are the best part of linguistics (imo)

The last one broke my heart 😔. Not just because a possibly 70,000 year old language went extinct but also because the way she said 'This place is not good for living.' One can only imagine what kind of circumstances led to such presumably folktale lyric being passed onto to her.
indeed :(
70k year old language?
@@handIe. Many of these andamanese languages and also languages who didn't have script have been passed down orally for thousands of years so it is hard to determine how old they are . Some of they may even be older than sanskrit,tamil, sumerian and hieroglyphics.
bro 70k ... even homo sapians are hardly that old
@@manofculture9051 modern humans are at the very least one lakh years old
I'm so glad you included Tulu. Hope it gets the required recognition as one of the official languages of India. Im a mangalorean konkani speaker, but the konkani one was really difficult to guess
Me too❤
same
Kokani - resembles Marathi.
Konkani is flexible. Maharashtra and Goa Konkani versions took a lot of Marathi in. The song shown in this video sings of Ch. Shivaji Maharaj. So had Marathi influence. Mangalore Konkani is Kannada influenced.
yeah
kodial konkani and goan konkani are different
I got 8 correct out of 15, most of them because of me identifying the costumes and dance forms which depict that area of India.
Even majority of Indians don't know how huge India is in terms of diversity, culture and languages! This video is just great!
and sometimes identifying some words in the song also gave hint

Same!!
That gadwali song and his lyrics are killer 🥰😍😘
@@bharatnanwani730 , I am proud mother tongue Hindi speaker but please don't do this.
I think, spread of Hindi for communicating on India level is ok but Govt should start a mother tongue book for each student. They can hier a teacher from same language group.
Why should we loose our beautiful languages & culture associated with them.
The last 'Bo' langauge which got extinct really made me sad. A part of humanity which lasted for more than 70000 years just got wiped away. Hope someday it could be revived from any future technology.
Aka-Bo is quite documented and hopefully, future Great Andamanese who'll identify as Bo would learn the language from the records. Unfortunately, there are less than a hundred Great Andamanese today compared to their numbers (2,000-6,600) from last century.
@@rvat2003the 10 old tribal subgroups of Great Adamanese don’t exist anymore, most of younger ones are just Great Andamanese now. Language wise the last speaker of Cari language died in 2021, so the language family is extinct too. A few senior elders speak a mixed Jeru-based creole while the youth speaks Hindi creole now. So I guess its the end for the tribe.
90% of the world’s languages are going to end in the next 100 years… breaks my heart too 💔
It feels sad when a language gets extinct(in this case, Bo language), as with it, we might have also lost the link to the culture and traditions associated which must have existed for centuries.
Great job as always Ashris :]
Here's something I recommend you watch. It is by Anvita Abbi Ma'am, the language researcher who painstakingly documented the great Andamanese language. She talks about what happens when a language dies: th-cam.com/video/iIGM4H09EyQ/w-d-xo.html
@𝙾𝙼 𝙰𝚁𝚈𝙰𝙽 Bro forget about Script.. protect the Maithili Language first.. please
You guys are responsible for it. Everybody have embraced Hindi. And forgotten their roots.
@𝙾𝙼 𝙰𝚁𝚈𝙰𝙽 not pointing at you, but the general bimaru land population. Hyper nationalism has led to forgotten regionalism. And people have the audacity to mock southerners as being chauvinists. This is the reason why anti Hindi movement is happening in the southern states. Unnecessary imposition. Ugh.
@@jayanthmanutd Agreed bhai..
Glad that you have put Sylheti in the language... it's an independent language and has its own very different script and also different culture
@mahmud.020 I am also Sylheti dada, Afni bala ni? I am happy that they included Sylhet, r u from Sylhet Division in Bangladesh or r u from Barak Valley division in Assam? Sylhet is between Bangladesh and Assam, it has it's own culture and festivals and it's own script known as the Sylheti Nagri Script which is closely related to the phonetics in Assamese.
When u are from uttarakhand and you see a garhwali song .
Proud moment ❣️
The innocence of the Bo speaking lady and the fact that the language is now extinct just broke my heart. I hope we are able to preserve the languages that are still being spoken in our beautiful and culturally diverse country.
Being Garhwali, it made me very proud to be represented in a video about Indian languages whereas people dispute Garhwali even being a language altogether and rather call it a dialect of Hindi.
the garhwali was not pure and very much mixed with idk why.....because the we speak garhwali si different and devoid of hindi words i guess
@@swanubal508 there is nothing as 'pure' in linguistics; there is just regional differences. People in lower Garhwal and lower kumaon speak Garhwali and Kumaoni with an obvious influence of Hindi because Hindi speakers(mainly khadi boli and kauravi speakers of western UP) are very adjacent to them and they have a historical trade relation. Same ways Garhwali Uttarakashi has similar words of Himachali/mahasuvi in their vocabulary. This happens with every language.
@@NikhilUttrakhandi yeah but the people mix hindi words in garhwali and that's what piss me off...specially those dehradun wale who just make music without any background and knowledge...

