Dacre Montgomery & Geraldine Viswanathan Teach You Australian Slang | Vanity Fair
So rare to find another girl named Geraldine who is also aussie and desi
Thats so cool 😂
Wow
It's because she is half white (her mum is swiss)
She is a Tamil girl I think
Australia is one of the most multicultural countries on earth. We have thousands of Asians Indians Arabs Africans with Australian accents and personalities
It breaks my brain to find out that she's Australian. Her American accent is soooo good.
Lol a lot of Australian do good American accents it’s not a stretch for us :)
if only Americans could do good Aussie accents lmao
breaks your heart? why?
@@sarah_cate_art I said breaks my BRAIN, not my heart
SAME. And i make it my business to know if an actor is aussie, since i am one myself.
Ahhhh! I didn’t know they are both Aussies until seeing this. I just saw Broken Hearts. It was fantastic and so are these two. This made my morning!
Right?! It was SO cute, different and funny 💜✨
Yes, I totally agree. This video is definitely worth multiple views as well as the film.
Dacre 's eye lashes are freaking never ending
Dacre for Wolverine MCU
Geraldine is so pretty omg 🥺
Agreed
She sort of reminds me of Aubrey Plaza.
I know she's gorgeous
Geraldine's accent is very interesting to me. It's obviously Australian, but there are moments that sound very North American in certain vowels
Shes spent so much time learning how to and speaking with an American accent (albeit a nondescript one) that some of it has to stick with her.
P.S. She's so damned pretty.
She said she misses Australia so I guess she lives in the US? My cousin lives there and it only took him a couple years to start sounding a bit American
The movie was spectacular. Too many happy tears. Glad to see a woman of Indian descent play a lead role.
I mean.... everything sounds better in Dacre’s voice Glad😭🥵
Hooning is not just speeding. Going around a roundabout more than 7 times consecutively is an example of hooning.
And chucken a doughy or 2, dragging etc
i think its mostly just anything that negatively impacts the flow of traffic too
I am in love with Geraldine and have literally seen everything she’s been in and right now binge watching her interviews
i'm an aussie and INNIT is definitely british!!! specifically Londoner
I think the only reason that would have been included is because a lot of Americans cannot tell the difference between an Aussie and an English accent, I went to the USA once and I was asked if I was Australian but i don’t think i sound it at all I just have a very basic English accent (Like Tom Holland, or Naomi Scott). Overall I’d personally say “innit” is used pretty much everywhere but idk I’m pretty close to London.
Yeah, it’s also used in the Mancunian dialect, actually. It isn’t specifically Londoner at all. Even people in the countryside use ‘init’ or ‘innit’. I don’t think it’s just a city term.
@@thechosenone1989 Actually a lot of British sayings are said in Australia, due to the boom of immigration of Brits to Australia. Plus the close relationship between the two. New Zealand has a lot of the same slang terms too.
Lorna Watts I’m very aware of this like “mate” is originally English however it’s stereotyped to be Aussie
NOPE its a country thing! Born and raised about an hour outside of Melbourne and everyone i know says Innit
I'm so ready for The Broken Hearts Gallery to be released
Me too
Geraldine was brilliant and so funny in the movie 'Blockers' so it's awesome to see her doing new things. Aussies really are taking over the movie industry, haha!
they're both so hot wtf
They're successful actors! They wouldn't have the careers that they do if they weren't hot.
@@jeffblack8457 Rebel Wilson.
Dacre is so perfect I-
I absolutely loved the movie. Instantly entered my romcom hall of fame
I watched it twice in a row
Far out I just saw Geraldine in Bad Education with Hugh Jackman. Had no idea she was an Aussie too! She's mad pretty
i wanna see dacre and Jacob Elordi in a competition on who is the worst jock
This is the only content they know what to do with Aussie actors
No lie. I just heard a stand up comic tell story about being in Australia and every word in a conversation is abbreviated.
We defs do hahaha!
Probs.
Most def!
Ken oath.
