[sithous]

[MurgusFlugnoober]

Thanks! I've got a copy of "Ty the Tasmanian Tiger," and he says "Struth!" and "Fair dinkum" a lot. Now I know.

You're cute, and funny. Brilliant combination!

[yasashii89]

Aussies are cool!

[crematedmemoir]

struth! you're a fair dinkum ripper mate! We ought to celebrate! I'll round a shmiddy in!

that good enough for a thumbs up mate?

[RayRayClawTroller]

Are you a jedi? ...is that why you have a braid on the side? :O

[kanata0717]

[HRT95]

[sonicboomify]

How the hell does someone have trouble working out what g'day means?

[dancetellerheartstop]

cody simpson has one of the hotties aussies accents... EVER!!!!!

[wadehawke]

Last thing we want are a bunch of Yankee actors trying ta talk like Steve Irwin, never send a Yank to an oz accent is what we learn, cheers for the video mate-It's a bloody bummer that me phone gives me the shits now an then

[smileydaughter]

How to be australian - get a ratty

[DanielGuidettiPED]

@smileydaughter Not really you ignorant moron. I'm australian, and I don't have a ratty, neither do my friends. Clue up

[Ozrosalie997]

@13579shortstuff you make me proud to be Aussie. Truest speech ever:)

[roberaith]

Gooday, mate, let's get juice. Or weed

[Quimquat]

to your questions: no, no, sometimes, no

[orcaholic345]

If this guy did a definition/explanation of himself the aussie term would be 'bogan'...

[Quailtooben]

oh my fucking god is that a rat tail

[QUINTUSMAXIMUS]

He sounds like a regular Australian to me. People keep on saying so and so bogan, but he's a regular guy.

[tylahthomson]

gday bud , im an aussie. Good to see ya go for the cats ! Good on ya !

[0s0e0a0n0100]

ATTENTION* this guy has a ratty. in australia he is a bogan or a feral ratty fag

[IIproductionsII]

Attention: Nobody attempt to sound like this guy, this is the dumbass redneck accent that some Australians have.

[jaydogla]

what does it mean when aussies say "too easy"

[246buthead]

@jaydogla Similar to the phrases "Piece of cake" or "Like taking candy from a baby". :)

[cec12oz]

Ignore these other deros knackers, they are carryin on like a little girls blouse and have not yet learnt to embrace the Aussie within. Your slang to me and all the other Aussie sheilas and blokes from the bush is standard lingo not slang. To everyone who reckons this is not our way of chin waggin, stop pissin about like a blue arsed fly and get the fark out of the sticks. Righteeo thats all from me, im gunna bugger off now and grab a coldie cos i am as dry as a dead dingoes donger. Hooroo mate!

[Jennivision]

This guy has a pretty bogan (redneck) australian accent... sorrryyy... but true. I'm australian and I dont use any of that slang.

[interrobangg2]

@Jennivision It's mostly inland blokes that do.

[AudeeMonster]

Sweet rat tail.

[13579shortstuff]

@AussiesMakeMePuke.Hating on us will get you no where. You must like us secretly if you search us and waste your time making us part of your youtube name and hating on our videos. Rack off mate, Aussie's dislike haters. we all stand up for each other and are proud of where we come from. Not our fault if you have a bloody problem.

To the people that say we're not sexy. You probably have the looks of a tree stump.

[hellorawrianna]

do australians say "the dingo lady" or "sheila"? just wonderin...

[kirkcaldyfarm]

@hellorawrianna Nah we don't. The Dingo Lady isn't part of Australian slang and sheila is just another stereotyped slang word.

[Kew1dude]

piece of poop!!! U SUCK!!

[jareid2507]

you're an embarrassment to all australians.

[mhyrz0727]

@numanumaturleyeah: aussies are good looking and sexy mate ... better check yourself in the mirror... lmao

[jaredmilzy]

@AussiesMakeMePuke mate we would kill you lot

[stylemonkey17]

[hodgie132]

@RainandWillow The hand motion isn't necessarily required; however it is generally the social convention. ;)

[DarkWolfen]

How pissed were you when you did this video?