Can you please tell me the Garhwali song name?

I am really amazed to see such beautiful languages from India. It is really sad to see languages like Bo became extinct.
The whole concept of this video is so amazing... As a Sylheti native speaker from Barak Valley (Assam), I felt so emotional to see my Mother Tongue being recognised.. Usually, a lot of ppl don't know that Sylheti has it's own alphabet system..We have the famous folk songs of Sylhet ( earlier Sri Hatta)
eg "Suhag Chand Bo Dhonir Dhoni Nacho to Dekhi" And the dance "Dhamail" is actually traditional Sylheti Folk Dance..
as usual bengalis are very cunning people, they never let any other language flourish in WB and BD, once upon a time they were telling Odia ekta bhasa noi, now sadly for them Odia is a classical language, and they are still thinking how to stop bangladeshi infiltration into their state.
thik ni? sylethi er independent alphabet aase ita kunu din sunchi na! r sylethi ta bangar thakia alada na upobhasa dialect !

Sylethi is a dialect of bengali isn't it, how it became a separate language
Big respect for you bro.For learning and researching all languages of India.

Thank you bro

I just wanted to express my appreciation for the work that Ashris is doing with India in Pixels. The way the channel promotes Indian languages and culture is truly inspiring. The content is informative, well-researched and presented in an engaging manner. It's amazing to see the rich and diverse culture of India being shared with the world in such a beautiful way. Keep up the amazing work, Ashris! #IndiaInPixels #PromoteIndianLanguageAndCulture"
@1:25, that's my language, Sylheti. SOAS University in London is working on a project to try and revive the Sylheti Nagri script. It's a different language to Bangla, always has been.
The last two were absolutely unexpected! Amazing compilation. Nagamese, Axomiya, Irula stole my heart. Galo seemed interesting. Burushaski felt like a different vibe. Most interesting thing is, except a few I knew any of them until now!
Thanks for introducing me to these many languages. Being a South Indian I thought it will be between definitely among South Indian languages but much more pleased to see the level here. Tbh I heard some of the those names for the first time. More power to you in your efforts to keep those languages alive. All the very best.
I guessed Tulu, Sylheti, Garhwali, Nagamese, Gondi, Haryanvi and Santhali. Loved this video. And boy was it tough!!

Thank you for including our language ❤️

I think the Bengalis will score the highest in this one😂 As a Bengali, I could easily guess Axomiya, Sylheti, Nagamese, Santhali, Maithili and even Galo to some extent(eventhough I know it's not related to any of the above). Also Gondi became easier to guess, knowing it's definitely not Santhali😂
Also thanks for including Burushaski even though most of it's speakers are in POK, with only few hundred native Burushaski speakers in India✊

10/16 not bad, right?
It was not only entertaining, but also super insightful, came to know about some languages for the first time, I knew about Bo but heard it for the first time. Being a person belonging to Tripura, I have guessed 4 of our regional languages right.
LASTLY, Thanks a million for adding the Sylheti song, it is my mother tongue. It is spoken primarily by people from North Tripura. I am from Dhalai, where they don't speak Sylheti much. In fact, people make fun of this beautiful dialect sometimes. It is quite disheartening that my mum doesn't let me speak Sylheti outside, as people might make fun of my dialect. But today I have felt super proud for being a Sylheti speaker. As my father's ancestors were from Dhaka, I usually speak their Bengali accent. But in my heart, I have the greatest place for my mum's dialect.

