ellen3131 You wouldn't like it if you had one. It sounds absolutely awful, especially when aussies say "aw yeah". Sounds absolutely dreadful with an aussie accent
Eh, it depends on what kind of Aussie accent. There are many different kinds. I quite like Cultivated Australian English (e.g. Cate Blanchett, Geoffrey Rush), although my accent is more General (e.g. Chris Hemsworth, Hugh Jackman etc.). Not a fan of the Broad Ocker/Bogan accent (e.g. Pauline Hanson, Jacqui Lambie etc.). (-_-) South Australian English is rather interesting too, not just for the accent but also their variant lexicon. :) e.g. what we in NSW call a playground is called a 'schoolyard' in SA.
I never quite got that as a kid because my mum's side of the family (the side I knew the most for a long time) didn't really bastardize names (they're a fairly European bunch, actually). However, when I met my father's side of the family for the first time, I was weirded out by how they shortened each other's names. Tones instead of Tony, Cazza instead of Caroline, Mandie instead of Amanda... Although my mum's brother would call his wife Ned often instead of Nerida.
Phoebe Carter not all Stephens get called Stevo my ex is a Stephen he got Steve off my parents me and his friends and family and his grandfather called him stevie , as for Damian's that's not true either that's my cousins name we call him damie or similiar but I'll agree with the rest !
When he started speaking in that Dutch accent I lost. my. shit. laughing!! I'm from the Netherlands, so it was extremely funny to me because we actually sound like that.
The Australian accent is fine until you put it next to another accent and then it sticks out like dogs balls, don't believe me? watch Rachael Taylor's performance in Transformers, it's like nails on a chalk board. Again, you can get away with it when it can be camouflaged with other Aussie accents but not when its by itself.
I spent half the movie wondering what was going on with her before I realised I was listening to an Aussie accent. I am so used to hearing American and British accents in movies that I don't expect my own and it stands out as odd.
Bob Thenob but there's as many different Australian accents as there are english or the 75 there are in Ireland and yes I'm including Northern Ireland in that Scotland has around a good forty or so once you take the lowlands , highlands , Hebrides , Orkney and Shetland isles and the 7 main cities as well and Wales it varies too between Northern and southern Wales and England has heaps too in fact no single nation on earth has only one generic or standard accent . Mine is completely different to my mothers and aunts and uncle on that side and that's purely down to me being city born and bred and her growing up in rural New South Wales and that's true of all six states and the territories and also demographic educational background and even what your heritage is as well !
He's truly an Aussie legend. I love when he pokes fun at sign language translators. Free smiles for everyone (I laughed my self sick). Brutal treatment. :) "Good on ya."
To all Australians: Don't let Adam make you more insecure than you already are! Your accent is perfection. As a Brit I did love the line "In a rare display of optimism"- yup, that's us, glass half empty and never get our hopes up.
I totally agree with Adam, we do have one of the most annoying accents on the planet. The rising inflection for me the equivalent of fingernails on a blackboard.
@@brontewcat haha same! I love being strayan but god what we do with our inflection annoys me so much it’s god awful that it’s grating to my ears even though it’s my own voice so you’d think I’d be used to it by now or at least stop doing it. Nope?!
@@brontewcat You say that, but I'm from the UK, and the Aussie accent is by far the most imitated accent around here. People tend to just like doing it for fun. In fact, I myself love doing it so much that it's basically become second nature to me, to the point that I have successfully fooled several Aussies into thinking I was one of their own. What's funnier is that when I switched back to my original accent (which is a mix of British, American, Russian - my native language - and yes, Australian - that mf snuck in there too and therefore sounds a bit unusual), one of them even accused me of fvскing with him and wouldn't believe me that I wasn't Australian until I showed him proof😂 Contrary to what you say, the Australian accent is very smooth-flowing due the great extent of its vowel gliding - perhaps the greatest out of all the English accents - which by extension makes it very contagious. And of course there is the cultural stereotype of a "bonkers/crude Bogan", which cranks up the "fun" aspect of the accent even higher up. All in all, you're very wrong. Far from being annoying, it's actually perceived as fun and satisfying overseas.
