In Australia its not uncommon to hear one person speak all these accents XD the 'posh' or cultivated accent when you're in a professional setting, the most common or general accent just everyday use (what Hemsworth speaks) and then the broad accent with a flavour of bogan is saved for your mates. Also at times i may speak with somewhat of a wog accent if im in a passionate argument with my cousins.
First one, the mate guy.. they should have played more of the interview, the clip is a funny legend. Also Irwin was a legend and his son Robert followed in his footsteps and doing good work to save animal life.
She’s not entirely knowledgeable though. Most newsreaders have a General Australian accent not the Broad one. For the “Wog” accent it’s a broadly Mediterranean based one which includes part of the Middle East.
Hemsworth has the very affected NIDA-type (drama school) accent where they're trained to annunciate words similar to a Cultivated accent so they can be understood abroad but emphasise some features of a 'typical' Australian accent for audiences overseas as a point of difference. Other examples: Russell Crowe Heath Ledger Hugh Jackman Milly Alcock Stars who don't: Eric Bana Margot Robbie Rebel Wilson Ben Mendelsohn Sam Worthington
The West Aussie accent goes from light to harsh depending on where the person is in the State. If you were closer to a coast it wouldn’t be as strong,but if it was from somebody from say the Wheatbelt or Kalgoorlie it’d be very strong.
Yes agree In SA we are quite different to Victoria for example I wonder if some “ears” hear it more than others Im from SA born and bread, I have been asked in Melbourne Bourne more than once if I’m English
I really like this kind of videos. It would be amazing to see the same with Spanish accents within countries. Like, for example, north and south in Spain.
I deal with people living in Australia but originally from Chile, Uruguay, Peru or Colombia. They say Colombia is the most different accent in Sth America & they are all different from Spain.
@@AlmostSickBoy like yeah i want to be like rich, you know like, Steve Jobs you know like yeah, like just me the money pls like I'm begging you right now like bro like just like yeah
I’m Australian and I annunciate my words a lot more when I speak with migrants here. At work if they speak very quickly with a strong accent and I don’t understand them, if they don’t slow down after I ask them to repeat, then I start speaking quickly without enunciating and they get the message lol
I'm British, and I'm sure that I can't be the only person to be taken aback by the fact that Aussies openly use the word wog. It has such a pejorative meaning in the UK.
It used to be pretty offensive in Australia too, but in the 80s and 90s, people like Nick Giannopoulis started embracing the word and using it to describe themselves, and it lost a lot of its offensiveness.
so when I was in gold coast QLD,I met an gentleman whose probably in his 60s on the train, his accent is so thick that the aussie dude next to me can't even understand him, but he seems to be understanding the both of us fine.(he uses a nokia!)
I was surprised how well some Aussie actors do American accents. To the point that I didn't know beforehand that they were not American. Good examples are Toni Collette, Mel Gibson, Hugh Jackman, Rachel Griffiths, Russell Crowe, Simon Baker, and Naomi Watts.
The two in the 100? Clarke and Bellamy, so strange when Eliza Taylor and Bob Morley speak in their native accents, if you are used to Clarke and Bellamy
Toni Collette is honestly one of the greatest actors of all time. I hope she wins an Oscar one day because I feel like she isn't recognised as much as she should be.
The Hemsworth bros have distinctly different accents because each have spent different time overseas. Liam has kept his roots whereas Chris has a harder time having had a lot more movie roles as an American accent . V . Liam has done different stuff and has taken on less work than his bro and just chilled with his parents in Aus
I'm Mexican and English is my second language. I don't have any problems understanding Australians speak English. The only difficulty I have is understanding Scouse (Liverpool's accent).
I was hoping to find the crocodile hunter in here 😊😊, may he Rest In Peace, as someone from the Levant, that’s the first thing that comes to mind when I think down under accent, even more than movies that one expects to be the first influence
After living on the goldie' gold coast QLD Australia for 3 years, I noticed that despite the size of Australia which is BIGGG, if come from WA, you wouldn't tell the difference in accents. the only thing different is how your call measurement for beer.
Hey Mia, I can hear your acquired American accent creeping in too. Gotta say though, you should get some examples of people talking in a group using some slang. It doesn't needs to be crass, just using Australian words that would normally confuse people.
