I'm fair dinkum Aussie and I just don't get what's so funny about us speaking normal English... We all talk like that in the bush, only, perhaps a bit slower than city types....Women do, too. Female friend just asked if anybody has a fag as she's desperate for one and that she needs to take a leak. A pair of shocked female English migrant eyebrows shoot up as she goes: What did you just say,? You want a WHAT? You're so crude and vulgar and nothing's leaking in my house. The Aussie friend replid 'a ciggie, mate, even a rollie will do,when I get back from the loo, before I have an accident snd pee all over your clean floor.I 'm desperate to go....' 'Crazy sheila' one of the blokes mumbled. English lady looks perplexed as the mention of sheila, a normal English female name but very derogatory male sexist word for 'woman' in Australia. You just do not name you daughter Sheila here, unless you hate her. Or something as obscene as Fanny, referring to female vagina, in Australia. You hear all these Yanks trying to market 'Fanny bags' to Aussie women giving them weird looks. 'A what? You can't possibly fit any twot into one of those bags. Typical big American con, they must think we're stoopid or something...' one bold Aussie woman finally spoke out, about Yanks taking over Australia. The polite US saleslady just didn't get it. Another Aussie then asked if she had any decent "Bum bags' for sale. The polite American sales lady apologised about having none and was then accused of lying, by the rest of the Aussie women present. 'What's that fanny bag one you just tried to flog us? Looks more like it could be used as a bum bag, not for carrying a woman's fanny in. Now why on earth would we need a Fanny bag to carry out vaginas in?' they all agreed. The poor nice US lady bags saleswoman finally gave up and politely excused her self, to leave, no sale was made, tbough she wanted to sell a bag and they wanted buy one. But which kind. ? All looked the same but had a different noun to denote a bag that is worn over the shoulder, at hip length, often hitting a woman's butt as she walks, hence the Aussie 'Bum bag' the yanks call a Fanny Bag and that sales lady felt insulted thinking the Aussie women were describing her bags as bags for poor, down and out desitute street bums etc. When they were stylish, high class shoulder bags.
We used to live like this. Then immigration took over. Had to defend our own homes from terrorism, as th old neighbours went quiet , walked around covering thier Heads and act very suspicious... Watch Ur back!
And if your going to visit Australia, you will notice, that everywhere you go, they are so nice people (The once I have been seeing) but I think it is overall they're like that, they're so helpful and everything, really nice country 🙏

@@DAIMBRAN Did you not read the title of the video or you just wanna talk shit cause no one's impressed with your fly by night rendition of attempted sarcasm!
Most Aussies in the country talk like him. In the cities it's more diverse multicultural. And Aussie there don't sound the same the accent more like the guy who's making this video.
My wife is Irish (from Dublin) and we visit her family in Ireland every couple of years. The first trip I made to Ireland I was prepared to struggle a bit with the accents, particularly on the west coast of Ireland where the accents are very thick. But what I wasn't ready for was that they weren't able to understand me either, and my accent isn't even that broad by Australian standards. I found I had to adjust the way I spoke and change some of the words I used to fall in line with local colloquialisms otherwise I had no chance of being understood. I ran into a fellow Aussie in a pub in Kenmare once and we both fell back into a regular conversation, after a little while we became aware that we'd gathered a bit of an audience, and my wife (who was used to it) doing a bit of translating. Apparently when we lapsed into our regular Australian way of talking they couldn't understand most of it. That was pretty funny. I didn't pay for a single drink after that, they wouldn't let me, they just asked me to "say something in Australian".
lets be fair, the accent isnt necessarily the hard part most of the time, this dude was real easy to understand (im an american). the hard part is usually going to be if you use slang very heavily. thats where stuff may get lost in translation so to speak. at least for english speakers that is, thats when something is going to sound like a different language when you are using your local slang very casually.
I'm Aussie so I understood the whole interview easily. The other points I picked up are him saying "I seen" instead of "I've seen" and the pronunciation of "decided" ("de-soy-ded")
@@jimexploded thats cuz we speak more softly lol, we dont pronounce all letters in our words, especially letters like t’s in the middle of butter, and er’s at the end of words
As a Brit i had no problems understanding him. Alot of the Aussie slang is also used in the UK such as 'bloke' and 'mate' we also shorten words somtimes in similar ways and other times differently. All depends what part of the UK.
