#Australia #Australian #Aussie
We have a patriotic song and the chorus goes “we are one but we are many and from all across the lands we come. We sing a song and sing with one voice, I am, you are, we are Australians”. I love this song, it is so relevant to the diversity and unity of our country
@@Anonnnnomus “patriotic song”
That’s our national anthem you dingus /j
I like "I still call Australia home" more :)
The thing with vegemite is that we eat it from an early age .. babies that are old enough to hold and chew food are given vegemite on toast
I'm an Aussie and at 61 years old have never lived in a house where we locked the doors. A big part of that is where I lived, but even in suburban Melbourne (most of my life) I have never felt the need. I have been in my current house for about 5 years and have zero idea where my house keys are.
What’s your address?
@@samsomething298 Easier for you to just go next door. As my grandfather said "locks only keep innocent people out"
Lol this is so funny to a Australian
Yeh'hey it's gold 😂
Am I the only one who is annoyed by the way he says cordial, (like cord drill)
Overall funny tho
@@masterjvc2910 Ye haha
@@masterjvc2910 uhuh yeh' I dunno why yanks speak American.
Yeh fukn Uno I dunno.
English is very basic here in our parts.
Dun ya' reckon?
'cor' 'dee' 'all'
It's always been corgigal'
No one screws with our cotties!
Cause my dad picks the fruit that goes into the 'cordeall'
That I love best
This first guy does some great accents. As an Australian, I'm usually cringing when Americans try to do our accent, but I've got to give this guy kudos for his efforts.
Glasses is an interesting guy. 17 months in a remote Aboriginal community 'aint easy.
but so worth it
Pretty cool that he got to experience that though.
He knows more about the real Australia than most of us city-centric types. And he isn't an Aussie.
Been living here for 18 years and never encountered poisonous spider or snake lol..
All five of you are totally correct, Australia is a lovely place, the people are nice and laid back, and the food is wonderful, I always gain a few pounds when I visit (especially eating the meat pies and pastry). Remember to drive on the left hand side - and the round-abouts are way better then stop lights for sure - it makes traffic flow easier and faster. When I was growing up I always dreamed of visiting Australia, and when I did with my family, we were not disappointed for sure - it was a great visit, especially when we had friends to show us around. If you go please visit outside of Sydney, the country is almost as big as the U.S. We visited LDS wards while we were there, the church is the same no matter where you go - the members are wonderful. You should go and take a nice long vacation, at least 2 weeks. Enjoy!
Do you know where you went in Australia?
Squash and Pumpkin here in Australia are two different vegetables
Marmite is English not Australian
Red back spiders are very recluse easiest way to stay away from one is if moving things that have been pilled up for a period of time like timber/lumber firewood is use gloves and or don’t just stick your fingers under things to pick them up , they hide out of sight, funnel web spiders , in 50 years living in Sydney as far as I know I have never seen one
Fair dinkum or dinky-di both mean honest & real.
The 12 apostles are rock features in an area that is accessed along the great ocean road , west from the city of Geelong south west of Melbourne Victoria it is spectacular
The way he says "cordial"...
corjal!
@@michellewestlake6766 Exactly. He mixing it up with a totally different meaning of the word!
@@Ken.Howard sure is!
The Tassie devil's jaw strength comes from weak back legs. A muscle that would normally travel from the hips down the back goes all the way up to the jaw from the hips. That's why it is so strong.
I believe the "shrimp on the barbie" thing came from a Paul Hogan tourist ad years ago. They changed prawn to shrimp for the ad as they said Americans would not know what a prawn was. And somehow that phrase has stuck. Annoys us a bit, but not a big issue.
We don't call it shrimp. We call them prawns. AFL is far more prevalent than rugby.
Thanks for your kind words friends.
I left Hawaii one week ago. The night I left I was bitten by a spider on the throat and an itchy lump broke out. Australians live on average about 30 months longer than Americans. Clearly Australia is safer/healthier than the US.
Kangaroos have similar reactions to crossing roads as rabbits in that once they’re confronted by headlights they freeze on the spot, people don’t realise that they’re frozen and expect them to move. They won’t move so if possible go around ‘em. Vegemite is a yeast extract and not the same properties as yeast.
When he said bean ice cream... Does he mean vanilla bean???
No, the Chinese and many other Asian cultures only eat beans as a dessert. They often sell bean ice cream at Asian dessert places in Sydney. Many of these guys spend a lot of time with various immigrant groups.