@@maxkho00 Which accent are you doing? Cultured, middle or broad? The broad Australian accent is the stereotypical one, but most Australians do not have that accent. However do you imitate the rising inflection? You may like it, but there are two accents of English speakers that I dislike - the broad Australian and the broad accent from the Southern US. I think they are both very annoying. Fortunately, as most Australians do not use it, but many young Australians women do end sentences on a rising infection when they are not asking a question. It really grates.
@@brontewcat The General Australian one - i.e. the one with which most people speak. A lot of people think that it's just a "toned down" version of the broad accent, but it's actually the most distinct Australian accent there is; broad Australian can be phonetically described as a mix between General Australian and Cockney, while General Australian is its own thing (obviously, it's similar to the New Zealand accent by proximity, and has similarities with the South African accent, but every accent has similarities with other accents). Yeah, I do imitate the rising inflection as well, but I don't overdo it. Anyway, it never really bothered me; it's just an intonation. In the UK, we often use a falling inflection when asking a question (e.g. do you have anything?), and I don't think anybody has a problem with that.
I grew up social circles that spoke in the British RP accent or americanised english, and the regular Australian accent is very jarring whenever I hear it. Honestly I prefer the British accent, sounds more mellow.
My mum has an RP accent and i have a semi Australian one, I actually like both accents but when people from the east coast end statements like they are questions it really annoys me.
I love Aussies as a Welshman and everyone here and when I lived in England too said Aussies are nice people. It gets a bit tense whenever rugby or cricket is mentioned but still it's a great country. Adam Hills is a top bloke!
"This shit's ridiculous, we cannot grow marihuana crops here." Totally. Lost. My. Shit! Genius. Greetings from Den Helder, Netherlands. The birthplace of William Lonsdale, founder of Melbourne
Which Australian accent do you like? There are about twelve and that is just amongst us Gubbas (Europeans) and in the Koori and other Aboriginal groups many more.
Born and raised in Australia, with Half hungarian in me, but i tend to speak with a British accent, i find it odd that i do, because no one in my family has any british decendants.
only saw adam hills last night had never heard of him before but OMG he is soooo funny ive never laughed so much. got to be the best comedian EVER brilliant
My favourite accent, Adam. Born and raised in Germany with an American father and I catch myself with Australian pronunciation every once in a while because many things I like and enjoy come from Australia. Mighty Car Mods, Adam Hills, Airbourne...
Well we don't really have parts of Australia that speak different to each other and no we don't go up at the end of a sentence unless I haven't realised
Yes, I'm afraid a lot of Aussies, of which I am one, do end their sentences on a high note. It annoys me because it makes them sound tentative. Then again, so many things about the way people speak annoy the shite out of me, for example so many people say "so yeah" at the end of a sentence, as though they don't have enough of a vocabulary to finish a sentence. Or feel the need to say ''just" all the fricken time. I was JUST going to town and my friend JUST called at the wrong time and JUST stuffed up my timetable and I JUST tried my best. So irritating. It diminishes the statement they are making - and they don't even realise it. Not to mention the valley girls which spread like a fricken virus, I could throttle people on public transport or near me who pepper their conversation with "like" - he was "like" checking his emails and "like" got one from Sandi and "like"...... - I've heard it up to 70 times from 2 twats talking in a 20 minute conversation. Morgan Freeman has the best voice in the world to me, so bee-yoo-tiful. I also love Jaime Murray's 'received pronunciation' English accent, doesn't make me wince like listening to the queen or her twit of a hubbie, that I can't tolerate. I heard a guy describe Jaime's voice as 'posh totty' - that made me laugh! Don't think Aussie accents are any more annoying than Kiwis or the Queen.
@appleism100 I am Australian and was just in New Zealand 2 weeks. The accents are very, very similar. Really strong NZ accents diverge sharply from Aust ones, but for many people, the accents are almost identical.
This guy is AMAZING!!! But I don't agree that the Aussie accent is the world's most annoying accent at all. I'm from England and I have an Australian girlfriend, and one of the reasons I fell in love with her is because of her accent, I find it's a very beautiful accent, very serene. Also, I'm from the northern part of England from a county called Lancashire which is next to Yorkshire, and I can agree 100% that Captain Cook said that!! XD Either that or that first Kangaroo he saw he would have said hey up to it XD
When I travelled the US, a lot of people didn't know where I was from by my accent but a few did :) 99% of people that tried to replicate it kinda failed :P
Oh man, I love Adam Hill :D Fav Aussie comedian :D I do love the fact that us Aussies are rather laidback about making fun of each other, and we all know that we're not being serious, and most others get that Aussies take the piss out of everyone and everything, so they just roll with it :D
Adam Hills has got to be one of the most outstanding talents in Australia .. skilled in a multitude of media / entertainment domains .. plus, a lovely element of humility runs thru his persona ... & I hope the ABC fully realises just what a great Value-Added Factor that his presence on the payrollbrings to our national broadcaster ...