My parents were both born in Australia but dad's father was from London & dad used a lot of Cockney slang while sounding like a real Aussie. Mum's father was from Manchester & she often sounded "rough as guts" They both had some really funny sayings though.
Being Australian, this conversation makes complete sense. My first reaction was "how could anyone not understand this" But as it's broken down, I can actually see now how it could be found difficult to understand as a foreigner.
English is my third language and this is 100% understandable without listening twice. But then again, I've trained my ears by watching English TV series without subtitles for 20 years now.
I'm Scottish, when me and my pals are mucking about and doing Aussie accents to amuse one another, Daniel's accent and intonation would, without realising it, seem to be our default impression of a standard Australian.
A former (Scottish) colleague of mine and I used to try and do each other's accents whenever we got drunk. Fun times. Also, this accent is verrrrry broad. Most of us don't have quite this accent!
Speaking of Scottish, after watching this video and easily understood everything Daniel was saying because I grew up here in Australia and being surprised that others around the world can't understand him, I can now see how Doric dialect (Arberdeen, Scotland) is so hard for everyone else but is easily understood by the locals.
Top bloke Daniel. Nasally, yes, but understood every bit of it. As you broke each bit down I went, “yep, I do that too.” I’ve had people say I’ve got a broad accent but not so nasally. Including my wife and students. I once said I speak 2 languages. English and bogan.
See, I’m English, and I’m married to a real bogan, true blue, Aussie. When we first met….we were lost in translation for months. Lol. He would misunderstand the inflection in my accent, and I sometimes genuinely couldn’t understand him when he spoke so fast. Now, 15 years later….. I sound a little like him, and he sounds a little like me, and we’ve met in the middle 😂👍🏽
What a legend... onya Daniel. The Aussie slang has worked its way into my heart, but when I first arrived in Australia and hopped off the plane (😆🤣) and on my way to the hotel I was booked into... I stopped at a milkbar to buy a pkt of smokes and the lady behind the counter said... anwhawill itbee-luuv in a high pitched nasally drawl that instantly made me recoil in disbelief and horror hahaaa, I remember thinkin I will NEVER pick up the aussie accent, because of her drawl. yet 46 yrs on and yep you guessed it every now n then I can slip into the drawel and slang bit just like any good ol ocker can. Hahaaaahaa. Most people can still pick up on my Kiwi accent after all these yrs but now I have an Aussie/Kiwi twang that has me calling myself a Kwaussi now an lovinit 😂😆🤣
As a new Australian I can say ... I love the Australian accent ... love love love it !!!. I love Australian people . Long live Australia!!! Good on ya Daniel !!!
My French friend who spent 2 years speaking excellent English in England before coming to Australia, said she cried within 24 hours of landing here, the language was so incomprehensible to her. She laughs about it now, but she was seriously about to buy a ticket out of this crazy country within a week. Thought she'd been conned that she was coming to an English speaking country.
In Japan. My bestie's bro went on working holiday and he lasted 3 days before running back to Japan, depressed about how much his English sucked. Poor baby.
Really ? I'm not a native English speaker, learned English at school and I understood him without a problem. For me people from the southern US states are much more difficult to understand. But - of course - I had to listen carefully - much more careful than I have to do when listening to a person speaking Oxford English.
@@AussieEnglishPodcast I'm French but fully bilingual (I went to an international school and had nearly all my classes in English from 6th grade (age 11) to my last year of high school) and I saw the video of this interview a couple years back and I was actually able to understand most of it. But I have had teachers from almost every anglophone countries throughout my school years since international schools (at least those outside anglophone countries) mainly recruit expatriated anglophone teachers. So that may have helped. But I've realized that while unusual accents used to be very hard for me in my first few years of being at an anglophone school and basically learning English at a native-like level, it has become much less of an issue for me since with most accents.
@@aurelienlux ha, my husband is fully Spanish/English bilingual but Spanish is his native language. I tried getting him into Flight of the Conchords and within the first 10 minutes he was like "wtf are they even saying?" 😂
What was interesting was Lisa Wilkinson slightly became more informal and casual with her speaking style too and slightly changed her pitch to the more broad accent. Instead of her professional formal, highly cultivated TV presenter style. I think she did this subconsciously to be relatable and mirror the tone of Daniel.
Lisa has a "performance" background so probably mimicking accents comes naturally and like you said she does it subconsciously. My sister is the same and when she visited London England for a year within a week picked up the local accent. She lost it a week after she came back. A friend who I played in bands with, went to live in the USA. He got so annoyed with everyone stopping him to "say something in Australian", that he would study the local accent and the consciously mimic it so he wouldn't attract attention. He didn't find it difficult to do.