Only Melbourne has the cup day off
Americans are different to us. It is not a strange thing. Americans are really optimistic. Australians are only some what optimistic. The light is half bright. The english are pessimistic. We are somewhere in the middle.
Anzac day is commemorating a battle in 1915, WW1. Wombats are called bulldozers of the bush. Melbourne has the second largest population of Greeks in the world.
meat pies are a single serve , savoury pastry mince meat or chunky beef with a stew like gravy filling , the best ones have a mash potato top instead of a layer of pastry
for a second mate i had no idea what you were saying but its core-di-ul
The Melbourne cup is a horse race for horses that are the same age as horses that compete in the Kentucky derby , it’s for 3 years or older horses
Idk why Americans keep referring to spiders as poisonous, even though they are venomous
Americans speak with a lot of energy, we don't. When you're trying to copy someone's accent you raise the energy level & you're already higher in energy. To do an Australian accent you need to lose energy because we're lazy.
Except when it involves football ;)
Laidback
Anzac stands for ( Australian New Zealand army corp) the Anzac acronym was from ww1, the saying ( the Anzac spirit ) is basically giving all you got and not giving up looking after your mate’s/ fellow soldiers, doing what’s needed to be done in any situation, and a digger is a slang reference for a returned service man/woman from ww1 and ww2 but I’m pretty sure it is a reference to all returned service men and women
Corned beef is a cheap cut of beef brisket that is cured/cooked for a long time in large rock salt
Never seen a durian in Oz - more likely in Indonesia.
Spiders are venomous not poisonous.
The plover is a nasty bird when it’s nesting not when there not , we get them in my backyard
I was told by people over there that rugby union is played a lot in university’s in the United States , rugby league is a different game , actor russell Crowe owns a rugby league team the south Sydney rabbits, AFL is a different game again referred to as Aussie/ozzy rules , rugby union is shortened to union , rugby league is shortened to league , AFL is AFL or Aussie rules
Where did the last guy serve in straya. Eating ants and grubs... didn't even know that they did that in central Australia.
I remember an excursion for primary school where an aboriginal guide showed us what grubs you can eat and of course being kids we all tried one but it hasn't crossed my mind since then.
Bushtucker mate. Remote communities are a completely different world.
In Far North Queensland we eat green ants and I've eaten witchery grubs
sure they do - honey ants and maku (witchetty grubs). a lot of work to dig them out of that hard ground.
Aussie rules and Gaelic football are very similar as it was a game played buy Irish immigrants in australia in the mid 1800’s
"Fair dinkum" literally translates as "honestly". Including as an exclamation.
Pavalova is egg Whites base
fair dinkum is basically "for real?"
Watch Crocodile Dundee movie before coming out here
Your Awsome mate
HEY if you are a yank you are more than welcome in our beautiful brown land. cause we luv ya .
Lmao hearing him talk about Durian makes me laugh.
The red rock sand is iron ore. Cairns is the same as Darwin in the wet season. They're tropical & in the jungle.
Outback roos/kangaroos are big. Beware, that can be dangerous.
The line is, "She'll be right mate".
It’s not healthy to feed birds our bread
Great video,l think you have to grow up with Vegemite, everybody likes to spread it to there own taste,l really love how Americans like our beautiful country..
It's not a good idea to encourage cockatoos to come to your house. They are constantly chewing to keep their beaks short and can chew through wood. They'll chew through window frames and ledges they sit on, and destroy your house.
I love tail too.🤣
Ask an Australia great about our country and you’d be hard pressed to get a cogent answer. This should be played in schools
Durians are an Asian fruit. Dinkin-di means something is genuine.
Tasmania is known in Australia for getting no sunlight
I heard that 'Fair Dinkum' has Chinese origins, coming from the immigrants in the 1800's.
"gday mate" #loveAustralia
I liked the 4th bloke embracing the first Aussies
How dare an American attempt to teach us how to speak english!
Sydney is NOT Australia. You missed THE best city which is Perth 🙂
Ironically there called rainbow lorikeets doh
Last guy talking about all the dogs around the community. Wonder if he realises they would have been dingoes.
A gerbil& a dog, really? Size of a dog like a bulldog but more solid.
Ummmmmmmmm, tazy devil from the cartoons is supposed to be a joke towards the Australian language. Some people say he is the peak of racism.....
God Bless the USA. Without u guys we would struggle to not be invaded by China🤣
Your Aussie accent is great.
