another year, another debate on pronunciations

guys help a brotha out here pls.

seeing as we had an issue on how to pronounce the desi vermicelli dessert dish (“semviyan” versus “sehviyan”) - okies i had an issue :vivo:

now the question is:

is it “dahi bhallay” or “dahi barray”

?!?!

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

Dahi Barray

Suh-vay-yan

:fatee:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

we already established it was semviyan!! :grumpy:

i’m not sure, i still question you about dahi barray. mama sweets has never corrected me on that one :hmmm:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

bhallay if you are punjabi and barray if you are karachian.

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

saaaaayviyaaaaaaaN
dahi bhaLLay

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

khatti isnt a karachiite :frowning:
@Ess_Emm bhallay bhallay? :nuch:

super hungry today, with the dahi bhallay and semviyan talk now :hinna:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

yes she is you paindu

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

SINCE WHEN??

i refuse to believe khatti knows where she’s from :grumpy:

mods you can move this to cafe. i’ve taken it to that level :frowning:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

It is called Sehviyan but I have noticed, some of my Indian mates call vermicelli Semviyan.

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

No one but @sweefs ever called it semviyan - not you've validated her - nahi!!!! It is actually sevaiyN (with a noon ghunna). And yes, Karachiites call it dahi barray.

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

i fail to see whats so bad about someone sometimes validating me once in a while rather than tearing me apart all the time :grumpy: it’s not like i’d constantly gloat and make your gs lives miserable :sweetif: would i ever do that? would i reaaaally? :blush:

thanks for giving me the right to gloat lilly :smiley:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

This.

Now pass some over.

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

dai pallay - in punjabi :jhanj:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

Khatti’s hubby is a 100% karachiite and khattis maternal and paternal families left Hyderabad for a pit stop in Karachi before settling in Amreeka so khatti’s ties to Karachi are therefore established and it’s still dahi barray and there is no “**m” **​in Savaiyan :blush:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

khatti needs to be punjabi :naraz:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

dahi vada

semiya

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

I am telling you, people from India call it Semiyan. I have even confirmed with my Indian colleague and she said semiyaan lmao :rotfl:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

Thank you queer :biggthumb:

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations

Re: another year, another debate on pronunciations
