My attempt at an Australian accent. I want to improve so please leave comments!
Update 2/7/11 - I'm getting the impression that some of you are really angry/offended about how British my accent sounds, and seem to think that Americans somehow can't tell the difference between Brits and Australians. There are a few reasons for this: 1) I'm trying to steer away from the broad 'Steve Irwin' accent that most Americans seem to think represents all Aussie accents, mainly because a lot of Australians seem to get annoyed with people who attempt that kind of accent, 2) it's actually really hard for Americans to hear the difference between a British and 'general' Australian accent, and 3) most of my Australian relatives, whose accents I hear the most, are among that (~10%?) segment of the population who have a more British-sounding Australian accent, so I guess that's what I'm used to hearing. Anyway, I know that my attempt leaves much to be desired and that I can't please everyone, but I really don't understand those people who get so upset about a pretty insignificant video that think they need to curse/insult me.
If you have constructive criticism, I continue to welcome your comments.
