Welcome back to ask Alicia the Weekly Siri's, where you ask me questions and I answer them maybe.

Okay, let's get to your first question this week.

First question this week comes from Mohammed Sherif.

What's the difference between not related to and nothing to do with Okay, if you're talking about anything other than people, so not people objects situations, then generally they mean the same thing.

Nothing to do with has a little bit stronger emphasis.

Nothing to do with sounds like absolutely zero.

Nothing, whereas not related to sounds like a little bit less intense.

This question has nothing to do with cooking.

Today's meeting had nothing to do with marketing.

Today's meeting was not related to marketing, so both of these example sentences or both of these pairs of examples rather communicate the same idea.

It's just that nothing to do with maybe sounds a little more intense, like closer to zero.

We really want to emphasize no connection at all if, on the other hand, you're talking about people not related to and nothing to do with are very different.

He has nothing to do with me in the first part.

Not related to it refers to no family connection with me.

In the second example, he has nothing to do with me.

There's no connection there in the sentence.

However, it just means there's no family connection.

He could be my friend or my roommate or my co worker, something like that.

But he's not related to me specifically means family member.

So when you're talking about people, this is a key difference between these two expressions.

Nothing to do with no connection at all, not related to just means no family connection again.

When you're talking about things other than people however, you can use them pretty much interchangeably to me.

Nothing to do with sounds a little bit more like emphatic than not related to.

Okay, let's move on to your next question.

Next question comes from una de Hello again.

I ran across the word overlap with a meaning like meat, for instance, we never overlapped.

Ah, so this use of overlap means to be in the same situation or the same place as another person at the same time.

So, for example, if you're talking about where you work and you work a company A and my friend Resa usedto work a company.

And you could say, Ah, yeah, we overlapped a little bit or no, we didn't overlap.

So in the yes answer there, it means I worked a company a at the same time as recess.

So you can imagine overlapping being like your work overlapped, so she and I shared the same work space for a period of time.

If the answer is negative, no, we didn't overlap.

It's like saying no, We didn't share the same situation.

So overlap means being in the same place or the same situation.

So this is not so common in everyday conversation.

We use this as in the example in, like work or business situations.

You might also hear it used a lot in politics and in government situations as well to talk about like, for example, when world leaders are in the same place or when their terms overlap.

So when they're in office holding their government positions as the same time as other people, that's another situation.

You may hear it as well in like universities or in other, like college school related situations when you want to sound a bit more formal.

But in general, we don't use this so much in everyday conversation.

Instead, we might say, Oh, I worked there at the same time as your person or oh, I worked there at the same time as Resa, for example, so overlap means being in the same place of the same situation at the same time as someone or something else.

What is the difference between as and while, For example, while I was walking, I ate an apple, and as I was walking, I ate an apple.

And while there's no difference, actually, you can use both as and while to talk about two actions that happen at the same time.

For example, I ate potato chips while I watch TV and ate potato chips as I watched TV to me personally, as sounds a little bit more formal, so I tend to use while more when I'm speaking and when I'm writing.

Also, I will use while before the main action and same thing for as I tend to put the word before the main action.

So in this case, for me, watching TV is the main action, and eating potato chips is kind of like the extra action or the bonus action words for some of you may be eating potato chips is the main action.

That's fine, but for me, watching TV is the main action.

So I usually put that after a while or as another example.

I listen to music while I washed the dishes and I listen to music as I washed the dishes.

So again, in this situation, the main activity is washing dishes.

So I place while or as before that, and listening to music is sort of like the bonus or the extra activity.

So, yes, you can use as and while in the exact same way here to talk about actions that happen at the same time again for me, while sounds a little more casual, so I tend to prefer that a bit more in my everyday speaking and writing.

What's the difference between till and until, And how do we use them correctly?

So your original question included until and till t i l l I want to introduce t i l There are these three different spellings.

So you will see native speakers use all three of these until till with two l's and till with one l so until and till can be used interchangeably until until with one l I should specify Here we use till like with one l commonly in time and distance expressions.

For example, it's 10 till two you might hear to use in this situation as in its tend to two.

Ah, but you can use till in that case or as in like a time and distance related thing like when you're traveling, for example, it's gonna be another hour till we get there.
