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.
Omg like I couldn't even get through like half of this video like I don't think I'd like be able to get past 2 minutes if I had to take like a drink like every like. Plus, they would be the longest 2 minutes ever. I'd have to stop the video to take the drinks so we didn't miss any. So yeah, sounds like a great drinking game 😂
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.
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
I'm not sure about this. Did Hemsy attend NIDA? And Ben's way of speaking isn't enunciated? Depending on what roll he's playing, but even in Idiot Box, I heard the poem quite clearly. Put it this way, in the same year at NIDA (1977, the year I was born) we had the likes of Mel Gibson and Judy Davis (tick)... and Steve Bisley. Are you saying Goose sounds like a NIDA trained actor?
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
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.

That's fantastic. I also got identified as south African or Dutch and also I have a south Australian accent brought up in Peterborough Minnipa Leigh Creek Ardrossan
Really interesting video 😊 I was raised in northern NSW, very close to the QLD border, and you hear a lot of different accents due to the movement of people to the area from other parts of the country. Although, with "different accents" the differences can be very slight. I've lived in the NT for the past 10 years, and I would love to hear the NT accent and Indigenous accent.

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.
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.
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).
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
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.
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’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
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 would say that Steve has a broad northen accent while Chris has a broad Southern accent. This is the first of your videos ive watched but i can tell Mia is from Victoria purely from the way she says no. 😂
Cheers for acknowledging the regional variation- so many people focus only on class or sometimes ethnic accent differences but regions do actually differ in Aus, just not as much as countries with a longer history of spoken English
@@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* 💙💙💙
I think it’s all based on who you’re surrounded by. I remember someone telling me about what they called the “generic wog accent” pointing out the ethnic backgrounds all differed, the parents have different accents yet somehow their offspring born in Australia go from a standard accent in childhood to all having the “wog accent”. My Hungarian relatives and my Italian and French friends always told their friends off for doing it. Moving to the country was an eye opener as far as accents and attitudes go, I can barely understand some people with the heavy accent 😂
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 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.
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
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.
That wog accent is Lebanese wog. Italians amd Greeks sound very different. As with Macedonian, Serbian etc. The Aussie girl in this has a very particular accent used by mostly gay guys and influencer types. It's a the Aussie valley girl accent. It's very put on. They work at it as opposed to raw Aussie accents from country type accents like Steve Irwins. Similar to the bogan type accent.
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.
When I think of Australian actors doing an American accent and having it slip, I always recall Mel Gibson in the original "Lethal Weapon". By the time he did the sequel, he had it under control. Now a days Mel has used a North American accent, even away from productions, in his everyday life, that he only is heard slipping when extremely intoxicated.
As someone who is getting certified to teach English, I couldn’t care less if she says “like” a lot, she explained the accents very well. You all need to leave her alone. It’s literally just a filler word in place of “uh/um/er/erm”. It’s not that big of a deal. She’s not in a job interview or presenting a business speech in front of 1000s of people. Even I don’t speak formally in an informal setting. I speak in my natural “ghetto” American accent.
I've even noticed politicians and pulic officials use 'like'. If anything, the frequent use of 'like' as a pausal filler shows the person to be a (deeply) thinking subject.
@@dadaflyte1353 yeah, especially as the boomer generation dies out & younger generations especially Gen X, millennials, & Gen Z…& generations after that. It’ll just be an accepted form of filler with anyone from the uneducated to genius level. I also see people in the future being more casual with clothing, piercings, tattoos, & hair dying in the professional/business white collar office jobs
@@Dhi_Bee Yea people are too hung up on the word 'like', they missed all the interesting things she had to say. I liked her in this video and all her previous ones with WF.
None of these are as difficult as when i go back to me home town which isn't even that many hours from Melbourne Let alone the people you hear in pubs in the outback
I'd love to see Spanish and Australian in the same video. I think those are two countries that are so far away from each other so it would be interesting for Spaniards to try the Australian accent / slang and for the Australians to try and speak Spanish
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.
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
The Wog accent must be dying out or less common at least, with reduced European immigration, the current generation having Australia-born parents, or even Grandparents, and Australian society having become generally more monolingual by necessity. The more proper sound of the "cultivated" accent is a clear indictor of a Sydney-sider. It forces me to make the same expression Mia had on her face when hearing it. But there's a couple of words they have a weird pronunciation for and in spewin' I cannot remember them. Lol. I reckon if Chris Hemsworth was casually chatting to another Australian, he'd be talkin' a bit faster than he does during interviews. He must've had speech training at some point in his career. I think a higher average speed is inherent in the general Australian accent. Or a tendency to string certain words together. The odd word arbitrarily rollin'into another in a way that a bystander might lose track. I dunno. I'm not sure about that clip being an accurate soundbite for the general accent.
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 "
@@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.