My family are 'northeners' from UK, we came here when I was a toddler in 1964. Dad is gone now but never lost his accent, Mum is still kicking and has a strong accent. Normally I have a broad aussie accent, but people have told me I slip into a bit of a northern accent when I'm talking to mum or dad. but I don't notice I'm doing it until someone points it out.
I had an Aussie Friend back in college. He was a foreign exchange student. His accent was so thick we had not one clue what he was saying. Everytime he told a story we would nod our heads & laugh everytime he laughed. 🤣
As someone else said, if you throw a couple "really?" In there, he'll go on and on. Especially if you throw in "Oh yeah nah mate? Really?" Or "Yeah nah yeah nah yeah nah yeah mate. Fuckin oath."
Trust Me he has to part Irishman, im Australian native who has dated an Irishman the talk and running after him with jocks yeah I bet he would have chased him naked but his Mrs probably gave him his undies . I can DEFFINETLY SAY N I BET IF YOU ASKED HER SHE WILL SAY THE SAME THING. ONLY A PART IRISHMAN/AUSSIE HAVE THE GUTS TO CHASE HIM WITH UNDIES OR NAKED DOWN THE ROAD I HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE WITH MY EX MR. RAWNSLEY LOLS CHASING HIS BROTHER WITH UNDIES ON HE WANTED TO CHASE HIM NAKED . YEAH THERE ARE CRAZY PPL IN AUSTRALIA WHILE OTHERS ARE NORMAL WE'RE CRAZY.
He is Definitely "True Blue" 'Aussie '😂 . Im Native Custodian to Australia they would have ran with what ever they had on quick thinking always saves the day and catches the Criminal 😂. But he has to be Part Irishman/Aussie that straight out slang and running after the dude in undies. An Irishman/Aussie has no time to dress to catch any type Criminal, im glad his Partner gave him his undies, I know from past experience, the Irishman/Aussiehas the same type of talk/slang and runningafter a Criminal in that form. Maybe not all Aussie's.... who said we're all normal in this world. Normal thing is he saved more lives while risking a Policeman's Job
Yeah, As an Aussie he did not seem particularly hard to understand. I can think of a lot more Aussies that would be harder to understand for overseas people and use way more slang. Scoot down the road was only time I felt someone overseas may have thought he literally meant a scooter and then maybe confused.
I am from Poland, and whenever I feel sad - I just need to listen to Daniel :) He is so humble and honest - and funny Aussie :D Thank you @AussieEnglish for all of the explanations - by myself, I understood like 90% of what he was sayin' (:P) - now I know everything! And will definitely stay longer on your channel, mate :)
Your Boston accent is hilarious but I love it so much. But the Southerners! Those are amazing accents! And who doesn’t love a cowboy, there’s just something about that drawl too… and for some reason my hubby doesn’t adore that Ladies Love Country Boys song and video like I do hahaha
Me, German, not being able to understand the extreme form of my own accent (Swabian) but understanding this without a problem 😂. *Thank you "Bondi rescue"!* 😆
Ich bin aus Bayern, und versteh auch "nur" 98%, ist tatsächlich lustig, wobei gibt ja auch wieder Unterschiede schwäbisch ist nicht gleich schwäbisch und Bayerisch nicht gleich Bayerisch
I'm from México and know some English and I can't understand everything of the mate but I thing he's one of those mates that is very pleasure to have a conversation with
Yeah, there's a level of that. There's still the class divide in that we're aware it exists economically, socially, educationally, but I think a lot less stigma and negativity is involved.
@@natnat5082 then that is their problem, we all love our Aussie "bogans" (I don't mean that in a derogatory way) I was raised on Sydneys north shore (Pymble) and married a man from Campbelltown (back in the 70’s) at first my parents were horrified but ended up absolutely loving him, his integrity, his work ethic, his honesty, and the fact he treated me like gold and was a fantastic father. Funny thing is my parents (Mum especially) picked up a lot of his expressions and wasn't shy to use them.
As an Australian, I find it's mainly older people of English descent who still care about 'class'. My street is made up of people of all occupations - from Doctors to supermarket workers. The older tradie is probably the wealthiest of all, lol. I love that there's no class crap here.
