I luv you both mam...❤️ Actually I'm a fan of you and Marina ❤️
Mes meilleures youtubeuses langues ,j'admire votre collaboration,et cet état d'esprit.C'est formidable.Desolée d'avoir écrit en français.
British accent always wins and I just love it 😍
Wahhhhhh Love you bothhhhh!!
One of my favorite collabs ever!! We need more of them! :) And super excited about our course!
🇮🇳🇮🇳🔥❤
👌🧐Good video
😃😃😃😃
I love you marina !! and thank you so much for making this great and amazing collabrition 💞💜
Despite being Russian, you were the first teacher I started to follow on CZcams. After Marina, I discovered 3 Brazilian teacher that speaks English for Brazilians, Vanessa (USA), Lucy, and Emma (Australia). But Marina was the beginning. Learned a lot from You. :)
Two of my most favorite English language creators together, it's amazing.I acquired my American accent from Marina and British accent from Lucy. Lots of love to you both. 🙂🙂
Is Marina Russian or something? She doesn't even sound American.
Same.
So true
saaaaaammmme😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes ! I also think so 🥰👍💪🏾👍👍
I don't call this British vs American English. I call this British vs Broken English.
Shut up! don't insult my our mother tounge (American 🇺🇸❤️ English)
😂
Mogilko English
Here in the US, Trolley refers to a type of bus that runs on a track and cable.
Fall season can be called autumn here also.
We use the word biscuit also,. But low in sugar more cake like and eaten during a meal. Where a cookie is high in sugar and eaten as a desert or a treat.
THE oven is a enclose portion where you bake your food.
The stove is the top (open portion) of the appliance where you use pots or pans to cook with.
Have a small comment regarding stove/oven. In America, stove is the top cooking surface while oven is for baking/broiling, the larger space under the stop top... I would disagree that the word "oven" is always used to describe where pots go when cooking, frying or warning something.
I'm an American living in Alabama. We refer to burner portion of the appliance as the "stove." The "oven" is the portion below the burners behind the door. 🙂
I'm American as well and this is incorrect. The top portion is actually called the "stovetop." The word "stove" refers to the appliance as a whole.
I stand by what I said for my region of the country.
Super madam
Same thing in Florida. We cook things on the stove or in the oven
@@benjaminvlz So in your region, would people say "I'm baking something in the stove" rather than "I'm baking something in the oven"? If so, which region is this?
American here. We do use autumn in addition to fall for the season (usually to sound fancier), and I've used autumnal, just not all that often
And from what I understand, Bob's your uncle comes from a story about a politician named Robert so-and-so who was big into nepotism, giving his nephews all sorts of government jobs, contracts, etc.
Lucy is so positive a girl . I love her teaching style and way
It's funny how I've already subscribed both of their channels a long ago.😂
It's a total bliss to see two of my favourite teachers together!❤️
Me too
Me too 😅
Me to so excited
your right
I love the fact that Lucy have decided to invite a non-native english speaker person to her program and it shows that she believes people don't need to be born and bred in an english speaking countries to be able to communicate in English. Good job!
if it is a person who has studied the language all her life, lived in an English speaking country for 6 years having totally immersed in the language environment and works as an English teacher on top of that, why not?! However, any average non-native sepaker wouldn't be eligible no matter how many years they have lived in America.
@@jandosahmet6523 comment was about it)))) why not?
@@jandosahmet6523 I think the reason why not here is that not everything she says here is quite accurate. "Special word for homes with ovens with the red knobs" and this idea that "stove" refers to a nicer cooking range rather than just any range..? I'm an native speaker of american english and I have no idea wtf she's talking about....
And you can obviously feel that she is not native
she's trying too much, collaborating with a teacher who makes mistakes? a teacher, no matter a native or not, CANNOT MAKE mistakes. Period
For me stove means the stuff on top of the oven and oven is just the oven.
I am not against a collaboration with a non-native speaker who is engaged in English teaching, but in this context Marina is not the person who can be an expert. You'd better choose another topic for your collaboration, for example, life hacks for language learning or what typical mistakes students make. Or, what mistakes Marina makes to be exact. 😂
Hi Lucy, I'm a 62 year old Canadian Man. My Grandmother was from Wales, and I've lived and worked throughout the English speaking world. Your videos have helped me in an unexpected way. Because of my connection with all three cultures. I've changed my business vocabulary to exclude UK based words and phrases when speaking to US colleagues. In some cases I was unaware that American's weren't familiar with certain terms and phrases that I used. Thank You for what you do.
