Haha. My aunt tries it every now and then, and someone ends up going "Don't do that in public, okay?"

LOL. It's really bad. It isn't the worst or first time I've heard someone try another accent. A good South African friend of mine once tried to mimic my accent.

Class? Like, English class? Not talking about school. Englishmen always seem to come off as classy or sophisticated. 'Zat what you're talking about?

Struth! Being a bush Aussie I speak with MOST Aussie expressions Amanda. Liken me to a female Crocodile Dundee. Were very easy going people here. Some of them are up the creek in the town though. But...it's summer...it get's hot and I guess some go a bit troppo.
Class?......Liken it in Aussie accent to saying Mars. You know...the planet? If I sat the mule called asssss they'll put little asterisks there. Well, instead of saying the asssss......say.....ars.

Oh, okay. I think I get it. Maybe.

 

[Bevlina]

hehehehe.....NOW I"M TEACHING YOU TO SPEAK AUSSIE????? Hang in there Actress! You're getting quite an education here!!

 

[Miss Mayberry]

Mum said if I can pay for it, I'm welcome to go to college over there.

 

[Miss Mayberry]

Oh my word. I can't believe I just said 'Mum'. Yikes.

 

[Bevlina]

ROFL!!!! Hey Amanda! We're making an Aussie out of you! Yes, you can be an exchange student in Australia. My daughter had a Jap exchange student. I don't think it costs anything really. I think, if I remember rightly, the Government pays. I'll have a look into it, but, we don't want to take you away from home!!!!
The exchange student stays for a year I think. Then goes back home.

 

[Miss Mayberry]

Yeah. Don't think I could stand being away from home for a year.
I am also interested in the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. It's fantastic, except it's in Wales.

 

[Bevlina]

Struth! Do you ever sleep Amanda??????????????????????

 

[Miss Mayberry]

Actually, just woke up. It's 10:30 am.

I was up until midnight last night, though.

 

[Bevlina]

Well...right now it's 5 to 3 A.M. & I can't sleep...*yawn*...better try though huh? Better have someone read me

to snore snores...whaddyareckon?

 

[marduke]

its 2.21am here in brissy... lol you have daylight savings hey?

 

[Wolflily]

Hey gang!

The only Aussie I hear regularly around here is on those loony ads for Outback Steakhouse. They've got a hilarious one for Mother's Day specials that cracks me up every time I hear it on the radio. I always wonder if those are "real" Aussies or just plain old Yanks yukking it up and pulling the wool over everybody's eyeballs. Oh, and when I get around to watching tv every 10 months or so, I have to catch some Crocodile Hunter! That guy is a gas. (except when he's dangling his kid over some croc mouth, that is)

 

[Miss Mayberry]

Haha Wolf, I wonder that, too! Welcome back, by the way!

 

[Bevlina]

its 2.21am here in brissy... lol you have daylight savings hey?

Yep! We're on daylight savings here marduke! The cows don't know about it yet though! Starve the lizards..they come in an hour early to be milked!!!

 

[Miss Mayberry]

You milk the lizards!? Tha's something I've never heard before.

 

[marduke]

hahaha.... you yanks are silly! bevlina was talking bout the cows.

off topic but can you even milk a lizard?!?!?!
