Shortcut To An Authentic Australian Accent

25 August 2011

I wanted to post but I had nothing good to say. My homie George (who I’ve been drinking with all day) suggested I let you all know about this cool trick: if you replace the letter “o” with the letter “i” in most words, you sound totally Australian!

Take the word “rope” for example. Switch the “o” out for an “i” and give it that Aussie twang, so when you say “ripe” you sound MAD AUSTRALIAN!

George, the keeper of this excellent secret, is one half of a really cool group called Javelin. You can check out their music and videos and music videos here.