Hi there, I'm an English language teacher from Argentina. I find your videos really interesting! Thanks a lot for sharing them.
What an honest conversation. Love you both of my teachers. From 🇱🇰
Yeah, it's gorgeous! it's one of my favourite collabs ever. Thanks a million for this post. Two thumbs up for y'll. Respect!
at last!!! two of my favourite english channels did a collaboration. my life has become completely perfect!
The video should be called: British English vs Russian English😂😂😂
It was really amazing experience to see both of them together...
Thank you so much...
Thank you so much Linguarina and Lucy for such an informative lesson!
Lucy, i really admire you even more for inviting a non-native speaker (absolutely professional) for this collab! Marina is a shiny example of how much you can achieve in a foreign language with enough dedication. I am just sick of how some schools discriminate against non-native teachers judging them by their passports.
The most inspiring teacher in my life is my non-native speaker teacher in Russia. It's not about being a native speaker, it's about inspiring students and making them believe in themselves!
We do use autumn and autumnal in American English. Many people say fall but everyone would know what youre talking about if you say autumn. Its also a common name for a girl. Stove and oven have been discussed in the comments but we also call it a "range." A range is an oven and stove top that is one unit as compared to an oven and countertop cooktop sold separately.
I have heard people say "feels fall-ish" in the US;)
@@juliaistominaoden5801 May depend on where you live. In New York and New England, I rarely hear fall-ish. Mostly autumnal and sometime fall-like.
@@PurnaRodman crazy, east coast you guys say autumnal? neat. I've heard in CA, it feels fall-y fall-ish something like that
@@kalidilerious Probably because the East Coast physically closer to England, has been speaking English longer and has a full fledged fall and four seasons. Fall-ish would be understood here, but it would be folly to use the word fall-y, as you would be misunderstood. ;-)
oh! it's a great collaboration,, i really really really want more of videos of both of you,, i follow you both separately and wished to see you together and surprisingly the video came infront of me,it just amazed me 🤩 🤩 make this type of video more please🥺🥺
Love the differences! I'm from Nigeria, and we call egg plants, garden eggs. That's because we mostly grow and eat the small whitish type of them.
Don't know the origin of that name, but I'm guessing it's because they have the shape and look of an egg, and well... they're grown and harvested.
Finally my favorite teachers Collab together! It's exciting to see you together ❤️😘
in American English it's actually an oven for where you put food INSIDE, and a stove is the top (a stovetop)
My 2 favourite ladies! What an amazing collaboration! I've learnt a lot!
This was another wonderful video Lucy! I am so glad with all the efforts you and your dear friends put together to help the others! Good on you! Thank you so much to you and Marina this time! Cheers, Beck😊
It's so delightful to see my two favourite teacher together 🥰 Thank you so much for making this collaboration!!
I find Marina quite impressive. Not only is she a decent teacher - English isn’t even her mother tongue!
@@user-no2mz9hl4f English isn't her Mother Tongue because she isn't really American, making this video clickbait.
@@hello-cn5nh I see what you mean, but it also seems as though she’s made a strong effort to familiarise herself with American culture and the American dialect.
Thank you so much for positive and informative lesson. I got an energy boost. Such a pleasure to see both incredible English teachers together.
This is absolutely helpful program.
Thank you Lucy & Lingau!🖐🏻
Lucy I learn english from your channel so much! English is not my 1st language but I still have a normal accent, although I do pronounce some words wrong and yeah! And I think its really a good way to learn english by asking people from other countries on how they speak english :D
As an American, I would say a stove is something that you cook on (on the stove-top), however, you stoke it with wood, and it also heats your home. It’s rather old school compared to today’s modern homes. It’s like a furnace that you cook on top of. NOT an oven.
Over my life I have lived in various parts of the U.S.A. and have always called the appliance used to cook a stove, with the baking/broiling portion being called the oven and what the Brits call a hob being called the stovetop. I may have picked this up from living in the New England area of the states...Just to put more choices in the mix here. :D Great video.
Thanks, girls. This teaming is exciting! 💙
Hi! I know this isn't related to the video and the comment but do you also watch Study with Merve because I saw a reply with your name and profile pic?
@@starsstars4458 Yeah. Hey fellow student 🤓🤓
Lucy had said in an earlier lesson that "I'm good" is properly said, "I'm quite well ..." ! ❤😊
The other video with native speakers of American and Canadian English was so much better. This wasn’t what a native American English speaker would likely answer for all these questions. Odd choice, but I see why given the promo for the course collab.
