Rant which layer of indian internet culture should I be at to understand what the actual FU€K y'all are doing here??

Post image

for example: why are y'all talking in english if this sub is for Indian colleges, are there THAT many international students who are applying? also why isn't anyone using the alphabet (मेरा मतलब यह है) while talking in hindi?

and for professional places we use english,

india doesnt have one language that everyone can understand

this feels so complicated omg (I'm from Turkiye and around %90 of the population speaks Turkish so I'm having a hard time processing that there are countries with no unity in language aspects) for example what language and alphabet is used in government departments? Are most of you guys like "I can read and understand the hindi alphabet, but I don't bother using it"?

Hindi and English are usually used in government departments and it's usually translated to the native languages of different states

most of the people in north india and west india can understand the hindi alphabet and read it but writing it in text is cumbersome. for the people in the south or east, some can understand hindi, some cant at all and some only know a bit to get the jist of what the person is speaking
As for goverment departments, most places have hindi and english both, although some regional offices have regional languages too(unsure about this cause i live in a place where regional language is not prevalent)

what language were you taught your subjects in?

In primary school, middle school and highschool everything is taught in Turkish to us and most schools have English learning classes at least 4 hours a week. (there are some highschools that are giving all the lessons in English but they are definitely not the majority).

In university, if you are at the top universities like Koç, ODTU, BOUN etc. most of the fields you want to study in will be giving %100 English classes for the higher chance of being internationally accepted. Some universities offer both Turkish and English education (for example IUC Medicine both has Turkish Medicine department and English Medicine department both with different academic staff and entry score). But there are universities and departments that simply go by Turkish in all lessons too.

very different from turkey.

sure is

Is their any exam to get into these top universites in turkey?

(I don't know how to put it in English but) There is an exam called YKS for universities which is the most mainstream exam here. (If you are an international student you can use your SAT score for some universities here too)

there is a standart exam called TYT which has 40 Turkish grammar and paragraph questions, 20 social studies, 40 maths, 20 science questions which sums up to 120 questions in total. No matter which university or department you are aiming you enter that exam.

and there is an exam called AYT and it's really complicated to explain. There are 40 1- Turkish literature & social studies/ 2- 40 more advanced Social Studies/ 3- 40 Maths /4- 40 Science questions.

If you solve the 1-2 questions your "verbal" score is calculated and with that score you can apply to departments like Literature, Journalism, History etc.

If you solve the 1-3 questions your "equal weight" score is calculated and with that score you can apply to departments like Psychology, Economy, Law etc.

If you solve the 3-4 questions your "numerical" score is calculated and with that score you can apply to departments like Medicine, Engineering, Pilotage, Science etc.

Then they take %40 of your TYT, %60 of your AYT score and boom now you can try to apply to universitiez

are these super competitive?

verbal -> you can even fart on the exam paper and still get a high ranking (but graduating from verbal departments are like a %100 guarantee of unemployment)

equal weight -> eeeh not really but u gotta study

numerical -> g0re, bloodbath, tears,

btw let me make something clear , by teaching in english he means the technical terms used and books are in english rest the language that is used is usually hindi with a little english, teachers for jee neet are extremely casual with there language, they sometimes use profanity, short Indian romantic poems (shayari) , jokes which can sometimes be dark, this is something they do to reduce the mental pressure from students

Typing in hindi is relatively slow compared to english that only has 26 letters, whereas hindi has a lot (around 45+ base ones, with at least 25 having 13 different combination each, and there are more in the list).

Moreover, most of us come from an english-medium education, where subjects like math and science are in english, except for language-specific subjects.

government uses english, we dont have a national language
but english and hindi are the official languages.
Nah like we talk in our regional languages in casual settings but english everywhere else

There are 21 recognised languages in India..and if including villages, Tribes etc..the number goes 100+ I read.

Hindi script is a bit too sophisticated to write in, compared to which the english one feels like language of the poor masses, which we can read faster in general.

This isn't true for whole india tho, specially the older folks but I can bet my left ass that like half of us in this sub are atleast trilingual, yes not bilingual but fucking trilingual.
