Australian English by garNele05

There are three varieties of English, the British English, the American English and the
Australian English. They are very different for example the pronunciation or the
spelling. Today I will show you the differences and other facts about Australia.
Australian English is a non-rothic language. This means that even though there is an
“r” in the spelling of a word, it is not always pronounced. A lot of cases “r” is omitted
after a vowel. British English is also a non-rothic language, but American English is
mostly rothic.
The t-flap is when an intervocalic is usually pronounced /r /, for example “better”
transcribed with the International Phonetic Alphabet looks like /bera/.Then another
point, is that in Australian English are many Hypocoristics. It is very similar to clipping
a word. The Australians take the final syllable of a word away and sometimes they
add another suffix, for example journalist=journo.
In Australia you also will hear some Aboriginal words. These are borrowed from
Aboriginal languages because they often indentify significant items, for example
kylie-boomerang or didgeridoo-long wooden musical wind instrument.
But Australia is not interesting because they have a special variety of English but
rather the country is interesting. There are many Natural Sights in Australia like great
rainforests, deserts, the bush or the famous Great Barrier Reef. Also lots of animals
live there for instance colourful fishes, koalas, kangaroos, emus, snakes or toxic
spiders.
All in all is Australia a very beautiful country and continent in my opinion. You should
not have respect for the Australian English because now you have the important
information to speak with Australians.
