[00:01.40]Australian English
[00:03.55]Australian English began in 1788
[00:05.91]when the first British prisoners
[00:07.64]were sent away to Australia
[00:09.39]as punishment.
[00:11.10]For fifty years, Australia was one big prison.
[00:14.23]The Australian accent was heavily
[00:16.05]influenced by Cockney,
[00:17.94]as there were large numbers
[00:19.01]of working class Londoners
[00:20.72]who were transported to Australia
[00:22.94]for the crimes.
[00:24.13]Australian English still has Cockney phrases
[00:27.11]and expressions and is also distinctive
[00:29.57]because of the Aboriginal words
[00:31.74]that have come into the language-
[00:33.37]words like "kangaroo" and "boomerang".
[00:37.54]New Zealand English
[00:39.59]New Zealand English started in 1840,
[00:42.68]with the treaty between the British
[00:44.32]and the Maoris in New Zealand.
[00:46.70]This began the colonization of the two islands
[00:50.41]New Zealand English sounds very similar
[00:52.81]to Australian English,
[00:54.47]but uses more British words
[00:56.18]and expressions and has borrowed words
[00:58.73]from the Maoris,
[01:00.16]particularly for the names of flowers and trees
[01:02.79]
