As a teacher of English as a Second Language, I have seen hundreds upon hundreds of people from all over the world and from all cultures grapple with the Aussie ways. They have all unwittingly contributed to this book. "I wish I'd had Aussie English and Culture by Luke Zimmerman when my Australian husband decided to pack up our little family and move back home to Australia!

"Are you sure they speak English here?"Having just arrived in Australia, I couldn't understand anything. As a teacher of English as a Second Language, I have also seen hundreds upon hundreds of people from all over the world and from all cultures grapple with Australian English and our Aussie ways. This book is a culmination of their, and my, views and reactions."I wish I'd had Aussie English and Culture by Luke Zimmerman when my Australian husband decided to pack up our little family and move back home to Australia! I'd grown up there, but left at 11 years of age. Returning as an adult, I suffered a year of culture shock, something that Aussie English and Culture might have relieved.But for those planning to visit Australia, or even more so, contemplating moving there, it would be advisable to invest in a copy of Aussie English and Culture. Read it while you're en route, so that when you start being introduced to Aussies, you don't ask what they would consider nosey questions. Unlike North Americans, Aussies keep their private lives private. And they don't like hype. I found that out the hard way, and after reading Luke Zimmerman's book, I now realize why so many Aussies often found my natural exuberance and enthusiasm just "too much." Luke Zimmerman points out cultural differences like that, along with supplying readers with lists of Aussie expressions and slang words one needs to understand just what the heck the Aussies are saying. Zimmerman has packed a lot of "what you need to know" into this very short book. He does it with a chuckle and a lot of love for his adopted country. He speaks of "our slang," "our accent." "Reviewed by Viga Boland for Readers' Favorite"Luke Zimmermann has quite a way with words. Academic, anecdotal, practical and personal, Aussie English & Culture is an interesting and insightful volume."Michael Jacobson, Gold Coast Bulletin

Welcome to G'day, mate!, a short course in Australian English and culture. G'day, mate! is a course book for foreign students on tour groups or study tours to Australia, but is also suitable as complementary material for General English courses for overseas students or migrants. It is aimed at Pre-intermediate level; however, since many activities can be adapted to different levels, G'day, mate! is suitable for Elementary to Intermediate levels. This course book was written to help foreign students and migrants from all nationalities learn to cope with Australian English and Australian culture. It includes notes and information about Australian English, culture and places that would be superfluous for Australian teachers. However, I have regularly worked with teachers from other English-speaking countries who were not familiar with Australia. The extra information is for their benefit. G'day, mate! includes the following sections: - Useful Aussie English - Cultural notes - Tasks G'day, mate! is not meant to be a complete textbook. It is recommended you supplement it with units from your favourite grammar book, a pronunciation course, Australian English listening and your other favourite material.

English is a living language which is constantly changing. "Understanding Australian English: An Essential Guide to Understanding Aussies and being Understood by Aussies in Australia. Australian Slang Explained" explores and explains the uniqueness of Australian English. Words which may be offensive in some English speaking cultures are sometimes used by Aussies in an affectionate way with their mates. Very often the contexts in which words are spoken are much more important than the words themselves. Aussies use of hyperbole and their very Australian sense of humour is reflected in their colloquialisms. You will learn and understand more about Aussies after reading this book. This publication is 178 pages in length, and the informative text is punctuated with Aussie photos which have been taken by the Author. In addition to the printed book, there is also a version available as an e-book.

Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: This paper is about linguistic imperialism and linguistic ecology in respect of the indigenous languages of Australia. The linguistic complexities in Australia are immense, as are the fields of research of linguistic imperialism and linguistic ecology. Neither is the research in the fields mentioned above terminated nor has the development in Australia reached an end. As a result, the paper is only able to provide a snapshot. The first chapter serves as an introduction. The reader should familiarize her-/ himself with the history and culture of a people, which is unique and distinct from any other civilization. It refers to the initial settlement of the Australian continent, as well as it touches in short specific traits of Aboriginal culture. Answers are provided to questions like, 'What is language?', 'What are the characteristics of Aboriginal languages and Aboriginal English?' Linguistic imperialism will be discussed in chapter two. From what point on can a relationship between any given subjects be called, in its widest meaning, imperialistic? The chapter refers to Galtung (1980), whose observations are still valid today and gives a historical overview of the rise of the English language from a European Germanic language spoken on the British Islands to a global language, especially focusing on the development in the 19th and 20th century. Linguistic ecology is a rather new field of research in linguistics. Chapter three reflects on a research orientation which developed in the 1960s and 1970s due to Haugen, who gave the term ecology a linguistic meaning. It tries to show the parallels between biodiversity and cultural/ linguistic diversity and why it has become so important to be aware that not only plants and animals are seriously endangered and need special protection, but also languages. Additionally, other fields of interest of language ecology are introduced in the chapter. The last chapter deals with the impact European settlement had on indigenous language variety, and the problems contemporary Australian society is confronted with. Australia's language policy will not only be outlined in regard of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander's native tongue, but also in regard of community languages. Which possibilities has the Australian government to deal with the problem and which language maintenance efforts have been called into action so far? Inhaltsverzeichnis:Table of [...]

Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Speech Science / Linguistics, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: The paper gives an overview of the Australian English language. Australian English is the dialect spoken by native Australians or young immigrants to Australia. English in Australia is a much wider term than Australian English in that it includes both the varieties of migrant communities and the varieties of Aboriginal communities. Even though Australian English is a regional dialect that has the phonemic inventory of Southern British English it is the dominant variety in Australia while Aboriginal and Ethno-cultural varieties are minority varieties. Australian English developed alongside Australian history and culture, and thus it is highly connected with the creation of the Australian identity.