Dendy 98% of all content I watch is produced in the US, not once has it ever had the kind of inflection aussies do. I'm not doubting you, just saying I've never witnessed it myself
Funny -loved the accents- em, the rising inflection (question) at the end of statements is relatively new, incorrect of course, but it's funny when you use it Adam - how blessed are the meek? : ha ha brilliant.
The thing when i was younger i loved Australian accents, never mind about people obsessing over our English accents but to me Australian accents were the best! I think it's because i basically fell in love with the Great Steve Irwin! Another reason why you guys are cool! You obviously had the best celebrity in the world!
I just found out that I find it sexy. Was watching some videos on NordVPN with Australian IP and had some Aussie voiced ads, that is definitely a turn on.
I'm a Kiwi, and as much as Aussies make fun of our accent, we make fun of theirs. Having said that, there are slight variances in New Zealand accents, and slight variances in Australian accents. Somebody who went to grammar school in the affluent Sydney or Melbourne suburbs will talk differently, to say Steve Irwin, "God bless him", or someone from Western Sydney, or rural Queensland. Just saying, that is just my observation. Still it could be worse, it could be South African.
I love your accents. I’m a pom and whenever I hear something said with an English accent (obvs depending where in England it’s from: Geordie is a major exception 🥰) it sounds proper hard nosed and serious. Australians are so cool and chilled sounding and the question fing is endearing ❤️
The Americans watching this will be like “oh! Now i know how to talk to an Australian” and the Australians watching are going “ this is fake i dont sound like this, the things people think about my accent”
Love Australian accents. I'm from America and I want to take a vacation to Australia. I didn't realize so many people hated to be compared to Americans. I hate stereotypes. Not everyone in America is a terrible person.
Of course not!! I’ve met some lovely people in America. Just like all English people aren’t posh - so many different accents in England, Scotland and Wales.
Actually , he did a fairly accurate Dutch accent . The Dutch accent has been an influence on the German accent , the Austrian accent , the Swiss accent , the Welsh accent , the Irish accent , certain variations of the Scottish accent ( most notably Sean Connery`s unique Glaswegian accent ) , the English West Country accent , the British Canadian accent , the P.A. Dutch accent of course and the New York accent along with Italian , British and Irish .
I think the only people who can make fun of us...is us. And the only people who can make fun of other countries...is us. Generally speaking Australians never take anything seriously so if we say something about ourselves or other countries people know that we don't really mean it.
Well I wouldn't say intrigued. :D You Aussies are lovely people and I think I speak for many here, saying we love your accent. I know I do. that for sure. I myself am a non-native speaker, who happens to sound like the product of an American, a Scotsman and a hint of Irish thrown into a blender. If I ever had the chance to share a flat with an Aussie, I'd absolutely love to add Aussie accent into my already indescribable mix of bits.
He is hilarious! What I love about Aussie rising inflection is that it makes serious stuff sound funny and less tense)) Moreover it's easy to imitate and as a foreigner I think I've already picked it up.
The worse Australian accents are people trying to do Australian accents.
Fucking oath mate
This guy is Australian tho
Throw anotha shrimp on the baaaaarbieeee
True
Bloody oath
I dont end my sentences with an upward inflection?

Brilliant 👍👏🏽👏🏽
+Phoebe Carter and don't forget Gazza, Bazza, Shazza and "Chook" because there's always a Chook

They're nicknames... The English do the same thing.
Don't forget Sharon, Shazza and Warren, Wazza pronounced wozza

Are you kidding me? Have you ever heard Karl Urban? Jesus, that gets me going.
Nz hes the werst icksent
Nah your one is Mate. It's like nails on a chalkboard lol.