@@Aritra_Karmakar_SW I know you mean no harm, but it can feel a bit derogatory towards Axomiya/Odia speakers, so please change your wordings. Yes, these 3 were super close until the very end of evolution, but that doesn’t make any one dialect of another. Love from a linguaphile Bengali.

Malayalam is the most difficult language in India in the matter of Speaking, Writing, Listening, reading and it's very hard to pronounce each word properly owing to the fact that Malayalam language is influenced by Sanskrit,Tamil, Arabic as well as Hindi and even Portuguese and English.

Brother just am tamilai we could understand your language well and the idiotic secularism both are understand well lol
I don't agree as North indian I find malayali not much difficult if put time effort will learn in months
feels so good to see your mother language getting recognition and being shared. "Adi Adi Sarhao"; that's how you say Thankyou very much in Santhali and also including ISL was such a great move
I guessed 12 out of 15 and first one is my mother tongue (Tulu) and I like how this channel shows the linguistic diversity of India
The Bo story was absolutely heart breaking!
Really sad how languages just die that way...
I love how you made it really hard to guess each one, just made it super fun!
Thanks for this work cause I don't think anyone's really caring about culture at at its grass-roots level these days..please kept making new content!
Surprisingly I knew this many..got 12. It just felt like all these languages are naturally coming to my heart, my brain subconsciously thought of the languages. Thanks man for bringing all these languages and amazing voices/songs to limelight!!
BTW even my mom started singing that 3rd song Hyund ka Dina, originally sung by Mina Rana then by Kalpana Chauhan and this one by Charu Semwal
I belongs to Bhumij Community and our language is Bhumij. I loved to listen Bhumij, Santhali, Ho, Mundari songs. ❤️
Nice to hear a Santhali song in this video. I also saw Bhumij language as an option, which is on the verge of extinction. Bhumij is a language of the Austroasiatic language family, related to Mundari, Ho and Santhali. Many similarities can also be seen in these four languages.
I would like to thank ❤️ #India_in_Pixels_by_Ashris from the bottom of my heart for mentioning Bhumij language in the option, it would have been better if there was a Bhumij song also. I am glad to see that people like you in the country know about the language called Bhumij. ❤️
I humbly request you to make videos on our sweet Bhumij, Santhali, Ho and Mundari languages. ❤️

The last one got me goosebumps, the Bo language being one of the first languages in human history, like imagining that the people our ancestors who were coming from Africa during the great migration thousands of years ago speaking this language and getting on with their daily life. hearing the words is like doing time travel.
Sylheti at number 2 really surprised me as a native speaker. Loving the content here!

Does your community use it as their primary language or is it that you just know it but don't use it that often.

I am native Hindi speaker but understand gadwali song they are as similar as hindi if you listen carefully you get to know 😍
@@junekafaltiya4514 , there are some differences. And way of speaking makes it different too.
Like in the end of Kumaoni words , it sounds similar to Nepalese. While in garhwali it is not about sound.

First one is from Tulu, my mother tongue.
I wasn't expecting that but Thanks :)

This inspires to know more about indian languages.
Suggestion: Make videos on how to recognize indian languages,
Especially how to differentiate between south indian and north eastern laguages.
Similarities and basic differences in writing and pronunciation, etc.
Glad that this channel added Galo content in the video, as Arunachalee we doesn't get that much attention from the mainland peoples. Happy to see this.. ❣️
As you see from the comments, people absolutely are in love with Arunachal and the Galo song here by Marjum. So far we didn't have ways to know about each other, now with TH-cam, we are starting to discover the beauty that for so long was only read, never experienced. I am sure a lot of the mainland people once they know of the rich cultures of NE will fall in love with them

