Product Overview

Australian English is taking the world by storm! Never before have we heard so many Australians speaking openly in their native language. Australians can be seen chasing wild animals as the Croc Hunter, fighting gladiators as Maximus, protecting mutants as Wolverine, getting angry as the Hulk, fighting Greeks as Hector, becoming the Princess of Denmark or even having a few beers with their mates as Crocodile Dundee.

And the one thing all these Aussies have in common? They speak Australian!

So, what does Steve Irwin mean when he says, “Crikey!”, “Strewth!” or “Fair Dinkum!”? Does “G’day” just mean hello? Up until now there has been no way to find out other than by spending time in Australia itself. However, with The Aussie English CD, you’ll be able to understand Australians and speak to them in their own language quicker than you can say, “You little beauty!”.

Designed for people who already speak English, The Aussie English CD immerses the user in Australian English through a series of hilarious interactive animations that explore the four cornerstones of Australian life: the Barbie, the Beach, the Outback and the Pub.

As well as learning by watching Bruce and his mates enjoy their Aussie adventures (which can be subtitled in standard English), you also get to help them decide what to say, as well as play games designed to reinforce all things Aussie.

There’s also an interactive Aussie dictionary, over 30 tutorials that explain core Aussie language and cultural concepts (like when you should “shout” an Aussie a beer!), as well as hundreds of phrases that let you improve your Aussie accent by comparing it to that of a native speaker.

It also makes a great gift!