I love this kind of videos where we can see the differences and similarities between different accents. Thank you!!!
czcams.com/video/K-vBgu4okXk/video.html
I loved this class, when I was at school I had a good English level. Then 15 years have passed and one day I wanted to start over and I didn’t understand anything. I thought, what’s happening I forgot everything! One day I heard about Lucy and wow it was amazing, I understood everything. I realized I learnt British English instead of American English so I fell in love with Lucy and I have learnt a lot with her videos, I LOVE YOU LUCY 💜
This was incredibly helpful and really interesting to see
In American, toilet is the porcelain device only and not a room. In American houses, the toilet was traditionally in the same room with the bath. So, to use the toilet you had to go to the bathroom.
Приятная коллаборация которую никто не ожидал😃
Нежданчик
Так я вообще приахуела 🤧
For studies lucy is recommended because her sounds is explicit
Okay, Honda Odyssey
@@markwhite9019 Odessey?
I always wanted this collab 😄😄😄(my two favourite teachers on one platform)
Hi I am an English learner.
One of best english conversation I show In youtube we need more of them
Thank you Lucy and Marina for sharing and comparing Brittish and American english word! It was very interesting and fun to hear about your thoughts and reactions about the meaning of the words. Also it's good to know what you're calling different things in your respective countries! I'm from Sweden and here we even use many american words in our swedish language daily.
This wanna be American from Russia got a crazy Russian accent.
Lucy,I love your professional approach,I fancy your lovely lessons!!!
Hello Lucy, This is really a nice video of you with Marina from America discussing the vocabularies of British and American English. I'm also watching the videos of Marina who is teaching American English. Marina is actually from Russia. In fact she came to America and studied American English and now teaching to students online like you teach British English Lucy. But I mostly would prefer to learn British English from you Lucy
Hi, I'm brazilian, and I studying English, and I loving your chanel. It's helping me a lot
In the last few days, I watched videos and searched for other content about British vs American English. It was really useful, thanks for it! As a Hungarian (so compared to the Hungarian language), I can say that American English is much more logical, understandable and easier than British - talking about meaning, spelling, and pronunciation. Despite in the schools, we learn the British form.
I'm pretty sure everyone in America knows the word autumn, and of course there is an autumnal equinox.
An oven is a component of a fee standing gas or electric stove. An oven can be individual structure in the kitchen wall/cabinet,you can have a double oven -one oven above another built in the kitchen wall/cabinet
What a wonderful British accent Lucy has. It's been a long time since I last watched your videos.
Thanks for such a cool lesson, that was so fun!
So exciting!!!
Two of my favorite English teachers on CZcams
Always support you two ❤️
I love the way u speak Lucy..it's like ur voice is really satiating
It was really a very enjoyable and entertaining program. I watched you with pleasure. Thank you very much Lucy and Marina for your contribution.
I loved this session. I would like to see more of this.
My two favorite teachers collaboration , love you both from India ❤️
Americans say fall and autumn, and I have used the term autumnal. It isn't common but it is used by some people.
A biscuit is an old word from Holland sailors when they took it on the board for a big trip. "Bi" always means double, meaning a cookie fried from both sides.
My favourite teachers ❤
I really loved it i hope u do this more often ❤
Finally my two favorite teacher.... love the way how u teach us...❤️❤️ thank you for the collaboration ❤️❤️
Thanks for ur comment
Kindly subscribe to my CZcams channel czcams.com/channels/JLKvc_fPLEBX-Whr4NA8bQ.html
We say autumn too and yes we say autumnal too.
I really enjoyed the video and couldn't wait to drop comment about how much I like this collab😊😊😊 as I've been following both of them to learn English...this was just "incredible" to see them in one video..love the way they talk to each other❤
Really enjoyed the video..I am India and we completely follow the British english like cooker, biscuit, pavement etc etc (for obvious reasons) and I also lived in the US for few years due to work and can totally relate to the American vocab as well. Had fun watching...thanks to both of you
Haan sahi kaha
Obvious, bcz british had been ruled our country so that, we follow british english. *if Australian or americans have ruled country we follow their English* just complicayed
Two of my favourite English CZcamsr teacher in a video. I’d been waiting for this for a long long time. 😍😍
Want more of you two together
Just wow!! I never really thought that words and phrases could be so different in the US and in Britain
I've learnt something and really enjoyed it, perfect collaboration,
I also watched linguamarina to be fair for you both. 😂 I really love watching and learning from you both. ♥️
I would say this session is absolutely worthy for me because I have learned something about how's the words using and the meaning may differ from US versus UK. That was incredible😍. Thank you so much dear Lucy brings up a valuable session for us❤️
Can you help me with british english please?
worthy -> worthwhile
using -> usage
Hope that's helpful.