I would love it if you do a video on the languages of Assam. There are absolute gems for you to discover. Assamese, for instance, has one of the largest corpus of literature among Indian languages, including, but not limited to the Buranjis (historical chronicles of the Ahoms). The Shan tribes of upper Assam have preserved their language to such an extent that they could communicate with a Thai princess without any translators. The Sylheti tongue features tones, a relatively uncommon feature for Indo-Aryan languages. The American missionaries who saved the Assamese language, the Tibeto-Burman influences on Assamese and Sylheti, the Bhasha Andolon of the Barak Valley, the evolution of creole languages like Haflong Hindi, NEFAmese, Nagamese and Assam Sadri spoken by the Tea Tribes are all stories waiting to be discovered. I am sure you will be able to justice to them.
To be honest I am waiting for a representation of Bodo language myself.
exactly
Someone needs to document the similarities & differences between all these languages, lets say in the Assam valley for eg.
the way i screamed when i heard sylheti... lol

Proud of Indian diversity 🧡. Many thanks to the channel. An excellent idea and effort. Due to my father's job, I have lived in all corners of India and still got more than half the questions wrong, but I am happy that India has got immense cultural depth which is close to impossible to know in one life.
My heart broke for the Bo language. It survived for 70,000 years - imagine the tales, the stories and cultural things we lost.
The vastness and diversity of India and your talent is mesmerizing.
Maithili is not only spoken in Darbhanga and Madhubani District of Bihar. I am from saharsa District and speaking Maithili. Maithili is spoken in Purnea, Saharsa,Begusarai, sitamarhi, Muzaffarpur, supaul and Entire North Bihar. 20 district of Bihar is Maithili spoken area

Btw, there are only 14. Seventh one was missing.
My score is 8 out of 14.
I scored 5, beautiful video. Different Language should unite us, every Indian should be proud of our all languages. No language is great or lesser to one another. We are all beautiful. ❤️
In some of the songs,clue is given in the song itself by pronouncing the name of that region.
Loved to see Gojri as an option at the end. It's my native languages and is spoken by Gujjars of Jammu and Kashmir. Bakerwali, Pahari, Punjabi and Dogri shares similarities with it. I have never tried to learn any of these languages formally but I still can understand two natives speaking them coz I'm a Gujjar. Hope you'll add Gojri songs in your future videos, the most popular of them are called "baits".
The singer in the Axomiya song has the most beautiful voice!! So sweet and smooth.
Btw all the songs were so good, I did not about At least 4 of these languages. So interesting and diverse, our country is.
Bruh I got like 5-6 at max ,safe to say I'm surprised by the amount of different languages and cultures in a single place known as India.
12 out of 15 Correct
1 turned out correct out of 2 choices Had in my mind.
1. Tulu ✅ (I could guess right because I stay in Mumbai and interacted with lot of Shetty poeple)
2. Sylheti ✅ (Got right after stressing lot on options and also I knew Bangla and it was sounding different on song)
3. Garhwali ✅ (Got right because I can somehow differentiate all North Indian Languages)
4. Maithili ✅ (Got right because my 2 friends were from Bihar who spoke Maithili and it somehow sounded similar in the song which my friends spoke)
5. Konkani ✅ (Got right obviously because it's my mother tongue)
6. Nagamese ✅ (I got right because of stressing and analyzing option and also in Goa few Northeast Indians came who were from Nagaland and also played football with them)
7. Axomiya ✅ (Because I recently started listening to Assamese song as well as my friends wife speak Axomiya and also sing Assamese songs)
8. Gondi ✅ (Got correct because I heard Gondwana word in the song so should be Gondi I assumed and turned out to be right)
9. Haryanvi ✅ (Though it was difficult to guess at first glance from sasura and sagre baal words I was able to guess)
10. Santhali ✅ (This time I got right by just making 2nd attempt to mark as Santhali)
11. Baduga ❎ (Got wrong and Irula ✅ was the right one. I didn't know the name of language but I knew that they spoke mixture of Kannada and Tamil. I guessed Baduga because scenery was of nilgiri hills so it could be like that.)
12. Tangsa❎ or Galo✅ (so Galo came right and A and C options seems to be some Korean thing so I eliminated those options in my mind)
13. Burushaski ✅ (Got right after stressing on options)
14. ISL ✅ (Got right because It was sign language and should be Indian)
15. Nicobarese ❎ (Got wrong and it was Bo)
Irula is a separate language, closely related with Tamil, its not mix of Tamil and Kannada, do not blabber.

