I can hear the Australian come out in certain words, but your accent is very Americanised. when you said "nobody believes me" in the first sentence it was Aussie, but when you said "middle of nowhere" in the second it was very American.

Fellow Aussie, I can hear it, but only just. Especially when you said Aussie. Get that Home and Away on! Watch some Neighbors!

Girl, me too! I used to work at a call centre, and I'd have 40-year-old British people telling me I wasn't from here. "Screaming inside, I was born here, and you immigrated."

Thanks, but I'm making it sound more dramatic than it was. It was funny but frustrating xD Just being told by people that I sound American and "No, you're not from here." was crazy xD Nice to see more Vtubers from here at home, keep it up.

OMG GURL SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I consumed A LOT of British, and American media so my voice ends up pivoting to British a lot (because of the mouth placement) so I end up with a british intonation but saying it like an Aussie. I feel ya OTL

As a fellow Aussie, I’ve been told the same with having an American accent, ironically my brother has the opposite issue and has a British accent (also Aussie)

In my opinion You have a few little Australianisms in your accent that only a fellow Aussie can pick up on

I’m the same.. people keep saying I sound British, and for some reason if I say the word “British” it sounds like it’s in an accent

Literally so real, I’ve been told by Australians I’ve got an American accent, been told by Americans I have an Australian accent, and I literally can’t tell which accent I’ve actually got besides randomly turning Scottish from time to time

I've heard a lot of mixed things so it's really interesting to see what people can and can't hear in my voice! You're just like me in that I don't hear any Aussie in my voice

I can faintly hear a bit of an Aussie accent... probably because I'm in a slightly similar situation, where I consumed way too much American TV as a kid, so I've been told I have a slightly blended Aussie/American accent

minor tinge of aussie, also suffer the same problem and always have to explain that i lost my accent, for me it was talking to too many americans online (And oddly enough, speaking TOO clearly is not very aussie)
