即使在国内学过很长时间的英语，或者去过英、美等说英语的国家，您还是可能会对澳大利亚的英语感到不适应。澳大利亚的英语既不同于美式英语，跟英格兰和爱尔兰使用的英语也不太一样。最初，语言的不适应可能会令您不安，但过上两三天，也就习惯了。
  澳大利亚人说话时，嘴唇连动都不动，这种倾向越靠内陆越强。有一种说法是——为了防止苍蝇飞进去。且不论其真伪，我们让事实说话：“ei”的音，澳大利亚人读“ai”；而“ai”就变成“oi”了。虽然也是美国式的卷舌音，但是“R”的音就是发不出。拼写方式是英式的，尤其在美式、英式不同时，用英式的拼法。例如：美式的 theater，在澳大利亚被拼为theatre；另外，澳大利亚人也用lift来代替elevator。此外，三个音节以上的单词也慢慢修正成省略式。
  若要举例，无穷无尽，但不必为此担心。虽然没有能超过语言的交流，但可以手势和表情等肢体语言来配合交流，因为“语言只不过是交流的工具”。还有一个可以轻松的理由是，澳大利亚有许多国家的移民，比如有母语不是英语的意大利人、黎巴嫩人，他们的英语已经被接受了；所以中国人特有的腔调也会被理解的，不用担心。

　　对澳大利亚特有的英语感兴趣的人，可以买一本澳大利亚英语辞典The Macquarie Dictionary带回去。硬皮简明辞典的价格约在20澳元左右；平装版和硬皮的衣袋型小辞典的价格约在10澳元左右，各种都有，这是在澳大利亚之外的地方很难买到的。