I got 12 right (except Irula, Bo and ISL). To be honest your supporting videos as well as multi-choice options give a lot of hint at the language else one can miss much more ---> In Gondi video, they clearly mention "Bastar", in Nagamese, they clearly mention "Naga" (else it sounds similar to Assamese), Tulu clearly had Yakshagana (hint to Karnataka), in another video, the singer was wearing a "Gilgit-Baltistan" type cap (valley Kashmiris in India don't use that, though they are neighbors), Garhwali lady clearly had a Garhwali-style cloth on head, in Konkani it was Shivaji and a language similar to Marathi though clearly not Marathi (Konkani is the language closest to Marathi). Thanks thanks thanks a lot for this terrific video, gave goosebumps when the Santhali dancer sang about "Bharat" (like most of the collage did).
3:45 akhuni word is more than enough to guess the answer. And last lyrical part "ami Naga maanu".
Nagaland people in short form Naga.
First of all, I love you Ashris. I mostly got all the Eastern languages and Tulu, thanks to Kantara. Every time I watch this channel I feel, DAMN!! We don't need Hindi or English to connect. Our ancestors have done that already. We just need to follow their steps.
Then how will u communicate??
I can't believe I actually got 11 right. A lot of that has to do with your channel. Thank you for making such efforts to spread the awareness of the diverse languages spoken in India
Please add the credits to the songs used, links if possible in the description, would love to hear them all
I do have a playlist in the end of the description with links to all the songs!
6:50 "D" (Vadari) was once spoken by our "tribe" (. Vadde Raju/Bhovi/Ottar. )across the Deccan, all the way from Maharashtra to Tamil nadu.Due to globalisation and assimilation , we have divided ourselves ethnically (Kannada,Telugu,Marathi,Tamil) and our Waddari is dying rapidly 😥😣😫😭 ............ While we are adopting other languages as "mother tongue".
All other tribes take pride in their language but our people look down upon our own language 😭😭.

I guessed Garhwali right. But I came here after watching the video you made about queer people. I really liked your content and I just gonna explore your channel. I have gone through your website and have seen that you have an interest in philosophy as well as engineering and I completely relate with that. Subscribing to your channel now. And yes your Linkedin Profile is impressive too.
the last one broke my heart. i hope that language to return back.
Please make more. It is fun to notice patterns in musicality and sounds across language groups. The closer the languages are to the soil (the more similar they sound to me even across language families).
Thank for including ISL as there is so little awareness about sign languages. So sorry to see the bit about Bo. Whole heartedly agree with Boa Sr.
Got just 10 but happy that I got all Dravidian languages correct. This is incredible video, goes on to show how less most of us know about our own languages. Thanks for including Tulu ❤️
As an ardent Sannidhya Bhuyan fan, I literally smiled when you played "Monore Majote". Instant Like!
I am glad you at least included Bagri in the options for Haryanvi. Proud Bagri speaker here....
Also, that was not a very authentic version of Haryanvi in that song. It felt like Hindi with few haryanvi words sprinkled in
Wow so beautiful video i seen today about our India diversity!!
Actually I know some languages in this video 💯😊
Love u from Telugu ✌️🚩🚩🔥
Tnx for adding Sylheti language in your video. Love from Habiganj, Sylhet❤️🖤
I recognised only Tulu. But i knew about konkan language rest all langauges i heard first time.. but felt very bad for BO language. Now it's no more.. i hope this is an alarm all the people who neglect their mother tongue.. love your language from your soul guys and respect every other language in their land.
i got 9/15 by figuring out the costumes and the little that i understood of the lyrics (gondwana being repeaed in the gond song). This video and the collection of the songs featured introduced me to so many new songs in languages i knew nothing of! all of these songs are bangers and it's so nice to see folk culture being represented through art.