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"
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.

It’s literally just a filler word in place of “uh/um/er/erm”. It’s not that big of a deal. She’s not in a job interview or presenting a business speech in front of 1000s of people. Even I don’t speak formally in an informal setting. I speak in my natural “ghetto” American accent.
I've even noticed politicians and pulic officials use 'like'. If anything, the frequent use of 'like' as a pausal filler shows the person to be a (deeply) thinking subject.
She's actually quite articulate, hope to see more of her.
@@karllogan8809 yeah, I agree. I hope she doesn’t read the comment section & comes back on a future episode
@@dadaflyte1353 yeah, especially as the boomer generation dies out & younger generations especially Gen X, millennials, & Gen Z…& generations after that. It’ll just be an accepted form of filler with anyone from the uneducated to genius level. I also see people in the future being more casual with clothing, piercings, tattoos, & hair dying in the professional/business white collar office jobs
@@Dhi_Bee Yea people are too hung up on the word 'like', they missed all the interesting things she had to say.
I liked her in this video and all her previous ones with WF.
8:57 and yet she says the R as in rhotic accents sometimes, including here in the 'our' )))
None of these are as difficult as when i go back to me home town which isn't even that many hours from Melbourne
Let alone the people you hear in pubs in the outback
I'd love to see Spanish and Australian in the same video. I think those are two countries that are so far away from each other so it would be interesting for Spaniards to try the Australian accent / slang and for the Australians to try and speak Spanish
Thank you for doing the wog accent haha though I think of it more as the Western Sydney accent
It‘s almost like there‘s a reason for that… 😂
Was waiting for the noongah accebt 😂
The fact that I understood every word that man said for no reason, maybe it was bc I watch Pearlescentmoon?
The posh accent wasn’t because the lady was more well off she must have just been British Aussie
Like like like like like
Straight off the bat the 'wog' accent. Pretty sure we're not allowed to call it that. Like western Sydney/western Melbourne accent
What
Tbh the Superwog accent sounds more like a Leb accent to my ear
yeah tbh its just a western sydney accent which has a large arabic population
superwog is brilliant.
I really "like" how to editor even added all her filler "like"s into the subtitles.
same here.
Like, like, like. How many times can they say "like"?
Uff :(, the "like" problem
Take like a sip whenever like the Australian like used like a ‘like’!
😃😃😃
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.
I knew I heard superwog
It's not generally the accent that's difficult to understand. It's the slang
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
good
The Wog accent must be dying out or less common at least, with reduced European immigration, the current generation having Australia-born parents, or even Grandparents, and Australian society having become generally more monolingual by necessity.
The more proper sound of the "cultivated" accent is a clear indictor of a Sydney-sider. It forces me to make the same expression Mia had on her face when hearing it. But there's a couple of words they have a weird pronunciation for and in spewin' I cannot remember them. Lol.
I reckon if Chris Hemsworth was casually chatting to another Australian, he'd be talkin' a bit faster than he does during interviews. He must've had speech training at some point in his career.
I think a higher average speed is inherent in the general Australian accent. Or a tendency to string certain words together. The odd word arbitrarily rollin'into another in a way that a bystander might lose track.
I dunno. I'm not sure about that clip being an accurate soundbite for the general accent.
Like, kinda like, she likes to say like “like”, like, a lot. That’s quite Aussie.
Y’all really need to try the arabic accent
I usually have the general accent, but it slips into broad if I'm passionate or angry, or just making fun of something
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 "
Mia's accent is cattywampus 😮
Do the girls get payed more every time they say "like" ?
Oh my goodness, thank the very few who can actually express themselves without the over use of the word ' like '.
@@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 This time Mia was too much for me.
@@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.

I'm more comfortable with Western Syd eng, the queensland type i will never get the hang of it
