    Default Australian accents



    Most common accent for younger Australians, especially in cities and suburban areas.


    I think the accents in this video are more common amongst the older generation Australians. Also, I noticed when I was growing up, some Anglo friends had grandparents with mixed British-Australian accents.


    Greek Australian accent


    Italian Australian accent, although this guy has a very broad wog accent I'd say.


    Typical Asian Australian accent.

    What do you think of these accents?

    Sounds slightly Paraguayan at parts as you might expect.