As an Australian myself, I still have a giggle at someone if i'm in a conversation with someone with a really broad accent. The words they say as well 🤣
As someone from rural QLD I understand everything that he said. We still use those words out here although most not as liberally as Daniel there. I was slightly surprised that people in Brisbane still spoke that way, but I'm glad. Enough with trying to bring US culture here.
Even in Oz, how so? As a yank living in Europe I get sick and tired of how much of our culture is so dominate 😬 like I can here to check your culture out and all I see is America shit around. Doesn’t make any senseee
Of all the cultures being imported to Australia, its NOT the (traditional) USA culture that you have to worry about. If you don't even know that by now, well... not sure how well I'd think of you.
Hi English teacher , I'm mehdi , I'm Hazare from Afghanistan, I've been Australia for almost 4 years . I enjoy listen to your accent very soft and I understand well . I quite often watch your videos and lessons quite useful . I like Australia and I'm quite sad for history of Australia. My lovely regard to you thanks so much for your effort for forighner and us .
Has it been a year already? Far out. Im an Aussie and watch the Today show every morning. Not all Aussies speak like this, but, well, this guy's a legend. 🇦🇺❤️

I’m married to a true blue bogan Aussie, and proud of it. I’m English, so when I met him…. I sincerely couldn’t understand a bloody word he said. Everything sounded like a question lol. He couldn’t understand my cockney accent much either, but we got it eventually 👍🏽😂🇦🇺
Northwestern american here, everyone around me can't understand a word but I can. Idk why but I can. The trick is to just not focus on understanding it. Subconsciously understand it. Maybe I am just trained enough on Aussie accents that ridiculously thick Aussie accents aren't an issue. I still do decent with really really thick Irish accents though.
First time I saw this interview I was so taken with his broad Aussie accent. Being Aussie myself I totally understood everything he said. I use some slang too, like me instead of my, bloke for a man, I run my words together so it sounds like a sentence. Aussie's are good at that. I'm not as bogan as our dear Daniel, I'm somewhere in between. Proud to be an Aussie. I love this beautiful country and it's diverse people.
That bloke is a bloody Legend! And a decent fella of course. Next episode should be about those two dudes from Gold Coast who caught robbers and "busted their puggers". Cheers.
His accent reminds me of the southern accent in the US. I’m from NC and had absolutely no issues understanding everything he said. Australians just seem way happier. He would fit in great here.
Sometimes I'll initially here a Southern American accent and think it's Australian. Just a couple of words, and I have to tune in to realise it is not Australian. Must be the twang. I'm Australian by the way, born and bred Melburnian.
I'm a Filipino and I only understand 60% of what he is saying 🤣. The pronunciation is hard to understand especially if you are not watching Australian movies or youtube videos from Australians.
As an Aussie I'm imagining the R rated version he tells his mates...I was in me f'kin undies and some c'nt smashed through the f'kin fish and chip shop down the f'kin road...you get the picture 🤣😂
I think I’ve watched too many Aussie tv shows because I understood everything as a Swede who’s never visited Australia. Though this has presented a bit of a challenge for me because I know so many different English accents and our phonology teacher is now teaching us only the American one which has me thinking in four different accents (English, American, Aussie, Scottish), speaking in one (English) and doing the school work in one (American). Confusing.
@@iamshredder3587 It’s absolutely true yes. Especially in the north. It’s almost as light as day even in the middle of the night for at least a couple of weeks in the summer. Then on the other hand it’s completely black for all but maybe 5 hours a day during the darkest of winter haha. But summer nights are amazing!
Daniel is a legend. What a great storyteller and a good bloke! By the way, no expletives or swear words. Amazing. This is for a national TV interview, mate. As a first-generation migrant to Australia, I have no problem at all. Anyone who speaks or has learned to speak English in Australia can handle this interview. Australian English speakers, regardless of where they live, all do a bit of code-switching unconsciously and effortlessly between roughly speaking three varieties of Australian English (broad 'Stralian (like Dainiel on the video), relaxed Australian English (spoken with friends and family members when socialising - e.g., sports commentators on TV), and Standard Australian English (doing presentation at the workplace, etc., e.g., Donna Parkes' announcement on Japanese Shinkansen - ); perhaps not all Australian English speakers are fluent speaking three types but only one variety but we all understand them all. I can't entirely agree with the characterisation of a very broad Australian as "uneducated" or "lower class" speech, though. No one has the right to make fun of a broad Australian English (Nahyeah, I find the chuckle and the presenters' reactions a bit, eh, distracting). You must have lived the experience of growing up with it to speak it fluently.
