Was helpful👌
I could add the expression: “ It’s on the tip of my tongue.
what does it mean ?
To hell if I know and only God knows mean I don't know as well they mean same thing I've heard them get used in situations where the words i don't know would be said but yet again these could only be ways a teen says I don't know or whatever I also have never heard the words in this order god only knows I've always heard it as only God knows the answer
Hi, I'm from Jakarta Indonesia. I grew up watching Australian series. I love Australian accent. absolutely not easy , but pleasant to hear
I just arrived at my dormitory in Australia but can’t make head or tail of native Aussie speaks!!!!!
Goodness only knows when I ca n improve my listening skills
Thank you for sharing and all of video on this channel are important for me especially as an immigrant who live here for almost 7 years and now I am Australian Citizen...yeayy😍 And I am still learning how to improve my English. Keep it up!!!
I love this music intro part!
It's really funny how we use some of those expressions in Brazil. We have "Have no idea", "Don't ask me", "God only knows", "Good question" and "How Should I know", just translated!
How should I know those expressions could be so similar to the ones in Portuguese?
Thanks mate it's helpin' me to speak fluently with my mates.
My pleasure, mate!
I had no clue about how amazing you are, you were incredibly awesome while explaining especially the hints that you used to explain the curse and casual words and expressions, so thanks a million to you and all your efforts that you put in this video
thanks mate!, useful & simple
This course is really helpful! God only knows what a good teacher you are.
We use most of these in Swedish as well. Fun story about the “it’s all Greek to me” one. When working at my mum’s work for a summer I actually was handed the task of translating a production manual from Swedish to Greek ( I don’t know the first thing about Greek) So I said to my friends. “My work is all Greek to me, literally”😅
I knew just one the expressions. All new to me. Great job Pete 🙏🙏👍👍👍
I don’t think it is “better” because educated and other people still use “ I don’t know” in their everyday conversations. In many other languages, there is one or two ways of expressing one thought but in English there are many ways depending on the context including the setting, variation, culture, education, and whatnot. For a native speaker, it is easier to choose or manoeuvre the vocabulary. Bear in mind, words and tones do elicit different emotions as in many other languages.
Choose wisely your active vocabulary as it can have an impact either positive or negative on you. :)
Thank u mate I'm learning
Thank you so much!
I always wondering about how to say "i don't know" in polite way
(I)can't hepl you there
Thanks Peter
After reading the report for 2 hours, I still couldn't make heads or tails of it.
In order not to admit it beats me, I stayed up last night to look for more information.
:)
I'm going to recommend this to all my IELTS students, it would work for parts 1 and 3 of the Speaking section, but I don't have the foggiest how to string them together enough for the long answer question in section 2.

@@AussieEnglishPodcast Taiwan. Like the way you teach! Thanks for the great lesson.
Halo sir, to be honest i am working at hotel but sometimes i don't understand and i can not heared clearly when Speak with Native Speakers with British Accent 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭, Help Me!
Luckily I found this video! My partner is from Melbourne and he likes asking me millions of questions every day! Now I have 20 different 'I don't know' can deal with him ^_^
I wish you could explain in each expression, when it is "rude" or too slang, or when it is posh. It happened to me to lean Brazilian portuguese in the streets when I was a teenager, and I learned a very popular or uneducated portuguese. As you understand portuguese , I learned to speak in a very CAFONA way ( ask your wife what it is). And when I grew up, it was very weird to listen a "distinguished doctor", using slang words with my brazilian colleagues. They laughed a lot, and I didn´t realized that I was speaking in an inaprpropiate language with them. Then, would you please...??? Thank´s a lot.
the clueless one is the best
"It's all Greek to me", I loved this one
Its great!
Thank you man!
Aussie English No, Im living in Kurdistan- Iraq
Good job buddy
I arrived in australia only a few days ago realizing that I can't understand aussie english at all. Now I was looking for some help and have found your vids and I am so happy about it! You seem to be such a nice and pleasant guy and I will watch every single obe of your videos 😍
Native Australian English speaker here. One that I thought of while listening to this video (that my family and friends use a LOT) is “to not know [someone or something] from a bar of soap.”. For the English learners, this is especially used when talking about what someone or something looks like (it may also have other uses of which I am unaware). For example, if someone asked “do you know what my house looks like?” and I didn’t know, I could say “I wouldn’t know it from a bar of soap”
Aussie English Queensland 🙂 a lot of old country sayings that may be close to extinction in other parts of Australia are alive and well here 😂
Aussie English I always think of Australian English as like Québécois French 😂 and no not an English teacher but, as I have started studying French more deeply and encountering expressions (like « je parle anglais comme un vache espagnol » 😂) I have become more interested in the dialects of various languages and the peculiarities of Australian English in particular. Cool videos, keep ‘em up man 🙂
70% already known.
Thanks for letting me know about the 30%
See you soon
thank you teacher

Thanks a lot! It was really helpful. Could you please let me know which one is correct? also, the subtitle is not following what you are saying. " I cannot make heads or tails of what this thing is" or "Not make heads of tails" I am a little bit confused.
Heads OR tails
Hahahahaha, the deer joke is great!😹😹😹
@@AussieEnglishPodcast yup.:) I preferred full immersion in the lesson.:)
@@AussieEnglishPodcast snakes in the toilet?😹😹😹
Crocs on yard?
Spiders in the bed?
05:45 I can't imagine a Greek person saying that 😅
yuh but you can replace greek by an another word like "It's all Chinese to me !" yk.
I make a note of 24 words and iam keep searching for next 3 words. But, i couldn't find anywhere. can u please say it for me. Thanks.
How should I know
You da man! Love your videos mate
Nice bro 😊
Good quastion, can't say i got a answer
How should I know :)
Please teach us Aussie accent! Your know & no are kinda different from American accent.
It’s a hard one to explain. It’s kinda like the word know would be spelled knou instead. It’s almost, not quite, but almost like the American pronunciation of the word “boy” but you but an “n” before, so “noy” It’s really difficult to explain. Keep exploring and moving your mouth differently each time, you’ll get there. Practice makes perfect. Late answer sorry hope you’ve already mastered that Aussie accent mate!
Iam in Somalia
Where I contact for you mate
As an Aussie myself, saying "you mob" sounds weird unless you actually are aboriginal/Torres Strait Island yourself.
nice
Damn this is a f*cking nice content
I can't wait
I always liked the Aussie accent, it reminds me in so many ways of "Southern" American Colloquialism. We would say these sentences much the same way. So similar the two are, You could even point out how in the deep southern dialects you might hear an "N" put at the end of a word just like the inserted "R" at the end of Australian words to make it flow betta? (see we shorten the same words-lol) like....."If'n you reckon?"
GREAT content mate, keep on keepin' on.
Where r u from?
It beats me, mate!
Hi is there a pdf..?
