A lot of the places in East London are Benglali - especially around Brick Lane. West London has a lot more Panjabi speakers, especially around Hounslow area and heading towards Heathrow.
Same, there was even a job I found on Indeed when looking where one of the requirements was to be able to speak Hindi. In my part of north west London Hindi and Gujarati are definitely more common than Bengali.
@@MrQuizYeah growing up in Croydon I knew almost no Hindustani speakers. Punjabi and gujarati were the big ones. Small amount of Tamil. I knew more Indian families that spoke English at home than Hindi. Couple of Pakistani families that spoke Urdu (I think. I was young). Note: this was YEARS ago. No idea what the current statistics for the borough would be
Great vid, as an American, I would love to see you do this type of video over cities like New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and more since they’re some of the most multicultural places on the planet.
Absolutely great work! You have some pretty good language knowledge (similar to me, not to brag haha) I'm not at the end of the video yet, but I expect Twi will be on there! It is basically the language of the Ashanti people, so you probably should've gotten it when you typed Ashanti!
It's a demographics thing. Portugal has always had one of the largest relative diasporas in Europe so there are large Portuguese communities in a lot of big cities in Europe and elsewhere in the world. Spanish migration to the UK is a much more recent event.
Really impressive! I'm surprised Yiddish wasn't on the list. You did quite well with the Indian languages! Marathi and Kannada were good guesses, other big ones could be Odia/Oriya, Assamese, and Konkani (I'm guessing that's the other one on K you were looking for).
Truthfully, I think most Yiddish speakers probably don't end up doing the census despite it being a legal requirement... (im a London Jew so I can say this haha)
the feel when all the Indian languages are counted but Chinese is 'Chinese' pain as a Chinese linguist for info, 'Chinese' is a language family, not a single language. Calling it a single language with dialects is Chinese propaganda.
Cantonese/Yue > Mandarin > Hakka, all three exceed 10000 people in the entirety of UK - I haven't got data solely in London though, don't think that's available.
have mixed feeling about london becoming a cultural melting pot. on the one hand my uncle was murdered by three afghan immigrants (none of whom were given prison time for it, just suspended sentences) and he would still be alive if they hadn't been let it, but on the other hand, all the takeaways are so yummy!
Bro, you deserve more subscribers.
great video once again
As a Londoner, this is an incredibly interesting video, i'm shocked as to how few Hindi speakers there are as i know many firsthand
Although the famous Indian restaurants of England are usually Bangali restaurants aren't they?

@@MrQuiz Which is an interesting distribution, as Bengal and Punjab are on the Eastern and Western ends of the Indian subcontinent 😂

I really hope people watch these quizzes and decide to make an account! I love the site - spend time on it every day

Random ass red light pfp spotted
Enjoyable video as always
as someone who lives in london , these numbers all seem really low
This was a great choice of video to do.

Yeah basically, Akan is exactly the same as Twi which is exactly the same as Ashanti, so you basically got it, and me too haha
Between that and Tigrinya I will give myself a ceremonial perfect score 😂
You should try one for New York. It's probably very similar but also different. Both cities have large Desi, Caribbean, and African populations
Really enjoyable Quiz GG's
been here since 150 subs, keep up the great work💪
Pretty interesting to see there are more Portuguese speakers than Spanish

@@Nooticusתשמור על עצמך, אחי 💚
All the best RUclips vidoes mention New Malden
I tried Sinhalese and it didn't take it, even though that is an acceptable variant of the name of the language. So I left the creator a comment.
as a non brit i got 25/50 lol
Name every language in Los Angeles California
Hebrew was a bit of a Hail Mary? Really? 😂🤣😂🤣
Oi vey!
I didn't expect there to be so many speakers, but maybe need to visit Golders Green again! 🙂
@@MrQuiz bit of a ghost town at the moment I would imagine. Many protests, all schools closed. So sad.

16:54 Hutu and Tutsi aren't languages
idk how accurate this list is, but London is the best city in the world!
London is 30% English

Understandable but 3 people do not represent a whole group
@neezduts69420 if you study Quran,yes they do
@@neezduts69420 if that group was not let in then my uncle would still be alive.