Oh my world!!! I so much enjoyed this class😍. My notepad is loaded🤩
At 9:03, Americans absolutely have the word autumnal. Granted, it may now be a relic that only we older folks use, but it's absolutely a word in American English and you can find it in our dictionaries if you're so inclined to look for it.
In the United States, we use both the words "fall" and "autumn". I have certainly heard the word "autumnal" used here as well. I am a bit older than both of the two of you in this video, being a baby boomer. I do not know if my over sixty years of exposure to the language here has anything to do with it.
It doesn't, marina is just ignorant and not qualified to teach AmE. Lucy just turned a blind eye to that (probably for the fame&money)
I thought it was really interesting, because I'm French and I've never noticed that british words look like more often to French than american ones. We also have "l'aubergine, les toilettes, la frange, l'automne, le biscuit...".
C'était vraiment cool ! Merci beaucoup, vous êtes géniales !
And Courgette.... ❤️
I learned a lot from this video. Thank you so much ✨
Thank you so much for compassion with us ma'am ❣️🥰
Aahhha finally my two favourite English Teacher together ❣️
Lots of 💕 to you both for this amazing collaboration ❣️
Lucy: aubergine
Marina: eggplant
Me: Brinjal
Me, horrible, mr Singh. A dreadful buisness. ( even curried ).
absolutely fantastic video! happy to say I knew 99% of these :)
Two of my favourite English Teacher and CZcamsr🥰🥰I love them very much 😍
It's really interesting the differences from British English to American English. Thank you so much Teachers!!! ❤
They re almost same stuff.
I've just realized that I use both UK and US vocabularies at the same times during conversation all this time😂
@lallideepmehak yeah😂😂😂
Yeah same. here in Malaysia we tend to mix American English and British
Same especially in india
I love the way they get along😊
I really appreciate your amazing lessons.
Two of the best English tutors in one frame ❤️
No American, absolutely no one would say "why won't I be". The expression is "why wouldn't I be". Why did you choose a non-native speaker to represent a whole country language specifics?

U.S. range has a cooktop and oven, but you can buy the cooktop and oven as distinct appliances.
It is very interesting conversation,thank you Marina and Lucy
She is Russian (or Ukranian perhaps) and her accent is a mixture of american and russian.
she is russian who doesn't support Ukraine and doesn't care about the war that HER country started
She is Russian, from St Petersburg
My heartiest thanks to both the teachers. Being an Indian from the North East India it's very interesting to know the use of words in American and British English.
Is there online courses ?
So good madam.
Thank you both for the amazing video.
I've lived in the USA for almost 4 years and acquired American accent, then I returned to Russia and continued study English, but the British English. Now my accent is mixed and it's only just recently did I realise that I like British English pronunciation much more than American. After meeting Lucy here on YT and hearing her beautiful accent I felt in love with British English.
How old were you while you were here?
@@s-p-man5271 12-16 years old
How cool! Have you heard any Anya Taylor-Joy interviews? That's what I imagine you sounding like just from your explanation.🤩
Главное марину не смотри)
Can you help me with british english
Don't be ridiculous, since when did Marina become an expert in American English)))
🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely
one of my favorite duos,good job!
I loved the "and bob's your uncle" one ... I am going to start using it whenever I can to see people's reactions
Russian talks about "How American would say" Oh , that's so weird
😂😂😂😂
But amazing job❤
Because she might be much better than many native Americans.
She is not
@@Rybo2107 you may wish to google the term "native American" lol
It's so interesting the differences between both. I feel like the british english is really close to french for many words (like "fringe" = "frange" in french, "aubergine" which is the same in word in french, "torch" which is "lampe torche" in french, "biscuit" same word etc etc) :)
I speak French so yes. But for flashlight, I would say la lampe de poche.
@@sogorgeous2257 Yeah that's an other word for it but I think lampe torche is more correct :)
More collaboration like this 🤩😍 girls, you're amazing 😍🙌
This colaboration is amazing!!
It's so amazing to see you both in one video. Thank you. I'm so excited!
