提起澳洲，你首先会想到什么？是成群结队的绵羊美丽的自然风光，还是著名的悉尼歌剧院……地球那一边有着怎样的美好，你是不是也很想一探究竟呢？同样是英语母语国家，但是和澳洲人交流，他们的英语口音也很独特，今天要为大家揭秘澳式发音

1. “I”→“OI”

元音[ai]读成[oi]

Eg: fight, night, bike

2. “AY”→“AI”

[ei]读成[ai]

play, mate, day, grape, Australia

Today is a good day.

澳大利亚口音读：To die is a good die.

3. Drop the T, R, G

What, rat, together,butter, dancing, doing

4. 非常喜欢 [ɑ]

“super”, “after”, “dinner”, “order”

都变成

“supah”, “aftah”, “dinnah”, “ordah”

5. Everything is a question

It’s cold outside.

Tell me what you think.

关于澳洲人的英语表达，则是将简短进行到底，可以说非常粗旷了，一起来看看吧~

1. Cuppa=a cup of tea

和英国一样，在澳大利亚喝茶也是很普遍的日常活动，想象你邀请朋友来喝茶，在英式英语里的对话应该是这样的：

-Hello Harry, how are you?

-Hello Bill. I’m fine. How are you?

-Very good thanks. I was just calling to see if you would like to come over for a cup of tea?

-That sounds great. I’ll be there in 15 minutes.

在澳大利亚，

这段对话可能就变成了：

-G’day mate!

-G’day.

-Would ya like to pop around for a cuppa?

-Sure, mate. See ya in 15.

2. Macca’s = McDonald’s

3. Arvo = Afternoon

对澳大利亚人发出3个音节太麻烦，2音节更好,更快,更容易…

Wanna come over this arvo?

– Would you like to come over this afternoon?

Whatcha doin’ this arvo?

– What are you doing this afternoon?

4. Facey = Facebook

5. Prezzie = present

总结一下，澳洲英语的缩词方式主要有两种：把单词后面的几个单词换成o，或去掉后面一些字母，用ie代替，但请注意！这只是澳新英语的口语表达，书写中，语法和拼写规则还是要遵守的，尤其是在考试中。