In research showed that aussie /Australian accent are 2 best accent after uk 🇬🇧🤝🇦🇺😅😅😅☺️☺️
I'm a Kiwi, and as much as Aussies make fun of our accent, we make fun of theirs. Having said that, there are slight variances in New Zealand accents, and slight variances in Australian accents. Somebody who went to grammar school in the affluent Sydney or Melbourne suburbs will talk differently, to say Steve Irwin, "God bless him", or someone from Western Sydney, or rural Queensland. Just saying, that is just my observation. Still it could be worse, it could be South African.
damn whats wrong with audience
I can add it in the description of the video so you can refer to it
The audience seems rigged...They literally laughed after each and every sentence that the comedian spoke.
When they clap you see that the audience actually dont move a muscle. yup.. rigged.
Your UA-cam name and Adam Hills put together is hilarious... XD
I love the Australian accent and the up inflection is very much a part of the appeal.
most annoying accent is the kiwi accent worst ever
I'm glad there are people with accents even more annoying than we Americans.
Where are you from poitty1978?
Dane Gilbo 100% proud Aussie born bred Australian
poitty1978 And thats why you think kiwi accents are worse then Aussie accents... Just a tad biased.
Hayley Ward Australians arent the only ones the poms Sth Africans Yanks think the same
Adam Hills is a funny man
I could watch this all day just to hear his Australian accent... great god o.o;
I like Australian accents in general. This guy was great, loved the accents.
He's AMAZING! I usually have problems with understanding auzzie accent but I find it really cool at the same time :)
It's so true. Our accent is so bloody odd.
My aunt taught Adam Hills when he was little. That fact alone makes me laugh.
I love your accents. I’m a pom and whenever I hear something said with an English accent (obvs depending where in England it’s from: Geordie is a major exception 🥰) it sounds proper hard nosed and serious. Australians are so cool and chilled sounding and the question fing is endearing ❤️
The Americans watching this will be like “oh! Now i know how to talk to an Australian” and the Australians watching are going “ this is fake i dont sound like this, the things people think about my accent”
Holy shit, he actually did the Dutch English accent really well.
lmao this was the first Melbourne comedy festival I watched
Entire video in one sentence: Guy says something, audience laughs
Love Australian accents. I'm from America and I want to take a vacation to Australia. I didn't realize so many people hated to be compared to Americans. I hate stereotypes. Not everyone in America is a terrible person.
Of course not!! I’ve met some lovely people in America. Just like all English people aren’t posh - so many different accents in England, Scotland and Wales.
Hahaha I'm French! Good imitation :D
This guy is really funny, I have to check more of his videos!
Still working on my expression, any tips?
how blessed is he.
This is excellent
Hilarious because I definitely end sentences with an upward inflection. Love the part where the Dutch came to Western Australia ?
Actually , he did a fairly accurate Dutch accent . The Dutch accent has been an influence on the German accent , the Austrian accent , the Swiss accent , the Welsh accent , the Irish accent , certain variations of the Scottish accent ( most notably Sean Connery`s unique Glaswegian accent ) , the English West Country accent , the British Canadian accent , the P.A. Dutch accent of course and the New York accent along with Italian , British and Irish .
THIS CRACKED ME UP!!!! God I wanna go to Australia so bad!!
Excellent video
does there've anyone who could add the subtitles? please and thanks
I think the only people who can make fun of us...is us. And the only people who can make fun of other countries...is us. Generally speaking Australians never take anything seriously so if we say something about ourselves or other countries people know that we don't really mean it.
The Doug Anthony All-Stars were the best Australian comedy had to offer and the last 25 years
We have this thing with names where we add 'Eee' to the end when we are doing something.
YAY! We can comment on this video now! :D
Also Adem Hills is one of the funniest men alive! XD
Well I wouldn't say intrigued. :D You Aussies are lovely people and I think I speak for many here, saying we love your accent. I know I do. that for sure. I myself am a non-native speaker, who happens to sound like the product of an American, a Scotsman and a hint of Irish thrown into a blender. If I ever had the chance to share a flat with an Aussie, I'd absolutely love to add Aussie accent into my already indescribable mix of bits.
As a yorkshireman I can confirm that is EXACTLY what we would have said.
Omg I was there that night :D ily Adam hills
"I find you guilty"...?
Had me laughing! 😂
He sounded Scottish at 0:17.
He is hilarious! What I love about Aussie rising inflection is that it makes serious stuff sound funny and less tense)) Moreover it's easy to imitate and as a foreigner I think I've already picked it up.
Very funny video, loved it