I’m Malaysian and my partner is from Northern Ireland. English is my second language. But funny enough, I can understand this guy pretty well 😂. Thanks to my partner thick/ complicated Northern Ireland accent + slang, I can pick up all English accents from all over the world now 😂
Years of watching late Steve Erwin in animal planet during my childhood helped me become familiar with aussie accent and understand them with no problem..rest in peace Stevo!
, “Jocks” is short for Jockets which was a brand of underwear back in the 70s. It is like when English people say “hoover the carpet” because Hoover was one of the first brand of vacuum cleaners. He is a great example of how being open, honest and respectful can cross so called class boundaries.
Back in the 70s my mother used to say she was going to electrolux the carpet. Electrolux was the brand of “hoover” she used. We never found it weird. Trouble is, I can’t think what this appliance actually should be called. I live in the Netherlands now and they call it a “stofzuiger”; literally a dust sucker! Edit: you already said it is a vacuum cleaner, I should pay better attention, and of course I already knew that!
When they send Daniel's video to space in order to preserve the good stuff from this world, be sure to attach this video too for further explanations! Great content mate, me favorite channel now on
I'm an Aussie and 90% of us don't speak like this but people brought up here would understand this 100%. He doesn't mumble at least so if you are accustomed to this way of speaking he is very easy to understand.
I am Canadian too, I have been to Aussie many times and also watch lots of Aussie TV. I didn't miss any of what the guy was saying. There are many Aussie words that non-Aussies would not have understood if he was using them. One saying for sure would be 'Fair Dinkum' 😄
I remember when this happened, love Daniel. He's just a good dude. Makes me proud to be an Aussie. (I completely understood ever word, no worries mate) 😉
That's Great! Thank you very much Mate! i'm from Brazil i have been to Australia back in 2007/08 to learn english. Back then i found broad aussie lingo very hard for us foreigners to understand. You did a very good job breaking it and explaining every single sentence and slangs. Thanks again, it was very helpfull, cuz' once in a while somebody send me this video asking if a can understand it, Cuz' they know that i've lived in Brisbane for a couple of years, and they think i have a masters degree in australian. BTW sometimes i teach me mates english and help as a translator in me comunity when someone come from overseas here. You know “Ya look after your mates and your mates will always look after ya“
As an Aussie I had no trouble understanding him but it's really interesting to see an accent and slang broken down like this into it's components. It also reminded me of how my accent influences how I do casual writing to myself in notes n stuff. My choice of spelling reflecting my accent.
Why did i find your channel just now? I'm from Brazil, when I arrived in australia I thought I understood english until my first job in construction. Thank you for your videos!

Saludos de 🌶 🇨🇱 !!
As an Australian who uses so much of Daniel's speech, I never realised I could possibly have an accent that would be hard to understand, WOW!!
My wife is Irish (from Dublin) and we visit her family in Ireland every couple of years. The first trip I made to Ireland I was prepared to struggle a bit with the accents, particularly on the west coast of Ireland where the accents are very thick. But what I wasn't ready for was that they weren't able to understand me either, and my accent isn't even that broad by Australian standards. I found I had to adjust the way I spoke and change some of the words I used to fall in line with local colloquialisms otherwise I had no chance of being understood. I ran into a fellow Aussie in a pub in Kenmare once and we both fell back into a regular conversation, after a little while we became aware that we'd gathered a bit of an audience, and my wife (who was used to it) doing a bit of translating. Apparently when we lapsed into our regular Australian way of talking they couldn't understand most of it. That was pretty funny. I didn't pay for a single drink after that, they wouldn't let me, they just asked me to "say something in Australian".
lets be fair, the accent isnt necessarily the hard part most of the time, this dude was real easy to understand (im an american). the hard part is usually going to be if you use slang very heavily. thats where stuff may get lost in translation so to speak. at least for english speakers that is, thats when something is going to sound like a different language when you are using your local slang very casually.
It's really hard to understand him... because of the pronunciation and the higher speed that he speaks
I'm Spanish and i did understand everything, i guess some British accents are much tougher
i am a german with school english and understand everything... so why is that viral...?
I'm Aussie so I understood the whole interview easily.
The other points I picked up are him saying "I seen" instead of "I've seen" and the pronunciation of "decided" ("de-soy-ded")
Well-spotted!