I grew up in Canada and most non North American accents are hard for me to understand. And also most times I can't differ between British or Australian accent.
@@celianeher7637 I actually made a similar comment on another one of these videos. I'm not very pedantic, but it is kind of annoying. Also, for some reason at the time, I thought they were all ESL teachers.
I think the use of 'like' is much more nuanced than most people imagine it to be - I mean, it even has historical precedent in Shakespeare. I am also a linguistic pedant, but I don't begrudge people who use 'like' as a pausal or even metrical filler - language evolves, and most people rail against it for no other reason than its supposed newness or strangeness.
@@dadaflyte1353 Let me fix your comment for you. "Like, I think like, the use of like, 'like' is like, much more nuanced like, than most people like, imagine it like, to be.

@@Pharaoh_The_Great Actually, you might not be wrong here. I'm Australian and she has many hints of that accent taking over her general Australian accent.
1:45 There are almost a million Hellenes🇬🇷 in Australia. And those from mixed weddings, of Hellenic origin in general. I have a lot of friends and family in Australia and many of them sound like this😂😂😂 not all of them, some they have a different accent, more like stereotypical Aussie as we all know it😂 3:17 Ahhh this Goddess *Cate Blanchett* 💙💙💙
What I found Australian English is actually pretty Formal and Polite. The Accent is what everybody look at, but if you hear by sentence Aussies are actually formal and polite. Yes they make short sentences, but in general Polite. Unless you happen to be unlucky and meet an Aussie having a bad day that just want to be mean for a while.
I work with a bloke that has the super typical aussie accent more high pitch voice swears a lot uses the slang the type of guy to say " well we aren't here to fuck spider's "
A lot of people have been commenting in this series that the Aussie sounds like an American, but her accent doesn’t sound American to me. I would think her to be a foreigner if I met her on the street. Just me.
So like, like yeah like, like you totally wouldn't believe like, right like, like I'd say like you'd think like that like they'd add more words like like to the English language like yeah.
As a Canadian I have no trouble understanding Australian and Kiwi accents, but some Irish and British accents throw me right off, especially some Scottish accents, they're the hardest. It's probably because some rural Scottish communities were so isolated form the rest of the English speaking world for so long, up in the highlands and what not, they really diverged.
Welsh is also hard to understand, they speak WAY too fast. Scottish is fairly easy to pick for me. Irish, when you get really rural, that can be hard to understand, I couldn’t exactly say which part of the country they are from (Brits/Scots/Irish/Welsh,) but I will always know what country.
Their is a difference in Australian English where in Rural Areas they have a thick Vocabulary usually due to people not going to University. However in Cities around Australia you will find people that have gone to University their accent is as you said posh than you have the Multicultual Australians its English but Broken
i hear A Lot of the wog accent up here in western sydney cause of the arabs and italians which is awesome and the general Australian accent is of course all around sydney too. Idk what accent i got it’s mixed with arab accent into it but it ain’t wog
Phoebe Tonkin in The Secret Circle is the example I always use for an Australian actor struggling with an American accent. On that series, Tonkin sounds 55% American/45% Aussie.
As much as I'm familiar with English because I use it daily here, I was so confused when I first visited Melbourne (2019). I'd say more than half the time, my friend and I were just tryna guess what the other person was saying lol. But when we visited NZ (Auckland) the same year, it was a breeze. No guessing game at all.
I love this guy's accent 0:09, it's hilarious, is there a name for it? I'm getting a rural, folky, working-class sort of vibe from it. Sort of like the Aussie version of Cockney (I know Cockney is urban, but *shrugs*).
The 'Broad' Aussie Accent Steve Irwin (RIP mate) has kind of sounds like the equivalent of a Southern US accent, because it's so relaxed and 'rounded out' as Christina would say.
It's a broad Australian accent from a guy in the state of Queensland (the "Florida" of Australia). Whilst you can hear this kind of accent anywhere in Australia, it's typically associated with "lower/working class" people and "rural" Australians.
I have never seen a person/Australian use the Word " LIKE" so much!!! It is so bad to hear that!! It feels as if she didn't know how to speak her own language. Simply horrible!!!

The key area missed in this was the variants of accent from Western Australia and South Australia to Eastern Australia, vastly different accents.
And then us Melbournians saying "Mao-bn" and "Meuk" instead of "Melbourne" and "Milk"
