American vs. British vs. Australian English | One Language, Three Accents

One Language, Three Accents! In this video, we're showing you the differences between American English, British English, and Australian English. First, we'll show you the difference between an American accent, a British accent, and an Australian accent by reading some simple words that are spelled the same in every country. Then, our native speakers will say different words that have the same meaning. And finally, our American, British, and Australian speakers will say words that sound the same, and have the same meaning, but are spelled differently.

Have an idea for a future video? Is there another language that could be used to show "One Langauge, Three Accents"? Let us know in the comments below!

I grew up in Singapore and moved to Canada when I was 19 to attend university, and I was absolutely lost when the locals didn't understand the words I used. E.g. spectacles, queue, lift, car park, roundabout, traffic junction... And I thought I wasn't learning the proper English until I realized that English has evolved so much in the past hundreds of years.

I am a Japanese who makes ends meet as a translator. I love English very much though I have never lived anywhere in the Anglosphere. Actually I saw Julie Andrews acting and singing in The Sound of Music decades ago, which sparked my interest in English. I have loved it since then.

Originally I was interested in British English
but I love all kinds of English now. After all these three people speak the very same language with some differences in words and usage. My English has been somewhat Americanized over the last few decades (I am now 48 and I, like most of my Japanese peers of my generation, started learning
English when I became a junior high school student in Japan). I hope I can still love English as both a tool for my job and a language. Thanks a lot!

The U. S. Navy term for underwear is "skivvies", for a door it's "hatch", for a window it's "portal", for the bathroom it's "head",
and for a kitchen it's "galley"!

As a Latino living in Mexico I am 100% with the American accent, because it is the closest thing to us and we are more used to hearing it. I once met an Australian girl and it was very difficult to understand what she was saying to me

American: "Missal"
British: "Missile"
Australian: "Missile"