@@AussieEnglishPodcast Thanks Mate! ;)
You’re a pelican
And a strong N then a pause, instead of and
@@jimexploded thats cuz we speak more softly lol, we dont pronounce all letters in our words, especially letters like t’s in the middle of butter, and er’s at the end of words
I can understand him too. He’s amazing
first
As a Brit i had no problems understanding him. Alot of the Aussie slang is also used in the UK such as 'bloke' and 'mate' we also shorten words somtimes in similar ways and other times differently. All depends what part of the UK.
My parents were both born in Australia but dad's father was from London & dad used a lot of Cockney slang while sounding like a real Aussie. Mum's father was from Manchester & she often sounded "rough as guts" They both had some really funny sayings though.
Don't call an Aussie mate unless you want a fight.... we call our mates c#$/s
maybe because we mostly came from over there lol, as convicts, might explain why there is similarity, not entirely sure though
Pretty sure our accent comes mainly from cockney, with a little bit of Irish mixed in for good measure.

Great interview and l understood what he was talking about because l am Australian and am 69 years old and have heard many slang terms in my life
Being Australian, this conversation makes complete sense. My first reaction was "how could anyone not understand this" But as it's broken down, I can actually see now how it could be found difficult to understand as a foreigner.
He's dead easy to understand,,
Don't know why this blokes trying
To break it up like were all morons
Or something... geez..
@@elmerfudd6305it's not as easy when English isn't one's first language
English is my third language and this is 100% understandable without listening twice. But then again, I've trained my ears by watching English TV series without subtitles for 20 years now.
I'm from California, and I understood everything. I can see how it could be difficult for a non-native speaker, though.
Even as a german i had no real problem understanding him. New Yorkers (for some reason) or Texanians, are much harder for me to follow them.
I'm Scottish, when me and my pals are mucking about and doing Aussie accents to amuse one another, Daniel's accent and intonation would, without realising it, seem to be our default impression of a standard Australian.
A former (Scottish) colleague of mine and I used to try and do each other's accents whenever we got drunk. Fun times.
Also, this accent is verrrrry broad. Most of us don't have quite this accent!
That is beautiful 🥰
A lot of Australians love trying the Scottish accent so I'm glad to hear that the love is mutual.
Speaking of Scottish, after watching this video and easily understood everything Daniel was saying because I grew up here in Australia and being surprised that others around the world can't understand him, I can now see how Doric dialect (Arberdeen, Scotland) is so hard for everyone else but is easily understood by the locals.
@@kayobi9903 Queensland
Top bloke Daniel. Nasally, yes, but understood every bit of it. As you broke each bit down I went, “yep, I do that too.” I’ve had people say I’ve got a broad accent but not so nasally. Including my wife and students.
I once said I speak 2 languages. English and bogan.
See, I’m English, and I’m married to a real bogan, true blue, Aussie. When we first met….we were lost in translation for months. Lol. He would misunderstand the inflection in my accent, and I sometimes genuinely couldn’t understand him when he spoke so fast. Now, 15 years later….. I sound a little like him, and he sounds a little like me, and we’ve met in the middle 😂👍🏽
That's the best! I love how you were "lost in translation" for so long ahahha

What a legend... onya Daniel. The Aussie slang has worked its way into my heart, but when I first arrived in Australia and hopped off the plane (😆🤣) and on my way to the hotel I was booked into... I stopped at a milkbar to buy a pkt of smokes and the lady behind the counter said... anwhawill itbee-luuv in a high pitched nasally drawl that instantly made me recoil in disbelief and horror hahaaa, I remember thinkin I will NEVER pick up the aussie accent, because of her drawl. yet 46 yrs on and yep you guessed it every now n then I can slip into the drawel and slang bit just like any good ol ocker can. Hahaaaahaa. Most people can still pick up on my Kiwi accent after all these yrs but now I have an Aussie/Kiwi twang that has me calling myself a Kwaussi now an lovinit 😂😆🤣
As a new Australian I can say ... I love the Australian accent ... love love love it !!!. I love Australian people . Long live Australia!!! Good on ya Daniel !!!
Righto dickhead. I’m an Aussie too!

Keep going to Australia long live yahooo!
Lovely comment. Thank you 🇦🇺
Glad you are loving it here. Hope everything will continue . Good on you,🙋
My French friend who spent 2 years speaking excellent English in England before coming to Australia, said she cried within 24 hours of landing here, the language was so incomprehensible to her. She laughs about it now, but she was seriously about to buy a ticket out of this crazy country within a week. Thought she'd been conned that she was coming to an English speaking country.