14. Indian Sign Language
3 out of 15
I got 11/15
I was sure about 8 languages and 3 were guesses on the basics of words .
I personally like these types of videos from IIP☺️.
Tulu is also spoken in some areas of Kasaragod district in Kerala. Konkani (or at least a dialect) is also spoken in Dakshina Kannada district in Karnataka.
Yes

Loved the way... Thanks Ashris 💫 It's our duty to keep our mother tongue Alive... I speak Ganjami Odia/Southern Odia , dialect of Odia language 🙏
i only got 2 correct! Wow i haven't even heard of these languages so its nice to learn about them .. thanks india in pixels
I'm not Indian, I am a Pahari (Pothwari) from Pakistan and these were my guesses:
1) Tulu - Definitely sounded different from Malayalam and Kannada, being born and raised in the UAE, I'm exposed to South Indian languages all the time, hence went for Tulu.
2) Sylheti - 100% part of the Bengali-Assamese continuum, but it's not Assamese nor does it sound like Standard Bangla, therefore Sylheti it is.
3) Garhwali - Easy, The outfit was from Uttarakhand. It sounded like a Pahari language with Nepali influence, hence could either be Kumaoni or Garhwali, but since Garhwali was the only option that was it. Loved hearing it because as I'm a Pahari from Pakistan I could definitely hear some similarities.
4) Maithili - Was a tossup between Awadhi, Bhojpuri and Maithili as I'm not good at differentiating between the 3, went with Awadhi but changed to Maithili based on intuition.
5) Konkani - Again, a tossup between Marathi and Konkani, no clues from the video either so went for the more obscure option.
6) Nagamese - Bruh c'monnn, Akhuni!!!!!!! Within 2 seconds I knew it was Nagamese, it's an Assamese creole language so it's recognizable and the word "Naga" was frequently used lol.
7th one is missing from the video as I was currently watching, however through comments, end credits and the playlist of songs used, I found out that 7th option was Assamese, and it would've been an easy guess either way.
8) Gondi - The word "Gondwa" was repeated alot, and besides it sounded like a Dravidian language so went with Gondi
9) Haryanvi - Got Punjabi, Rajasthani and Western UP vibes all at the same time even before the options popped up, instantly guessed Haryanvi.
10) Santhali - The only one I recognized aside from Ho, but since that was more obscure I went for Santhali. Sounded like a mix of Dravidian and Eastern Indo-Aryan languages at the same time.
11) Didn't even guess (Correct answer was Irula) - I was literally clueless because it was obviously a Dravidian language but didn't recognize any language from the options.
12) Hajong (Correct answer was Galo) - Only recognized Hajong from the options so just went with it. It was clear that it's a NE Indian language.
13) Burushaski - Indians will hate me for this one but I don't care, Burushaski is only spoken by a couple hundred people in Srinagar at max, no other Indian controlled or administered region speaks it nor is populated by the Burusho people, therefore to count and potray it as an "Indian language" is extremely unfair because for every other language in the video (eg. Sylheti) arguments can be made that there are sizeable minorities within India's borders, thereby including them would be good for representation, however in this specific case it's clearly a typical Indian move to assert the state's political claims, and to be fair I don't expect much else from an Indian creator given the strong levels of claim exertions I've seen from Indians who aren't even necessarily from or close to the region, I am not surprised at all. I do not agree with including a language which is 99.9% spoken outside of India's controlled borders, like compare a few hundred people to 100k-200k people, that's like only 0.1-0.2% of all Burushaski speakers at max. That's like if I included Tamil as a "Pakistani language" due to the few hundred Tamils who live in Karachi, This is just unreasonable and unfair.
The guess was easy as it's Coke Studio Pakistan and since I'm from Northern Pakistan and we wear the same hat (Pakol) in our region as well, although in Gilgit-Baltistan & Chitral they have the feather varient like the one in the video. The language was definitely unique and sounded somewhat similar to other Dardic languages in the region like Shina and since I am very familiar with Kashmiri & Gojri, the choice was obvious.
14) ISL (Indian Sign Language) - It's a sign language, so by default went for ISL.
15) Jawara (Correct answer was Bo) - It's definitely an Andaman language. I only recognized Jarawa from the options, hence went with it. I did know that the Great Andaman languages went extinct but didn't know of any specific language within the family, honestly it's pretty heartbreaking to realize that language death is real.
Total Score: 11/14
It was a really good quiz (barring the inclusion of Burushaski ofcourse) that I found relatively easy personally, however I must admit that it was definitely more challenging than the previous part that I did 3 years ago, in which I got 17/23 correct. Looking forward for more of these in the future!
SYLHETI is language not part of boangal
🤔 thanks for typing this much very impressive
He called it Indian because of its origin not because how many people speak it. and the Tamil logic that you given is not acceptable because once again it's about the origin of language not about how many people speak it

