People don't know what I'm talking about.
I have to speak really slowly otherwise they don't understand my accent.
You know, like I checked in the hotel, you know.
G'day, mate.
How you going?
06:00
He goes, "I'm sorry, sir."
"Hello.
How are you?"
"I'm good."
So the expression he got over here, you know, you call flip-flops, flip-flops.
We don't call them that in Australia.
We call them thongs.
You know what you call thongs over here?
Women's G-strings.
Nobody told me that the first time I got here.
See the conversation was having this bloke in the street.
He goes, "Man, once you've been over here, you can see a thumb."
I said, "What's he doing?"
"What are you looking at a thong for?"
See, he was popping out the top of his jeans.
I said, "What was popping out the top of his jeans?"
"A thumb."
"A thong was popping out the top of his jeans."
"What's a freaking thong doing popping out the top of his jeans?"
Okay.
He said, "Man, when you look down at jeans, you can see a thumb."
See, man, it's that Bluetooth J's on.
Wow.
Very Australian.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So there was a difference, actually.
Not that much, but yeah, some of them were different.

Yeah.

We don't have a good chat.
But not for too long.
So what us Aussies have done is abbreviated everything.

This is so impreso...

Dude, that's... careful, man.
Impresi...
Dude, you're gonna...
It's just disrespecting the Australians, man.

What was that again?
Don't the people who answer these are Aussies?
What?

Strat...
Australia.
Straya.
Straya.
Straya.
Yeah, Straya.
Wow!
Straya accent.
Straya.
Dang.
Wow, this is very interesting.
It's...
I thought it's kind of similar to British accent, but it's not actually.
It's completely different.
It's more like...
kind of beachy...
Yes! That's what I thought.
Yeah.
Kind of like laid back.
Yeah, atmosphere.
Like relaxed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
That's nice.
Uh...
But you do understand...
Yeah, I understand that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not that difficult to understand.
Besides like the abbreviated language, which is not common in US,
that I kind of have to...
I need context to understand.
But like, other than that, the way they speak isn't that hard to understand.
Okay, so it's not the same like when we listen to Aomori-ben.
No, no, no.
It's not like that.
It's much more easier to understand.
Okay, okay.
Wow.
Yeah.
Right.
That's nice.
Thank you for introduction.
Yeah, it was so nice.
And I love the way you speak.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's so cool.
Okay, thanks for listening guys.
Thank you.
