hello and welcome to another edition
edition
edition I
I love how to get through with it
it English fast today
today I wanted to talk about
about your language not English your
your language there are sold many
many borrowed words in
in English and its a really interesting
interesting thing if you can just
just
just remember
remember some of your own words from
from your language and
and learned a few from other languages
languages that we commonly
commonly using English there are plenty
plenty of
plenty of root
root words these are words that come
come from French or Latin other
other words that become english words
words but some words from languages
languages and even poll phrases from
from other languages become things
things that we use English
English so in this lesson I wanted
wanted to go over a
a few different words and phrases
phrases from different
different origins other than America
America or Australia Canada or
or the UK and talk about a little
little bit how
how they function in English today
today now
today now one
one of the things about using these
these different words is that sometimes
sometimes the pronunciation gets a
a little bit fucked
fucked up don't mean to curse in front
front of everybody but that's basically
basically what happens and
and this is why the translation of
of things I can get a little bit tricky
tricky from one language to another
another
another for
for example I'm living in Japan now
now and will look first at the word
word
word karaoke
karaoke now I'm in Japan and a lot
lot of you have probably heard the
the word karaoke before if
if I say karaoke to japanese people
people they have no idea what I'm
I'm saying the
the correct pronunciation their I
I can even say the word pronunciation
pronunciation properly but the
the correct pronunciation of the word
word karaoke in
in japanese av be cut okay and what
what we're doing is connecting cutout
cutout which is hoping
hoping and okay which is orchestra
orchestra so it's interesting that
that a Japanese word karaoke actually
actually keen from English in the
the first place so open
open orchestra came to Japan became
became
became cut
cut okay and then came back to america
america and then became karaoke
karaoke the same thing is true for
for karate we
we see Karate English instead of cut
cut it in
cut it in Japanese
Japanese and also we have a come kamikaze
kamikaze kamikaze in English I which
which is actually cuz it in
in Japanese this is for someone that
that is sacrificing themselves for
for somebody else by killing
killing themselves for the greater
greater good about somebody else so
so now we move into differently alright
alright
alright let's
let's talk about the word grew you'll
you'll hear this a
a lot no matter what you're doing
doing eating on YouTube YouTube has
has a whole list of gurus if you're
you're
you're a
a guru your and expert at something
something so you can say I am expert
expert it's something but it's kind
kind of cool to see your grew
grew obviously the pronunciation is
is probably a little bit different
different than somebody in India would
would actually be be
be using have heard hot glue maybe
maybe I'm
maybe I'm pronouncing
pronouncing that he improperly I don't
don't know but its a
a very common word used in English
English blue grew

it before it's also in Japan in
in the pronunciation changes a little
little bit depending on where you
you go
