lol you one of those general cunts?
>>
>>56166625
Cultivated and Broad are the best, General accents usually sound quite American
>Generals usually pronounce literally as lidderally (likes seppos) instead of the correct litcherally
>Military as Mili-tare-ree instead of the correct Mili-tree
etc.

General is usually spoken by Sydneysiders and Melburnians while Broad is spoken by most Queesland, NT and Western Australians, while Cultivated is spoken by most South Australians

I bet you also say "cassle" instead of "cah-sil" for the word castle.

It sounds gay AF btw
>>
>>56170359
I pronounce it carsul

South Aussies use /aː/ (as in bath) not /æ/ (as in trap)
>>
Ok, but what's the big deal about an accent?
>>
>>56170461

>>56170553

I guess I have heard so many over time I lost concern over it. As long as I could make out what they were saying anyway.

>Dahnce

>>
>>56170628
>darnce
That is how I pronounce it.

inferior non-South Aussies pronounce it the faggy American way

Australians don't have cultivated accents

Here's what a real cultivated accent sounds like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9ELft_WCb4
Please note the crude British accent as compared to the clear and patrician American transatlantic accent, which immediately connotes erudition and education. The crude British squealing is how Australians sounds to Americans
>>
>>56170715

The only American accent I've hear that sounds educated is that old Southern one that pronounces words like where with a H sound at the front

>mfw I HAVE a cultivated accent

Growing up inner city middle-upper class sure was nice
>>
General accents are for fucking scum.

Give be broad or cultivated and stop pussyfooting about.

Utter shit-tier: west sydney/ inner melbourne
>>
>>56171228
Just makes you sound like you're trying too hard to sound like a brit bong

But ok m80 :^)
>>
>>56171228
posh cunt wannabe
>>
Who here adjusts theirs depending on the social situation?

Business & formal: cultivated
Beers with the boys: broad
At home: general
>>
>>56171331
Yeah somewhat.

Shit posting and with friends it's pretty bogan-tier. When interacting with the employees at the shop or something it becomes pretty "cultivated"
>>
>>56171331
Mines basically cultivated all the time except for when I'm giving mates the banter, then its super fuckin bogan
>>
>>56171367
I find it almost impossible (unless im with poms) to not use broad australian when drunk

I also find that regional accents are developing quickly. You can hear the difference between Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Qld and even differences in suburb in major cities

You're all fucking shits and your best export is a Bloomin' Onion, even if you didn't invent that

>>56171483
I talk to a Canadian often and I find myself speaking a bit more clearly and refined for their benefit. Sometimes I just go into a big word slur and have been accused of going "full Australian" and I have to repeat what I say.
>>
>>56171331

"Posh" accent is my normal one but I become a lot more Kiwi around my mates
>>
>>56171483
The only time I went broad Australian was when I got in a fight. I didn't mean to, it was just instinctive
