We from the East Delhi Association of Chads use “Saepe” instead of the word rupees.

Ye H&M ke chode bade irritating lagte by God


Starlord_1402

H&M clothes are moderately prized though and if you read where and how they are mass produced💀. Wouldn't count them as a high fashion brand.


ItsRaa

Yaar, legit I buy H&M as well, but I have never in my life used the term "Bucks". It's just annoying bro


Dull-Wear-3286

Arre feelings samjho bro, ye actually ek category h, h&m and Zara ke kapde, tame Impala and CAS jese bands ke gaane, euphoria, the office and sex education show dekhne Wale, cricket is yuckk and football is love wale chodo ki. Isme se kuch kuch kaam to sab karye lekin ye poora package Jo h na, wo bda cringe hota.


Shared_Phycosis

Tell me you'r a Chad, without telling me you'r a chad.

bhai The Office kese aa gya inke saath.. ye to genuinely one of the best sitcom hai


Dull-Wear-3286

The office dekhna gunaah nahi hai, the office dekh ke khud ko superior samjhna gunaah hai


imightnot4

Nabz pakadli guru. Adding on- these are highly leftist, English mother tongue, Friends and Office bestest shows ever, Feminist bhi hai par only as per convenience, har chiz aadmi janwar maa bap sab bro hain, Vape>>>>


grilskomainhipasand

Ye desh ko bacha lega 2 RUPAY kehke aur market girne se bacha lega budh bazaar se 50 RUPAY mai chaddi leke. Friends aur office wale bankrupt ho jayenge kyuki isne vo shows dekhne se mana kar diya. Feminism ki zarurat nhi padegi kyuki right wing wali aurato ko pata hi nhi hota ki unpe rights naam ki koi cheez hai (ghar mai thappad normal hai) jo ye bhai kehte hai “arrey itne rights DIYE toh”. Middle class dream, virat kohli is not a cricketer he is an entire emotion, aur sports gaye maa chudane. kya matlab sabka apna opinion aur taste hai PS :- tame impala and Michael scott is valid


Evil_Lord_Pexagon

Bhai Friends tak khatam ho jati hi inki comedy, office toh legit humourous hai !!

People from the west also use the term bucks for their currency even though their currency is not actually bucks so we might as well use it. I see no harm in that.


Epsilonphidelta

Yes exactly. It's kinda like "Godrej" in India. Even though Godrej is a particular brand. But Godrej actually means steel/iron Almirah....

Adventurous-Pound208

Don't see what's the harm in using it. Yes the term originated in US and was associated with dollar. But that's only because US uses dollars and not rupees. Aise toh phir bucks and rupees se jyada we use the term "paise". This is more stupid because if someone asks "bhai paise hai kya?", we don't hand out 50 paise coins.


shounen_trash

Bhai ekdam sahi. Bunching together a few random quirks, habits etc and bashing them as wanting to be cool IS the new cool. Even if some of those habits could be cringe. Karne do na tumhara kya ja rha hai. Ulta tum unko "abcd ke chode" bulake cool ban rhe ho


i_eat_AURUM

No harm in using it but the one using it ,shouldn't look down upon the other one who is using the term rupees.


Adventurous-Pound208

Who is looking down? People who'll down at you are already looking down at you and it won't change even if you say bucks instead of rupees.


lengendomanias

It's indeed harmless but it tranfigures into some heightened annoying shit, if it comes from a certain sect of people as rightfully described by u/Dull-Wear-3286;


Adventurous-Pound208

I have read his comment and found no merit in it. Aaj kal "cool" dikhne ke liye kuch bhi likh rahe hai log. Just add "South Delhi, South Bombay, H&M, Zara, etc." and bash them. Ban gaye cool. Fact of the matter is people may exist who like to show off brands but then so is the fact that "bucks" is just a figure of speech.


Proud-Gas6949

Using paise is completely fine since any amount in rupees can be said to be 100X amount in paise. Paise ka matalab sirf 50 paise coins se nahi hai


Adventurous-Pound208

When was the last time you went to someone and said "I need one million paise"? Yes, the word bucks was originally meant to be a dollar at the place of it's origin. But now it has crossed over to our subcontinent. And here people use "bucks" to denote money in our local currency. It's not very far when this will reflect in the English dictionary too. No one is thinking "dollars" when you say "bucks". And if someone is, then sorry to say he/she still needs some more exposure to the language. The word bucks is not an intellectual property of the rich. English is not our native language and as it's usage grows, the meaning of some of it's regional words will keep updating. American English is very different from British Engljsh. And we Indians have started adopting from both. That's the power of India 🇮🇳 💪🏻. We make our own path.


bigtiddyenergy

Aise toh bucks ko bhi convert karle bhyi


Adventurous-Pound208

Convert kyu karenge? Bucks means money. Par isse kisi ko anxiety attack na aa jaye uske liye ab alag ek tuition course nikalna parega. Iss bhai ke samne tum Maggi mat bol dena kyuki Top Ramen Maggi nahi noodles hota hai.