Too good boss if you could recognize 11- While you are correct from a Polilical boundaries perspective but we all know larger Indian subcontinent every thing so connected.
our language is linked to our identity our beliefs our culture...hindustani hindi destroying so many languages in north..politicians govt done that...Bollywood should also blamed for it..they impose Punjabi urdu through songs ,movies..no representation of himachal,uttarakhand ,Rajasthan,UP local languages..question should be asked if bollywood can make punjabi,urdu songs (in almost all movies ) why not himachali,garhwali,kumaoni,awadhi,maithali,rajasthani, bundelkhandi,bhojpuri ,north east language songs ? we in north should understand importance of our mother tongue like south...our languages r not dialects of hindi..calling our languages dialects is tactic use by govt,politicians to destroy our languages, culture and impose hindi urdu over us..bollywood is part of this urdu punjabi imposition...hindi is language of only delhi,west UP...we have our own langaueges..
Just imagine the plight of Marathis ! Marathi uses devnagari script from way before hindi "adopted" it, but still hindi speakers want Marathis to learn Hindi because of same script and not the other way around !!
@@MarathiMavla u r right...but u should not blame people ,blame politicians,bollywood,govts..we all victim of this hindi imposition unwillingly..we r helpless..we people don't have any power... Bollywood is in ur state Maharasthra. Just check songs of Bollywood..all r in punjabi,urdu even not in pure hindi...if u see bollywood movies it looks Bollywood is situated in Punjab,delhi or Pakistan not in Maharasthra ? how many times u listen marathi songs in bollywood movie ? if Punjabi songs can be there why not marathi ?bollywood doing more harm to ur marathi language culture than so called north indian hindi speakers..
@@antriksX I don't know what's projected outside Maharashtra but the fact is that we don't relate to Bollywood as much as whole india thinks. In fact Dadasaheb Phalke was a Marathi man who made first Indian movie in Marathi ! Bollywood was established much later... But times are changing now latest Marathi movie "VED" is running housefull and beating latest Hindi movie "KUTTEY" in collections, KUTTEY is an utter flop !! Only way to stop this Hindi imposition is to preserve and protect your language and identity. Remember BO language got extinct due to loss of number of speaking population !!
@@MarathiMavla u talked about marathi movie..their is also Punjabi film industry...u not seeing problem here. . bollywood call itself hindi film industry but give songs in Punjabi and urdu..if bollywood can make regional language Punjabi songs why not marathi when it is based in Maharashtra ? Bollywood literally one Punjabi song in every movie and promoting Punjabi all over India.. amount of money spent in promotion of urdu Punjabi is insane..why u marathis don't ask bollywood to make marathi culture based movies ,songs over Punjabi ?
U don't think people behind bollywood is reason behind it.. majority of bollywood controlled by Punjabi ,khan families that's why dominance of urdu Punjabi...
@@antriksX The main problem isn't about Marathis who don't ask Bollywood to make movies on marathi culture, the main problem was people of Hindi belt who watched Bollywood movies and supported the content ! Ask yourself haven't you supported Bollywood movies at some point in your life ??? I personally don't want Bollywood to make movies on marathi culture I rather want marathi people to make marathi content I will gladly support them !!! You people must create your own regional film industries and support them don't watch bollywood if it doesn't reflect your cultural values. Personally 2022 has been the best year for Marathi film industry and we got many HIT Marathi films that we guys showered love over !! I'm pretty confident of MARATHI LANGUAGE future ❤️
First Time You have added My Uttrakhandi song 😢Happy to see this Because Every channel forget My state Uttrakhand ,Thanks IIP thx 🥰🥰
9/15. Even though I missed some languages but recognised every geographical location. There is a pattern in languages spoken in different parts of India which is easy to recognise if you are interested enough.
Every single video on this channel makes me proud of my country and my people. What an uplifting video.