In Japan. My bestie's bro went on working holiday and he lasted 3 days before running back to Japan, depressed about how much his English sucked. Poor baby.
Really ? I'm not a native English speaker, learned English at school and I understood him without a problem. For me people from the southern US states are much more difficult to understand. But - of course - I had to listen carefully - much more careful than I have to do when listening to a person speaking Oxford English.
Love genuine people like this bloke lots of respect
As a doctor who immigrated to Australia I had my patient repeat himself three times when he said “I tripped over me chook”

Love this guy! It took me about 2 years of living in Australia to fully understand the broad Aussie accent.
Hehe yeah it comes with time :D Glad you've got it now!
I’ve lived in Australia for 10 years and I still struggle to fully understand the broad Aussie accent.
Yes. I'm a ex pom and agree and noone understood me either! Now an Aussie accent means home, and a pommie accent grates on my ears.
How hard was it to get citizenship there, I hear it can take years.
oi does that mean you wanna fight, come on then, fight me!
Best bloke ever! Should be more of it!
Funny how us Aussies find it so easy to understand it since it’s how we’ve heard it growing up, must sound like gibberish to others lmao
Haha yeah, pretty much. I've met other English speakers like Americans who just go crosseyed with accents like this.
I'm American- I may have watched a lot of Aussie and British shows as a kid I guess. I can understand everything.
@@AussieEnglishPodcast I'm French but fully bilingual (I went to an international school and had nearly all my classes in English from 6th grade (age 11) to my last year of high school) and I saw the video of this interview a couple years back and I was actually able to understand most of it.
But I have had teachers from almost every anglophone countries throughout my school years since international schools (at least those outside anglophone countries) mainly recruit expatriated anglophone teachers. So that may have helped. But I've realized that while unusual accents used to be very hard for me in my first few years of being at an anglophone school and basically learning English at a native-like level, it has become much less of an issue for me since with most accents.
@@aurelienlux yeah, as an Aussie, his accent is actually pretty clean.
@@aurelienlux ha, my husband is fully Spanish/English bilingual but Spanish is his native language. I tried getting him into Flight of the Conchords and within the first 10 minutes he was like "wtf are they even saying?" 😂
What was interesting was Lisa Wilkinson slightly became more informal and casual with her speaking style too and slightly changed her pitch to the more broad accent. Instead of her professional formal, highly cultivated TV presenter style. I think she did this subconsciously to be relatable and mirror the tone of Daniel.
Lisa has a "performance" background so probably mimicking accents comes naturally and like you said she does it subconsciously. My sister is the same and when she visited London England for a year within a week picked up the local accent. She lost it a week after she came back. A friend who I played in bands with, went to live in the USA. He got so annoyed with everyone stopping him to "say something in Australian", that he would study the local accent and the consciously mimic it so he wouldn't attract attention. He didn't find it difficult to do.
I disagree with you. I think it's more likely it was done intentionally, which I personally find more impressive.
@@mwhearn1 I had to do this in suburban America otherwise you just seem like an alien
My family are 'northeners' from UK, we came here when I was a toddler in 1964. Dad is gone now but never lost his accent, Mum is still kicking and has a strong accent. Normally I have a broad aussie accent, but people have told me I slip into a bit of a northern accent when I'm talking to mum or dad. but I don't notice I'm doing it until someone points it out.
I love how Aussies talk. I love their sense of humor. They're a kick
I had an Aussie Friend back in college. He was a foreign exchange student. His accent was so thick we had not one clue what he was saying. Everytime he told a story we would nod our heads & laugh everytime he laughed. 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Next time, you meet somebody like him, just throw a few "Really?" into the mix and he will talk forever... 🤣🤣🤣
As someone else said, if you throw a couple "really?" In there, he'll go on and on. Especially if you throw in "Oh yeah nah mate? Really?" Or "Yeah nah yeah nah yeah nah yeah mate. Fuckin oath."

I can DEFFINETLY SAY N I BET IF YOU ASKED HER SHE WILL SAY THE SAME THING. ONLY A PART IRISHMAN/AUSSIE HAVE THE GUTS TO CHASE HIM WITH UNDIES OR NAKED DOWN THE ROAD I HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE WITH MY EX MR. RAWNSLEY LOLS CHASING HIS BROTHER WITH UNDIES ON HE WANTED TO CHASE HIM NAKED . YEAH THERE ARE CRAZY PPL IN AUSTRALIA WHILE OTHERS ARE NORMAL WE'RE CRAZY.
