    I was born in Brisbane and left when I was one. Dad was a shearer and took us out west to Blackall and later Mt Isa so I guess my accent is basicaly rural working class Australian.

    Some have said I have a Queensland accent but I do nto think there are really state accents in Australia. It is more a broad country accent and a broad city accent with of course some variation for social class but I do not think these subtleties are detected by most, at least by most EFL learners.

    We could post the same dialogue with different speakers using different accents which would be a good way to tune our students in„ÄÄto varieties of English and to raise the flag of English as an international neutral medium of communication rather than the vehicle of any imperialistic notion of US or Brit, or any other culture. „ÄÄ