Defs
literally in love with geraldine viswanathan
She is stunning! Beautiful young lady indeed
Dacre’s eyes and voice is sooooo 😍
I’m definitely going to use the term “Brekky” a lot more
I have a friend I made through Xbox who’s in Australia & I’m definitely going to say this tomorrow 😆
I don’t know how u survive without the word tbh
His eye lashes are so luscious haha
He's actually perfect
Geraldine; "You're ugly"
Dacre; :o
5:40
😂
You're ugly; Not Geraldine
the music in the background as dacre reacted had me ROLLING, the drama of it all 🤣🤣
dacre is so cute 🥺
the way dacre says his name is this is so cute for some reason-
Thongs: flip flops
Avo: Avocado
Sanga: sandwich
G’day: good morning/afternoon
Sizzle: Aussie hotdogs
And the list goes on
nah not sizzle, snags
this was a very 'Country Australian' slang list! everyone i know uses every single one of these words 😂
Is dacre wearing a velvet shirt???
He is 👌
re: cobber, cobbs is a term of endearment for a mate
Never thought I'd see a Vanity Fair interview where Puberty Blues gets a mention. Ya mole!
His voice is amazing
He looks like he could play Johnny Storm in the Fantastic Four reboot in the MCU
Tucker can also mean exhausted in the context of 'I'm all tuckered out'
They're so beautiful♥️
Hes so cute in this!!!😭😭😭😭💗💖💗💗💖💗
I actually thought of the old movie Puberty Blues. Not because they use the word 'mole' quite frequently in that movie. Btw, what a "great" way of treating girls. However, that is one of the thems of the movie; how girls are being treated and compared to boys. The movie is SO good! I'm so glad that my parents had accidently recorded that movie and I got to watch it as a kid. Even though it was rather old movie when I was a kid, I really liked the storyline and also the Australian slang. I also remember that one of the characters shouts "Beauty" (or something with the word 'beauty') when the lead actress does something really amazing. I didn't quite understand the full meaning of the expression before and now I know what it means thanks to Dacre and Geraldine.
Cricket fans would know ‘Bloody rippah’ and ‘you beauty’ 😂
Hahaha exactly.
It’s so cool to finally see someone who’s Australian getting really famous
"Hoon laws" apply to very specific kinds of anti-social driving. Including doing burnouts, drifting, doughnuts etc. Not really speeding, but doing stuff with your car that could potentially hurt an innocent bystander, or makes a lot of noise and smoke. For instance, the US practice of "rolling coal" would probably qualify as a hoon violation in some parts of Australia.
Just watched this a few hours ago, officially my favorite movie
feel like they left out some goldies:
- togs (swimmers)
- deadset (bang on, definitely, spot on)
- snags (bunnings sausage on bread heh)
- rollies (ciggies but not taylors)
- woolies/safeway (woolworths - an australian supermarket)
Jeri Brown that's what they said? No one said Woolworths is Australian, but the slang for it is
You're a Beauty of a human Dacre ❤
Bloody ripper makes me think of Klaus (writing this before they explain the definition lol)
Stefan enters my brain
i love them both so much!
Her American accent on Blockers was so good!!!!
Watching the broken Hearts gallery and never knew both were Australian
Here for Dacre.
Shut up I didn’t know they were Australian- their American accent are honestly on point I thought they were both American when seeing them in broken hearts gallery wow you learn something new everyday
i watched the broken hearts gallery last night and I loved it and now I'm on my dacre/geraldine rabbit hole
THEY ARE BOTH AUSTRALIANS AND DO PERFECT ENGLISH. OMG OKAYYY
I use so many of these on such a regular basis. I didn’t realise they were actually just things Aussies said...
Love how they got slightly put off by the word crikey. Like please... don’t make us say it. We know the hunter guy is the only Australian person Americans know. We get asked this on the daily.
steve irwin was not a hunter bahaha
Fun fact: crikey is an abbreviation of the phrase 'christ kill me'
Sevira Asynjur oh yeah I’m sorry his tv was called the crocodile best friend show
Mary Tokeidai should have been, frankly
Crocodile Dundee!
