Very similar dialect to what I speak with my family. I’m Fiji-Indian. Much respect to my Indo-Surinamese brothers and sisters for preserving the beautiful Bharat traditions.
Manish Jaiswal I am a fourth generation Indo Caribbean from the island of Trinidad 🇹🇹 in the Caribbean. My ancestors were taken from Bihar & Uttar Pradesh in the 1800’s by the British to work as indentured labourers on the sugar cane plantations. The British also took a lot of Indians from the same regions to neighbouring Guyana 🇬🇾 which isn’t far from Trinidad. We now make up the majority of both these countries but unfortunately only a very few people speak Bhojpuri which we refer to as Caribbean Hindustani. We do practice the religions, celebrate all the festivals & keep the names & surnames alive. Suriname which is also nearby has the same history as Trinidad & Guyana, the only difference is that they were taken by the Dutch & the Dutch allowed them to speak the language which they have retained to this day. The British forced the Indians to speak only English in Trinidad & Guyana but some secretly spoke Bhojpuri/Caribbean Hindustani in Trinidad & Guyana. Caribbean Hindustani or Sarnami Hindustani as they call it in Suriname is alive & preserved. 🇮🇳🇹🇹🇬🇾🇸🇷

In India people divided in Hindu Muslims,some became traitors,some lynchers.GyeneseCountry and people are great living amicably with sharing powers.But in India no representative and sharing in powers of Muslims.
Bhojpuri is spoken in all the continents. In India and Nepal, in Oceania (Fiji), in Africa (Mauritius), in South America (Surinam) and in Europe (England and Holland). So Bhojpuri is a global language.
@@alfonsmelenhorst9672 Yeah I agree Sir but we don't talk in bhojpuri in Public more, as we talk in other Laguage Example : English ,French Spanish ......but we talk in bhojpuri in our houses or family mostly . I Feel Proud that I belong to the Bhojpuri community 😊....!
@@Pyhappiness In Surinam the same. Bhojpuri (Sarnami Bhojpuri) is the language used in family and in community. The language in public is Dutch. Most people understand standard Hindi, but not many speak it fluently.
Hi everyone I'm born in fiji but my ancestors came from india so yeah tha hindi we speak.in Fiji.is very very similar to tha hindi.you people speak ...but living in new Zealand really connects me to.you people Salam to you all peace love
@Capt Abhimanyu Bhat No need, Girl could listen Shri Ram Janki baithe hai mere seene mei (Awesome Bhojpuri Song) and Mera Bhola Hai Bhandari (You Guys will Love These Songs in Fiji)
Watching from Faizabad(Ayodhya). I've always heard about how many people were taken to Suriname, Fiji and several other countries but never knew that they're still speaking the same language. Unfortunately, they've preserved the language better than people here in India.
I'm American but from Fiji, our parents enforce us to speak awadh, phojpuri Hindi, especially the one we learnt in Fiji. Now I'm grown up and I speak the language fluently along with the main stream Hindi... Am so proud...
Since my parents were born in bihar, and having lived in eastern and central UP, I can easily understand their conversation. They are mostly speaking a dialect of Awadhi. Spoken mostly from Terai region to central Uttar Pradesh. This doesn't include the regions of eastern Uttar Pradesh adjoining Bihar eg. Gorakhpur, Ballia, Deoria etc where mostly Bhojpuri is spoken. As far as I can make out, these people are conversing in a dialect closely resembling to what is spoken in Siddharthnagar, Basti, Balrampur, Gonda etc. How many people agree with me?
A LOT of people who were taken for indentureship came from that exact region. Basti especially. A lot who ended up in Trinidad came from further east so the Language there is more Bhojpuri. This is the Suriname dialect which is more Awadhi exactly as you have stated. In Fiji it is the same as Suriname.
Indo-Caribbeans came from all social classes from Brahmin to Chamaar. Punjab is a relatively cooler region when compared to UP/Bihar and the Caribbean, so undoubtedly over the course of the many generations of indo-Caribbeans post indentureship, the skin colour of a number of people is darker than your average Punjabi. BUT at the same time, there are indo-Caribbeans who are quite fair and can be compared to those of middle eastern or Hispanic descent, and some who have a skin colour very similar to to most “Desi” or North Indians/Pakistanis such as mine. You’ll also notice a dramatically smaller percentage of indentured labourers were in fact taken from the Madras port from Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala to the Caribbean. Needless to say, there are also darker Punjabis and fair Tamils right here in Canada as well.
The Tamils in the Caribbean, Fiji, Mauritius, South Africa etc have a unique culture. During indentureship, minority groups within the Indian population became assimilated into the critical mass which was UP/Bihar. So someone from Punjab would speak Punjabi at home and Bhojpuri on the fields, a tamil person would speak tamil at home and Bhojpuri on the fields etc etc. So while the tamil religious beliefs, cuisine, music and other elements of their culture remained the same up until even today, their language, names and a few practices have become identical to the critical mass of Awadhi and Bhojpuri culture. Along with the fact that much of the Caribbean was multicultural however colonized by the British, English soon replaced the ancestral language of most immigrants and the culture further changed too. Yes the culture is extremely different from Indian culture today, but some bits and pieces still remain as untouched relics of the past.
True. BTW the temple I attend when I am in Trinidad is based off of ancient Tamil beliefs. The temple is named Sri Kali Amman Kovel Dedicated to goddess Kali as well as other deities such as Mariamman, Sangili Karuppan, Madurai Veeran etc etc.
This is the language tradition of the people that were taken from up and Bihar to Suriname and then to Netherlands. They still speak the same language. 🚩
This is so touching! I’m half Pakistani and half Surinamese and have been blessed to understand 3 of my languages Urdu, Punjabi, and Hindoestaans ( Sarnami) The way they use “mooi” in their sentences really take me back to the time when my grandparents were alive.

