    Description

    Learn Australian English by listening as I interview Simon Roper, a British polyglot with a fascination for Old English languages.

    In this episode, we talk about how migration affects language. Listen to examples of loan words, words adopted from a foreign language with little or no modification, and how they evolved into the English words we know today!

    G’day and welcome to the Aussie English podcast. I’m Pete Smissen and my objective here is to teach you guys the English spoken down under. Whether you plan to travel, to work or to live in Australia or you just have an interest in our culture, history and spoken dialect of English. You have come to the right place. And whether you aim to speak English like a true blue Aussie or you just want to be able to understand “what the flippin’ hell we’re on about when we’re havin’ a yarn”. You have come to the right place. If you listen to this podcast you will learn: • A ton of Aussie slang and vocabulary, • Heaps of terms and expressions, • And a bunch about Australian history and culture. So kick back, grab a cuppa and enjoy Aussie English!
