Episode 2: Shashi Tharoor is back! [Correcting India's English.]

Episode 2 is finally here! If you enjoyed episode 1 of the conversation between Dr Tharoor and The English Nut, you will love episode 2. Many have interviewed Dr Tharoor on the subject of English, but this conversation is special. I'm The English Nut and I am as obsessed with the language as Dr Tharoor – which makes for a witty conversation indeed. One that is chock-full of observations about English. You can watch it for the learnings, or simply enjoy the banter. BUT FIRST, PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO SUBSCRIBE TO The English Nut! HIT THE BELL ICON TOO. Then you'll know as soon as I release a new video. In this video we will discuss Dr Tharoor's pet peeves when it comes to English mistakes. As the 'English teacher to the nation', he will help us correct some of these mistakes. He will also talk about George Orwell and the darker side of 'political English'. All in all an absorbing, entertaining and enlightening conversation! (This conversation was recorded months ago, but for various reasons – not the least of which is the pandemic – it did not see the light of day earlier.) In case you are new to The English Nut, I create weekly videos on the nuances of English. My objective is to introduce people to the finer points of the language while keeping them entertained. English is nuts. And I’m nuts about English. The English Nut is present on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter as well:   / theenglishnut     / theenglishnut     / nut_english   Core team on the Shashi Tharoor project: Priyank Bengali, Jay Morzaria * #TheEnglishNut #ShashiTharoor #TEN #GrammarNazi #pronunciation #BritishEnglish #IndianEnglish #doublespeak #Video #English #Vocabulary #Words #FunnyEnglish #LearnEnglish #EnglishLesson #EnglishTips #Tutorial #Advanced #Grammar #SpeakEnglish #education #BritishCouncil #BritishCouncilIndia #EnglishLanguageFacts #BritishEnglish #Orwellian #GeorgeOrwell