It's a great thing you guys are doing with this channel. I've never heard of some of the languages you have displayed here. And thanks to you, now I'm a little bit knowledgeable than before. But I do have one problem with the video. When you are displaying the answer with an important fact, please leave it on screen for sometime longer, so that it's easy to read and understand our culture better. It won't make your video boring or anything. It is nothing but boring. Thank you 😊🙏🏻
I could guess (not recognise) 6. It makes you feel humble as a Hindi speaker to realise the diversity of languages in our country. It makes me feel proud as well to see the high production quality of most of these songs, a sign, I belive, that these languages and cultures are thriving. I wish same would have been true for some other languages (like those in Andaman).
r u really hindi speaker ? is hindi ur mother tongue ? almost 80% hindi speakers have hindi as second language..hindi destroying our regional languages..
@@antriksX Yes Hindi is my mother tongue. And I only know English besides it. So, I consider myself an illiterate when it comes to spoken languages. Most of my friends who belong to non Hindi speaking states/cultures know more than 2 languages. And I am grateful that all of them understand Hindi/English so that we can communicate with each other. Its not Hindi's fault that other regional languages get side-lined. It may be Hindi-speakers' fault though. I hope you understand the difference.
Given the vast cultural diversity of our nation, we do need a multi-language system (where one or two languages are primary languages) to make things work. Like right now you and me are communicating in English. But that shouldn't mean one language completely dominating others in all walks of life.
The conflict between multiple languages is not a problem unique to just India. But we should atleast appreciate the fact that our leaders haven't been as brutal towards minority languages as some other nations have been when they have outrightly (as an overt state policy) banned certain languages in the past (Ex.-Turkey did this to Kurdish, Chinese are doing this to Uyghur langugaes now). I am not aware of any language/dialect being banned by any state/central Indian government. But yes we still do have a long way to go. In the end we should respect and learn about each other's culture. The more you know about other cultures, the more respectful you become towards other fellow human beings.
@@JaagUthaHaivaan well they not banned language..but actually hindi is language of Only Delhi ,west UP..for example in uttarakhand they made hindi our state language..same in rajasthan..hindi is state language used by govt..but our original language not recognised and used..when u allow hindi english only not other languages with time those language die..in school they teaching in hindi english not native language..u don't have to force..for example in south ,they r strict for their language..but in north,now hindi is state language of himachal, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan..large amount of population of these regions don't have hindi mother tongue but govt use hindi..buy this u making homogeneous society...we just want govt to make our native language state language and promote it.. Himachal should have himachali state language not hindi..same way uttarakhand should include our pahadi language..UP should include maithili,awadhi state language ... Rajasthan should make Rajasthani state language... promote state language... english can be used as link language.. personally I think english is easy than hindi..u can also communicate with south indians and whole world using it..
@@antriksX I belong to MP. So, it'd be dishonest of me to flatly say I understand you brother. But I get what you are saying and I agree with you.
@@antriksX But governments would keep doing their own thing, trying to strike a balance between different interest groups, while also appeasing certain vote banks. What the lovely music videos here show (except, the last 2 videos), is that people are still proud of their native culture.
Brilliant content once again! Happy to have got 12/15, missed Maithili, Burushaski (had absolutely no knowledge of this language isolate), and Haryanvi. Watching out for the cultural references and looking out to catch certain words with sharp ears definitely helped! ❤
Maithili is the language of vidyapati... And maithili has alot of contributions in the later bengali bhakti movement....
people : guessing the song by lyrics and music
me : identifying the culture,dress and topography to make a guess
Santhali my love.
Thanks with great love for putting here.
I am going to give speech about languages in when school opens after summer vacations , i would do my best to spread it as far as I can
