I checked the store today and it was almost all gone. IDK if its because people here are taking stuff to NC and other areas affected by Hurricane Helene.
While some Australian speakers would pronounce “no” as a diphthong, starting on “oh” as in dog and ending on “oo” as in put, others begin with an unstressed “a” (the sound at the end of the word “sofa”), then move to the “oh” and then “oo”.
It would be really interesting to know why Australians have such difficulty with language. I've been curious about that for many years.
For example, why would supposedly 'manly' biker gang members be okay with the implication they're fem-boys when Australians call them bikies. Do they really wear pink tutu leathers? A biker growls. A bikie lisps with a limp wrist.
what the hell is that gibberish. no is used. nah is used. what the fuck is this noooooooaaaaaaaah thing being described?
i mean im a bit of a weird one as im dual national with two english parents whose lived in south yorkshire which leads to some odd accents when im talking quietly and i have a habit of using yorkshire 'aye' (which comes across as 'are') for yes, 'owt and nowt' for anything and nothing and there are quite literally three ways of pronouncing 'bottle' in my family 'boddle (me) bott-le (nana) and bo-le (dad)'
i know very few people who sound like they stepped off the set of 'Housos' but my normal accent (and a lot of people with my background) is definitely not the same as full on bogan drawl australian english... fuck, living in the UK with the ex watching neighbours gave me an absolute headache because not being around other aussies any more everything sounded exxagerated as fuck... while there is an ep of 'come dine with me' in london with a complete bogan aussie and some upper class london twat hating on him for sounding 'pretentious' which was funny as all fuck.
'why australians have difficulty with language'
we have the same questions about american 'english' - finna what?
we dont refer to bikies as fem boys. we refer to them as fucking drug pushing scum. as for whether they wear tu tu leathers, well we have this yearly thing called the 'toy run' where 1% bikies pretend to be good people and do a toy drive for christmas wear they wear dumb shit like elmo helmet covers, butterfly wings, and probably the tutus which strangely fit very well for something bought for a laugh once a year...
edit - HANGON... I KNOW WHAT THIS SOUNDS LIKE - it was a fuckin character from a tv show called 'Full Frontal' in the 90s, he was a stereotypical wog gangster.... except we legit had them in melbourne and gangiatano didnt sound anything like it but anyway, and thats what youre refering to, the whole shtick for him was an audience member in a parody of the "Ray Martin Show" (Eric Banas first TV repeat character) and he would yell out "NAAAAAAW RAAAAAAAAAAY" in a raspy voice and start threatening him.... so could be a greek/italian aussie thing, not general aussie. same show would have Kitty Flanagan heckle him as a hippy interrupting to recite a poem 'she just wrote' - Nimbin, my Nimbin. Nimbin. Yeah, Nimbin. and sit down again. cant fucking find any of them anywhere online except facebook. Fucking peak aussie comedy too. Ernie Dingo actually playing a stereotypical abo scaring people away from auctions by threatening 'corobborees' next door then buying inner city homes for 'a rusty ford falcon'
go away and figure out how to pronounce nuclear, aluminium, and learn the difference between 'could' and 'could not care less'
im not asshurt, i have absolutely no fucking idea what so ever what it is youve heard, from where, where someone saying 'no' has come across as ... whatever youre trying to say here. maybe it could be explained but that thing is neither a word nor sound used in place of a word. maybe its a desert nigger thing?
