Do you clean your butt with paper or do you clean it with water?
2
That was shocking for me.
3
I was just like, how?
4
There's one on every street corner like a milk bar.
5
All the New South Welshman and Queenslanders are going to get triggered as hell.
6
The taste is going to be something very different from anything you're used to.
7
G'day, you guys.

Pete here.

Welcome to this episode of Aussie English.
10
Today, we're going to be reacting to a video titled 11 weird things
11
I had never seen before coming to Australia from the channel
12
Living Simply Australia.
13
Before we get into it, don't forget you can listen to these episodes on the Aussie English podcast.
14
You can access this for free via any good podcast app.
15
The link for this episode and the podcast will be in the description.
16
The first thing is separate toilets and no bidet.
17
In Australia, many houses are usually designed with the toilets separate from the main bathroom.
18
So, basically, you have a little room just for the toilet and then a bathroom where you wash your hands, you have the mirror, the shower.
19
And that's a good one.
20
We've got both at our house.
21
So, we would have an en suite in our main bedroom and that has everything in there.
22
So, you've got the sink, the toilet and a shower.
23
Then we've got our secondary bathroom and you've got a separate toilet room
24
and the bathroom with a bath and a shower and the sink in it.
25
But we have both.
26
I guess to some degree, it makes sense like that you could go and do number ones
27
and twos while someone else is washing their hands if they're a guest or having a bath or something.
28
Although, what do you do if someone's having a bath
29
and you do ones and twos and you want to wash your hands afterwards
30
if you're a guest at the place you just have to wait i guess
31
or maybe go in with your eyes closed in the ensuite well
32
you just got to get used to doing it in front of your partner this is something super surprising
33
because in my country argentina separate toilets don't exist so
34
when i first came here especially i was living in a share house
35
and yeah i found it very interesting
36
but at the same time again very practical
37
you don't have to wait for your turn to use the toilet you just can go
38
and then another person can have a shower in the separate bathroom
39
i think she mentioned bidets at the start here too she may have said bidets
40
or something but yeah it's a french word we would say bidet i remember
41
that that scene from crocodile dundee where he goes to america
42
and he's stuck in the hotel room he's like some nitwits
43
put two dunnies in here one dunny one bidet bidet his
44
partner at the time just like it's for um after you you um you know you figure it out
45
and as she's walking out of the hotel he yells out the window.
46
Yeah, so they're very uncommon in Australia.
47
We had one once when we were renting a room in Canberra.
48
We were living there and we were living in the old Pakistan embassy.
49
So, there were like 10 bedrooms.
50
This old lady was renting out the entire building to different people living in these different...
51
It was really interesting.
52
I have to tell this story at some point because there were some eclectic units at this place.
53
Anyway, we were living in the main suite
54
and it had its own bathroom and everything with a massive bidet and I remember being like, why?
55
But it's an Islamic thing apparently.
56
So, yeah, anyway, never used it, never used it, it freaked me out.
57
In my country, Argentina, bidets are basically an essential part of the bathroom but yeah, in Australia, they don't exist.
58
I was so surprised that I told my friends about it and they were like, oh, that's disgusting, how come they don't have bidets?
59
Then I told my Aussie friends about the bidets and they find disgusting the fact that we have bidets as well.
60
This is such an interesting one to talk about, right?
61
Because I think there are these two main cultural differences between loads of different countries.
62
Do you clean your butt with paper or do you clean it with water?
63
When I went to Indonesia back in the day, when I was doing my PhD, I did some research in Sulawesi in the jungles.
64
And I remember we were going to a lot of these bathrooms there in Indonesia
65
and they would have just this huge plastic garbage bucket thing with like water in it
66
and a scoop next to the toilet.
67
I was always like, why is there, Are people doing their washing up there?
68
Is that where you wash your hands?
69
Like, what is it for?
70
And I remember the Indonesians that we're working with is just laughing and being like, you wash your bum with it, mate.
71
Like, what are you?
72
And I remember being like, but how?
73
With the trowel?
74
Like, what, you just pour the water over your butt?
75
And he's like, no, you get in there.
76
And I'm like, why would you do that?