He is Definitely "True Blue" 'Aussie '😂 . Im Native Custodian to Australia they would have ran with what ever they had on quick thinking always saves the day and catches the Criminal 😂. But he has to be Part Irishman/Aussie that straight out slang and running after the dude in undies. An Irishman/Aussie has no time to dress to catch any type Criminal, im glad his Partner gave him his undies, I know from past experience, the Irishman/Aussiehas the same type of talk/slang and runningafter a Criminal in that form. Maybe not all Aussie's.... who said we're all normal in this world. Normal thing is he saved more lives while risking a Policeman's Job
I'm a venezuelan and I understood everything he said, I didn't find it difficult, but funny! And I loved it.
Yeah, As an Aussie he did not seem particularly hard to understand. I can think of a lot more Aussies that would be harder to understand for overseas people and use way more slang. Scoot down the road was only time I felt someone overseas may have thought he literally meant a scooter and then maybe confused.
I am from Poland, and whenever I feel sad - I just need to listen to Daniel :) He is so humble and honest - and funny Aussie :D Thank you @AussieEnglish for all of the explanations - by myself, I understood like 90% of what he was sayin' (:P) - now I know everything! And will definitely stay longer on your channel, mate :)

I feel like most Aussies don't acknowledge any levels of class and bloaks like this are loved throughout.
Yeah, there's a level of that. There's still the class divide in that we're aware it exists economically, socially, educationally, but I think a lot less stigma and negativity is involved.
Higher socioeconomic groups would definitely look down on his speech
@@natnat5082 then that is their problem, we all love our Aussie "bogans" (I don't mean that in a derogatory way) I was raised on Sydneys north shore (Pymble) and married a man from Campbelltown (back in the 70’s) at first my parents were horrified but ended up absolutely loving him, his integrity, his work ethic, his honesty, and the fact he treated me like gold and was a fantastic father. Funny thing is my parents (Mum especially) picked up a lot of his expressions and wasn't shy to use them.
I shouldn't be so picky, but it is blokes not ''bloaks''.
As an Australian, I find it's mainly older people of English descent who still care about 'class'. My street is made up of people of all occupations - from Doctors to supermarket workers. The older tradie is probably the wealthiest of all, lol. I love that there's no class crap here.

Northwestern american here, everyone around me can't understand a word but I can. Idk why but I can. The trick is to just not focus on understanding it. Subconsciously understand it.

I thought exactly the same thing. It sounds almost like a U.S. accent in a certain way.

Daniel is a legend. What a great storyteller and a good bloke! By the way, no expletives or swear words. Amazing. This is for a national TV interview, mate. As a first-generation migrant to Australia, I have no problem at all. Anyone who speaks or has learned to speak English in Australia can handle this interview. Australian English speakers, regardless of where they live, all do a bit of code-switching unconsciously and effortlessly between roughly speaking three varieties of Australian English (broad 'Stralian (like Dainiel on the video), relaxed Australian English (spoken with friends and family members when socialising - e.g., sports commentators on TV), and Standard Australian English (doing presentation at the workplace, etc., e.g., Donna Parkes' announcement on Japanese Shinkansen - ); perhaps not all Australian English speakers are fluent speaking three types but only one variety but we all understand them all. I can't entirely agree with the characterisation of a very broad Australian as "uneducated" or "lower class" speech, though. No one has the right to make fun of a broad Australian English (Nahyeah, I find the chuckle and the presenters' reactions a bit, eh, distracting). You must have lived the experience of growing up with it to speak it fluently.
Nahyeah I totally get that.
This was very entertaining.
I look forward to your next video.

“Jocks” is short for Jockets which was a brand of underwear back in the 70s. It is like when English people say “hoover the carpet” because Hoover was one of the first brand of vacuum cleaners. He is a great example of how being open, honest and respectful can cross so called class boundaries.
Back in the 70s my mother used to say she was going to electrolux the carpet. Electrolux was the brand of “hoover” she used. We never found it weird. Trouble is, I can’t think what this appliance actually should be called. I live in the Netherlands now and they call it a “stofzuiger”; literally a dust sucker!
Edit: you already said it is a vacuum cleaner, I should pay better attention, and of course I already knew that!