This is film I didn’t know I needed
She’s gorgeous 🖤😍
He is just so beautiful, I was excited when I found out he was an Aussie
It’s so crazy how similar British phrases are to Australian
Not really crazy considering Australia was colonised (invaded) by the English
Abbey Griffin 🙃
That’s colonising for you
True, the British empire was very influential.
Many of them are obviously originally British, but a lot of Brits were also encouraged to move Oz in the 60s, which is probably why there is such commonality with the language and slang to this day. Particularly when compared with US, who actively worked to differentiate the linguistic rules by creating American English.
Geraldine is just so pretty 😍
love them both so much
His eyelashesss thooooo
she's soooooooo gorgeous wow 🥺💜
Hoon - someone who is a trouble maker in their car, drifting, speeding, loud music excess can be given the "hoon charge"
Rubbers - aka frangers aka CONDOMS - Also can be used in place of eraser
cobber - Mate, true blue aussie
galah - means he acts crazy - "he is a galah"
See I always thought rubber used as slang for condoms was an American thing.....
This guy is dreamy 😍
People in the south west of the US use Reckon a lot lol "I reckon it'll only take a few more minutes ya'll"
I can't believe Billy Hargroves is Australian!
Funny thing is that in South Africa we use the term rubber for an eraser as well, especially he coloreds. Having attended a mostly colored school/multi-racial school, I only knew it was actually called n eraser when I got to University lol.
Why Australian eyes are this much beautiful 🌚💔
wow i had no idea she was australian. i remember seeing her in blockers and i just saw the broken hearts gallery.
They were annoyed by Crikey 😂
I’m Australian and I don’t know some of this. Feel so out of touch.
My eldest son looks so similar to Dacre- it's so weird!! And we are Aussies too 🤯
son reveal
I feel like alot of these are used in Canada as well... At least where I grew up
Yeah mate. Canada 🇨🇦, NZ🇳🇿, Australia 🇦🇺 and UK 🇬🇧 are the best for sure
Every Australian actor ever
Media: tEaCh Us ThE sLaNg
alot of these are actually british slang.. but if you know your history it makes sense why they're used in australia
We say “TA” a lot in the UK for thanks
You tend to hear Cheers a lot instead of Ta in British TV. Cheers is the equivalent of Slainte or Skol for mine.
Dacre has beautiful eyes😍😍
Geraldine is the australian Katy Perry LOL
Geraldine is the pretties omg!
We need a MARGOT ROBBIE and DACRE MONTGOMERY collaboration
Geraldine❣️
Aussies are really beautiful man!!😍🥰
As an Irish person we use 'beauty' in the same way, and we sometimes say biccies as well.
Billiy Mesk ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Geraldine.... she's 150% greater. wowza
As an Aussie vanity fair has made me realise were fairly bad at explaining slang. We use other slang to teach slang 😂😬
ITS BILLY
Oh Geraldine u beauty♥️💚
I love that crack she made earlier in the film! LMAO!🤣
"They're not just for looking at, they're for use, they're like plungers."
She has gorgeous feet by the way!😍
Hooning as far as I’m aware is just driving recklessly
How can you guys not know what hooning is ? You both got it wrong though the guy sort of touched on the right definition.
Hey guys. Cobber means your mate. As in "Hey Cobber, how are ya."
If they were playing a game called So You Think You're Australian, Dacre wins by a mile.
Also, Dacre looks like a Zac Efron down under waiting to happen.
We have heard those slangs a lot due to cricket
I ❤️ this girl.......WOMAN
Dog’s breakfast means a mess or the result of doing something that creates a mess. “You’ve turned that job into a dog’s breakfast!”
I use brekkie (not often. but I still use it), and I grew up in Canada, is this not a British slang that made it's way into our lexicon?
Their american accent is insanely good
I Reckon... We say that down under in Alabama mate!