77
Like, at least the paper for us, it's like it acts as a barrier.
78
I think Australians would find bidets a bit weird
79
because we're not used to culturally getting wet when we go to the toilet,
80
unless you're a man and you've got particularly bad aim in a powerful stream, then you might be.
81
It would be weird to like clean your butt with a fountain of water,
82
get all wet and have it going everywhere over your backside and then having to use paper to dry your butt anyway.
83
Or do you not dry your butt and you just pull your pants up?
84
But yeah, if I did a poo that was that bad and I needed to wash my bum, I think I would just have a shower.
85
Who's with me, Aussies?
86
Would you do that?
87
The second thing that I found very weird is Vegemite.
88
This is one of the weirdest things that I've come across.
89
You can put on a piece of toast, preparers, sandwiches and everything.
90
Jesus Christ, old mate there was going crazy with it.
91
He was using a lot.
92
The trick with this stuff is to just a little bit goes a long way.
93
The taste is going to be something very different from anything you're used to and anything you're expecting to put on toast.
94
Usually, things that go on toast are typically sweet.
95
Things like honey, syrup or jam.
96
You'll have savory stuff like peanut butter, I guess, but the salty and tangy,
97
really weird flavor of Vegemite is going to catch a lot of people off guard.
98
It's savory.
99
Give it a whirl.
100
It may not be a thing.
101
Everyone here pretty much loves it because we grow up on it.
102
As kids, you don't have to eat it.
103
You can be Australian.
104
You can live here.
105
You can work here and you don't have to eat it.
106
Don't panic if you don't like it.
107
It's fine.
108
Remember the first time that I tried Vegemite?
109
It wasn't actually here in Australia, but it was one year before coming here.
110
I was studying English with an Aussie teacher and I remember that he brought Vegemite for me to try.
111
And at the beginning, when I looked at it, I hadn't tried it yet.
112
When I looked at it, I thought it was yummy because it reminded me of chocolate, right?
113
And then, of course, I gave it a try.
114
He put it on a piece of toast.
115
Basically, you have just to put a bit of butter.
116
Way too much, man.
117
That is so...
118
That's such a little piece of toast for so much Vegemite.
119
He was really, really, really wanting to give this girl a bad time.
120
Basically, you have just to put a bit of butter, then a bit of Vegemite.
121
And I tried it and it was the weirdest thing that I had ever tried in my life.
122
Now, I like it.
123
I don't eat it every day, but I do live with my Aussie partner.
124
And Vegemite is an essential item in the house yeah see
125
look look at the bread over here in the image
126
and you will see there is a lot less on
127
that bread and on the biscuits beside it
128
so just don't go to town with it the first time you try it another thing
129
that caught my attention when i first came to australia is the fact
130
that you won't find alcohol in supermarkets i remember the first time
131
that i went to a supermarket to get a bottle of wine
132
and i spent at least 30 minutes going around just looking for the for the alcohol section right
133
and i just couldn't find it and until i asked
134
and of course i realized
135
that there was a bottle shop outside currently this is a measure
136
that they've taken to limit excessive alcohol drinking i'm sure
137
it works well i'm sure it works well pretty much every supermarket
138
now at least bws i think is a subsidiary
139
or company that's owned by woolworths and
140
so you pretty much always have a woolworths and then the bws
141
or whatever the Coles version of it is beside the supermarket.
142
So, you just have to go into one and then into the other.
143
They're right there.
144
I don't know how much it makes a difference.
145
IGA's, the independent grocers of Australia, is that what it is?
146
They'll typically have it in the same store, at least like you'll have the main store
147
and then quite often they're just right there next to it and you can walk straight into it.