Hi. I'm Indian. My question is, do Guyanese people still speak any Indian languages? Especially older Indo-Guyanese people? And do they still retain cultural practices like Diwali, Holi and Eid celebration, Indian food etc
Hi brothers and sisters, i'm born in UK, parents from Fiji, and great grandparents from Faizabad, I understand 99% of this, amazing to see from TH-cam, social media that we can all relate and have connections to the Girmitiyas
Sounds very similar to the Mauritian Bhojpuri I spoke as a kid in Mauritius. It seems to sit in between Bhojpuri and Awadhi. Example: Tu ghare kab jaibe ? > Mauritian Bhojpuri - Tu ghare kab jaiboo > western Bihar Bhojpuri. Bhopuri used to be the spoken language while Hindi was the prestige dialect for radio, tv and books.

It's kind of sad, nowadays, only the older generations in Guyana and Trinidad can speak Caribbean Bhojpuri/Awahdi fluently. Children are still taught it when they are young (for religious purposes) but as we grow older, we slowly forget until we arent able to understand a single word anymore. This is what happens when a culture tries to fit in with the English standard of the modern world, young people lose interest in maintaining their proficiency in their heritage languages.

This is indian Uttar Pradesh bhojpuri language, very nice, bahut accha laga.
S.N. Sharma very nice to know. I am a fourth generation Indo Caribbean from the island of Trinidad 🇹🇹 in the Caribbean. My ancestors were taken from Bihar & Uttar Pradesh in the 1800’s by the British to work as indentured labourers on the sugar cane plantations. The British also took a lot of Indians from the same regions to neighbouring Guyana 🇬🇾 which isn’t far from Trinidad. We now make up the majority of both these countries but unfortunately only a very few people speak Bhojpuri which we refer to as Caribbean Hindustani. We do practice the religions, celebrate all the festivals & keep the names & surnames alive. Suriname which is also nearby has the same history as Trinidad & Guyana, the only difference is that they were taken by the Dutch & the Dutch allowed them to speak the language which they have retained to this day. The British forced the Indians to speak only English but some secretly spoke Bhojpuri in Trinidad & Guyana. Caribbean Hindustani or Sarnami Hindustani as they call it in Suriname is alive & preserved. 🇮🇳🇹🇹🇬🇾🇸🇷
UP aur Bihar ke log aasani se samajh sakat ba inlogan ke baat.. bada achha lagat ba inkar log ke baat sun ke❤️❤️
Speaking bhojpuri just like my parents did from eastern Utter Pradesh. Gorakhpur region
biggurs wow my ancestors were taken from that same place in 1872 to Trinidad in the Caribbean. Also our brothers & sisters in Guyana, Suriname, Fiji & Mauritius were taken by the British in the 1800’s from Bihar & U.P.

Prem Shandilya wow Bhojpuri is the language of my ancestors who were taken in the 1800’s to Trinidad 🇹🇹 in the Caribbean. The same goes for Guyana 🇬🇾 & Suriname 🇸🇷 in South America & Mauritius 🇲🇺 & Fiji 🇫🇯. The British took us from Bihar & U.P in the 1800’s to work on the plantations.
60% Bhojpuri and 40% awadhi

This is Bhojpuri, language of Eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Great to hear very clear accents and easy to understand their speech.
Language of Bihar to be specific....
@@abdullahhassan9544 Not really, it's a language of Uttar Pradesh too
@@abdullahhassan9544 balia , deoria, gazipur
Gorakhpur etc speak bhojpuri and they are in UP
Love this language this was how my grandparents use to speak in fiji but now its not the same because they want to speak the standard hindi language 😒 which isn't our mother tongue. They just want to speak shubh hindi.
This culture is (wonderfully!) similar to that we have in Guyana among the Indians there. Terrific!
Hi. I'm Indian. My question is, do Guyanese people still speak any Indian languages? Especially older Indo-Guyanese people?
And do they still retain cultural practices like Diwali, Holi and Eid celebration, Indian food etc
Yes we do

Incredible it’s amazing to see this being an Indian💕😍😍😍
Hi brothers and sisters, i'm born in UK, parents from Fiji, and great grandparents from Faizabad, I understand 99% of this, amazing to see from TH-cam, social media that we can all relate and have connections to the Girmitiyas
I am from faizabad
Challenge to protect this dialect...
Sounds very similar to the Mauritian Bhojpuri I spoke as a kid in Mauritius. It seems to sit in between Bhojpuri and Awadhi. Example: Tu ghare kab jaibe ? > Mauritian Bhojpuri - Tu ghare kab jaiboo > western Bihar Bhojpuri. Bhopuri used to be the spoken language while Hindi was the prestige dialect for radio, tv and books.
So in Suriname we say: tu ghare kab jaihyo
They also speak a few words in Dutch, that is truly amazing.
🙏namaste
Namesta all the way from Mumbai India
So I am from Ayodhya and trust me I can understand 99% of the things they are talking
Suriname native language is dutch....we use many dutch words ,when we talk bhujpuri.at home

It's kind of sad, nowadays, only the older generations in Guyana and Trinidad can speak Caribbean Bhojpuri/Awahdi fluently. Children are still taught it when they are young (for religious purposes) but as we grow older, we slowly forget until we arent able to understand a single word anymore. This is what happens when a culture tries to fit in with the English standard of the modern world, young people lose interest in maintaining their proficiency in their heritage languages.
This video is so important
❤️Awadhi
I'm Fiji-Indian, and we speak just like them.

Bhojpuri is a different language from 6th century and is older than hindi.
