Warranty or gaurrantee

How does the guarantee differ from the warranty?

at the time of purchase do the sales person give us the gaurrantee or the warranty?

I would be grateful if you enlighten me with examples.

Hi hrsanei Here is a definition of warranty: a written guarantee given to the purchaser of a new appliance, automobile, or other item by the manufacturer or dealer, usually specifying that the manufacturer will make any repairs or replace defective parts free of charge for a stated period of time. So you see that a guarantee, like a promise, can be verbal or written, but a warranty is written. Guarantee is often used informally (as a noun or verb); warranty is much more formal.
