We were discussing how Americans sometimes think the Brits sound like Australians and how Canadians take offense at being referred to as American... and how Australians and New Zealanders (sp?!) don't like to be confused biggrin

So try all of those accents out loud. Then try saying 'Australia' in an 'American' accent... laugh we are finding that tricky! Without it turning Australian!

No, at home smile

I lived in the US for a while though so the accent comes quite naturally.

Try saying 'we surrender' in a French accent.

Rolls off the tongue so easily.
