  • you really aren't doing that badly!

    You know though we have alot of accents. Northern, Southern, Western, Mid America, Mid Western, and Hoosier<-[that would be mine]

    I think you did well. :3

    You know, I'm trying to learn the Australian accent right now. I want to become a voice actor and I find that learning accents make it alot easier.

    Enough rambling. Good job!

  • lol hope it goes well for you !! ive herd that the australian accent is quiet difficult to pick up !! a good way to get the australian accent almost perfect when saying "g´day mate" try saying "good eye mite" and that should get you going lol :P

  • So in Australia can you guys spot out an American from a mile away if you heard them talking? [Not that anyone can hear someone talking from a mile away or anything but... I hope you get what I'm saying. XD]

  • hey,

    yeah, Americans are spotted from a mile away ! its generally because Americans tend to be really loud people. just naturally loud, and there strong accents along with it, doesnt help :D its not just Australians that spot you out, its everyone

  • haha this is amazing.

    I find it so funny how you have a hard time speaking the way I do like all the time.

    I'm from canada, I was wondering if you think we have a different accent than americans? (:

  • HA! i know what u want to hear :P,I can tell the difference most the time but only because my sister-in-law is Canadian,but 99% of the populations assumes that Canadians are Americans just basted on their accent,and normally the 1st question asked is:"where abouts in America are you from"lol ive insulted a few Canadians in my time with that question:D

    im normally alot better when reading things with an American accent,but as soon as the camera starts filming,it goes all down hill from there:P

  • Hey =D

    Seeing as your from Australia you will know what im talking about lol.

    You look like chris lilley from summer heights high.

    =D

  • nice try mate, I have an Aussie accent too but I've been in the US since I was a little boy, so my accent is a mix between Australian and American, it's hard for me to revert back to the Aussie accent to which I love. Good try though, American is hard though. So many different ways of talking, Hawaiian, California, Texan, Deep south, New York, Boston... many different American accents...

see all

  • That wasn't really that bad! American accents are sooo hard to do, I'll give you that. Unless you were born with it, good luck trying! Lol

  • Doesn't help when you got a poof Aussie accent from the start.

  • sorry... but Not Even Close !!

  • awwww that was so cute. Good luck learning to speak american accent, you were doing fine except for the pauses. Just a tip, you need to curve your tongue a bit more for you to get that American 'r' like in em-BARK, and not em-BAHK . God bless!

  • haha this is a rather entertaining video.

    not bad!

  • @Bristy Americans tend to pronounce every letter,so car would be pronounced "c/k-arrr" while Australians would say it as "c/k-ahr"(lighter).

    Think of it as being lazy with your words.

    Hope this helps.

  • @turtalfishpaul

    mile=kilometer

    kilometer=kilometre

  • You look like that guy in Summer Heights High.

  • @Bristy