[StoneandHoodie]

Don't they call picks a duck in australia? I think I heard something like that in a guitar instruction video.

[tysontom1]

[ChrissyLuffsYooh]

Oi, look! I got some chokkies for my Chrissy prezzie!

[ChrissyLuffsYooh]

"Make I inquire about your welfare?" Lmfao.

Lol "Your presence is no longer acquired." What a nice version. XD

[Sturte91]

The awkward moment when most Australian's don't talk like this...

[roberaith]

Oi, are you a banana bender?

[roberaith]

Rack off equals shut da fuck up

[TheHashBot]

[g2lm4l]

[breanna5544]

[aussiepride961]

[tcsfan123]

WHAT EVERY MATE YOUR A HOON

[sukebegaijin1]

Why does it sound BEAR more than BE EEER?

[dancetillurdead]

Myzombietube fuck you. You are being racist by saying Australians are, you think were lazy, your just a piece of shit who has never been to Australia, you think we are all just bogan westies who drive around in utes drinking beer, eat noting but vegemite and ride to school on kangaroos, you think we just sit a home watching footy and live in the outback. Thank you to all the Americans that aren't judgmental about us. And I know there is a majority of you who don't make judgements, America is a

[DrBieberFever96]

I am australian:) it is so funny how many times I have said something to my American friend and she says what the he'll r u going on about it is really funny:)

[patthedogdownunder]

Be careful using Aussie slang because you sound like a right cock head if its used in the wrong context. Its not just using the words, its a whole other language called Strine. You cant learn it, you have to grow up with it. Dumb slang words like the ones you use are used in the big smoke for tourists and not by real Aussies. Real Strine is mostly used by cockies in the outback. City folk use tourist slang.

[sukebegaijin1]

@patthedogdownunder Yeah absolutley. Last time i met few Aussies at a bar in Japan and i greeted them saying "GOODDAY Mate" and they were like WTF???? And they told me that only Aborginies speaks the way i did. I was surprised how Aussies dont like their own lang. Are you guys ashamed of how you sound???? i really need to know this.



[leptoceratops]

@sukebegaijin1 Because only Australians can get the slang right. Other people base what Australian slang is and sounds like on annoying stereotypes and they sound like a right cock head.

[patthedogdownunder]

@sukebegaijin1 Most slang u would hear in Japan would be tourist slang or Hollywood bullshit. We tend to say 'ow ya doin' more than G'day. All ppl are mate or matey, You can be an old mate, a young mate or lil mate or cob, cobber, digger or bloke, champ, bud or blue, Depends who your talking to. Its complex but not to us. You prob have similar colloquialisms. We do love the way we sound because we dont have an accent. Watch The Castle, The Dish or Kenny. I bet u wont get it. Its very Australian.

[sukebegaijin1]

@patthedogdownunder Thanx for the clarification.

[CaReFrEe01]

lol very cute!

[Johannady]

My Bitzers are rooted.

A mad as a cut snake rellie says she's gonna kill'm!! D: I'm gonna Shoot through early in the morning to bring them to safe place to stay in. It's a back of Bourke, i guess about a click away, in a kind battler's home. He's not a Dero but he definitely doesn't have a brass razoo. I'll prepare a tucker-bag for them then go on foot because i haven't got zack. Do you think they'll be any bushrangers on the way? I'm deadset worried I'm coming a gutser.

[demichapmanbro]

[Svegi53689312]

your "mate" still sounds like an Ausie in spite of your efforts to emulate the western accent. Nice try buddy or whatever you say eh? (canadian) "com-on over here get yerself a CDN accent. I dknow if yer gunna handle the cold with her jaw chattin to b- jesus, but throw on a pair of long johns and a touque and we'll take you sleddin. Oh by the way, we drop our "g" at the end of words

Huntin, fishin, shootin, pissin, screwin etc etc.
