Yes, there is a big difference in these 2 words:
Till as a verb means to prepare land for planting.
Till as a noun means a cash register or drawer for money, or sediment deposited by melting glaciers or ice sheets.
Until is a preposition/conjunction used to mean up to the point in time or up to the mentioned event or situation.
'Til used as in ''Til the cows come home..' or the song ''Til There Was You' is the poetic form of until.
Some dicionaries define till as a preposition/conjuction that stands on its own and is very often used interchangeably with until, but I find the definition of this usage to be too vague as different from until.
No
Till is not a shortened form of until but is the older word; the un- of until adds the element 'up to, as far as'. The two words can both be used as prepositions (e.g. until/till tomorrow) or conjunctions (e.g. until/till we reach home) They are largely interchangeable, except that until is more usual at the beginning of a sentence and can sound somewhat more formal, especially in speech.Read more: until-till-usage
"Up till" is a casual way of saying "until," implying a specific point in time. The main difference between the two is that "up till" is more informal and typically used in spoken language, while "until" is more formal and widely accepted in written communication.