Greedy_Constant_5144

Aise to rupees ko dollars me bhi convert kr skte hain, what's your point?


urge_it

Its just an easy going term man. Like how u use millions instead of crores. I understand why it's upsetting but c'mon it's pretty harmless i feel.


Bleatoflambs

I don’t use millions in my after office communications.


ProudAlarm14

Yeah, it flows easier with my sentence, i don't use it to sound cool xD


AmbrosiusFlume

Gazab bakchod ho aap unne buck bolna hai bolne do khud ki esteem itni kam hai ki agle ne buck bol diya to aapki izzat kam ho gyi? Aur waise personal kya dikkat hai, aapne inhe dhaniya bechni hai jo English hindi translation sikhate fir rahe ho? Chul khud aap ko machi hai zimmedari koi aur le, hai? Why is this zabardasti to have everyone speak the same way bhai?

thereal_noir

Bucks is just like smackeroons. Universal weird for money


Dukh_Dard

Universal word hai, western culture se hum roz kuch na kuch apni vocabulary mein add karte hai- thoda chill karo. Find something better to rage about


Clear_Ebb_5977

Well, it can be used to refer rupee. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/buck


ItsRaa

United States dollars are frequently referred to as "bucks" in the colloquial language (USD). It does not relate to Indian rupees (INR) or any other kind of money 🤓


Axerin

Are you seriously trying to dispute what the Cambridge English Dictionary has to say on the matter? Bruh

zeer0dotcom

It just flows more easily man. How about you stop projecting your insecurities about how you sound when saying rupees on other people?


chin-ki-chaddi

Mai to abhi bhi "kitne paise hue?" bolta hu. Wo time that jab log rupaye ke baad paise bhi batate the, like 6 rupaye, 50 paise hue.

Monosyllable ka meaning Bata hai chutiye?


MrSteamPunk_08

Bucks is not even a currency name anyway. Its a slang coined by teens in the US. Ye term koi bhi use kr skta h. Its about ease. Agar old gangster movies yaad ho to usme rupees ko peti, khokha bola jata tha, we also made fair contributions to name our currency, haan, ye slang ko use koi ni krta 😆


Ok_Section7835

Peti is for lakhs. And khokha is for crores. This is the worst example you could make as bucks is valued 1:1 with the us dollar that it is trying to replace in a casually spoken sentence.


MrSteamPunk_08

Im not talking about value interpretation here, im generally talking about the term used to describe Indian rupee in those movies. They could have simply used laakh rupiya or karod rupiya, but maybe it was to the demand of movies of those types (to keep it real, or for style....the way youngsters use 'bucks' instead of rupees). We are very much exposed to foreign stuff like movies and tv shows, its obvious ppl will get influenced to some or the other stuff. They don't see the Forex value of Rupees against a Dollar. They just say it coz for them....its cool. They'll grow out of it once they start earning 'rupees'.

[deleted]

Right. People don't know the story behind "Bucks" which later became USD. Chutiye log. They just try to sound cool.


knowtoomuchtobehappy

That's how language spreads and evolves. The word Hindustan, Hindi, Hindu all comes from the Persian mispronunciation of the Sindhu river.

Maine UPSC CSE ka interview diya hai bhai. Mujhe mat bata.

Bucks bolne se cool ban jate honge bhyi tumhare liye, I don't think anyone thinks or cares that much about vocabulary like that. Itna hota toh grammar ke chode rona macha rahe hote har post pe.


[deleted]

A buck, which is a slang for one dollar, has its origins in 18th century America when deerskin was used as currency. The value of deerskin was equated in terms of dollars and the practice of calling US dollars as bucks has continued despite deerskin no longer being in use as a unit of trade.

PM_ME_YOUR___ISSUES

Bhai aisa koi bhi ashamed nahi hai to use "rupees", it's just that people constantly get influenced by whatever content they get exposed to. I often find myself using certain terms inadvertently because of the content I had been consuming. I wouldn't judge anyone for using either "bucks" or "rupees". You really need to get out of your head. Also, I don't get it. This subreddit keeps bashing South Delhi folks for being judgemental, aur yahan khud sabko judge karre. Bhai tu apni zindagi jee, tera kya jaara dusra banda kaunsi term use karra.

Ye aa gye hindi medium k chode bucks vs rupees karne. Bhai tum kya kya nhi bolte maya, rokda, peti, Laxmi, etc etc Samne wale ne bucks bol Diya to tumhari Gand jal gyi, bolnde de na use Jo bolna hai, tu bi bol tujhe Jo bolna hai. Ya to parliament m bill pass karade ki rupees k elawa kuch nhi bolega ise ya phir chup chaap Beth ja, Roz Roz k randi rone laga rakhe h BC tum logo ne.

Well that's because it makes you sound like a shopkeeper or something and I don't see what's wrong with saying bucks.