148
Australia is known for having a strong drinking culture
149
and that's why there are high taxes on alcohol
150
and also it seems
151
that that's the reason why they have separate bottle shops
152
we're seeing my country in argentina as well as in many european countries
153
when you go to the supermarket
154
you'll always find the alcohol section right in there we don't have separate bottle shops
155
so that's an interesting difference and something that now i've gotten used to it
156
but yeah it's still a bit weird i think
157
it's just our cultural thing where we have this kind of
158
macho drinking culture from a young age where in it
159
when you're in your teenage years you're sort of expected to with friends go out
160
and get wasted and if you're not you know you're not very blokey
161
or whatever it was really interesting when i went to france
162
when i was a kid i was at school
163
and i went to france on a field trip thing all the french kids didn't really give shit about drinking
164
they would have wine with their parents
165
and they had grown up being surrounded by people drinking responsibly
166
and having a bit of wine with pretty much every meal
167
when we got there you could buy alcohol at 16
168
so all the kids on the trip they just went
169
and unleashed i wasn't a drinker at the time
170
but i remember they were getting soused on the booze
171
that they could buy legally all the french people were like just take
172
it easy man what's what's the deal again i think
173
that it my attention when i first came to australia is the fact
174
that australians place stuff that they don't want on the street outside their home
175
and this practice is called hard rubbish collection
176
and most of these items are usually pieces of furniture
177
or appliances that people put outside their homes for other people to come
178
and pick them up
179
there's sort of two options right the photos the images she's showing seem to be more this is junk
180
that is being
181
so it's going to be collected by the garbos
182
we get two of these a year i think where you can ask the council you have to ring up
183
or email or whatever it is online and organize a hard rubbish pickup
184
and they'll do this twice for you for free on an annual basis where they come around
185
and they pick up all the stuff
186
that they don't want you putting in recycling or in the bin or that are items that are too big.
187
We do mattresses I think separately and then you'll have the hard rubbish
188
which as she shows in the image here it's like you know bits of wood, a chair, all that sort of stuff.
189
You will have this happen where it is just junk like people just pile up rubbish
190
and then you'll have it happen where it is actually like relatively good quality items that people don't want.
191
And they will probably more carefully place these items out for people to pick them up.
192
Another thing that I found very surprising when I first came to Australia is the fact that there are very,
193
very hefty fines for putting your feet on public transport seats.
194
And these fines actually go up to $288 Australian dollars.
195
It's insane.
196
I had never seen that they actually fine you for that.
197
Oh, yes, they definitely will.
198
I've seen this in Melbourne when I was going to uni, getting the trams and the trains and everything.
199
It was a common occurrence that you would see usually a young boy, you know, or bloke, probably in his late teens,
200
putting his feet up on the chair in front of him.
201
Quite often, we have chairs facing one another, and so, you can easily do that.
202
If the ticket inspectors come past and see it, they are quite often pretty irritated about it.
203
One, because it's making the seats dirty, and two, because it can take.. up the seat
204
and you're preventing someone from sitting down on
205
that seat housewarming parties now i remember the first time
206
that i was invited to a gathering here in australia and
207
that was actually a housewarming party and i remember when i got
208
that invitation i was a bit confused
209
because i was like what is a housewarming party
210
i had to google it right again for me this was weird and
211
if you don't know what a housewarming party is it is
212
basically a tradition where you invite your friends to come see your new home basically
213
when you move to a new house you have a gathering with rings finger food etc
214
and you show your friends your new place i feel
215
that it's an excuse to just have a gathering
216
and drink with your mates it's kind of a 50 50 of the years
217
that i've lived in a house that i've either been renting
218
or now own it's probably been about a 50 50 of whether
219
or not i've done a house warming i think this is more of a
220
when you're young and you're renting a place
221
and you you suddenly rent out a new house with friends
222
and you've you're very social at
223
that age anyway then it's probably pretty much any excuse for a get together
224
so i was doing them back then
225
but then once i had a young family and was married
226
and everything i i haven't really bothered doing a housewarming i might be like you know guys come over
227
that we've just moved into a new place
228
but i wouldn't make it a huge event with loads of people okay let's talk about the healthcare system
229
and doctors in australia it really surprised me
230
when i first came here to be honest i was a bit confused in my country in argentina
231
when you're feeling sick you usually go to the specialist directly
232
you go to the gastroenterologist right
233
that's the case in my country whereas here in australia your first point of contact is your gp
234
that's it you would usually go to a gp with any sort of issue
235
and then you get referred to a specialist
236
and i think it probably just helps control the number of people
237
that are going to these specialists so
238
that they don't get clogged up with too many appointments
239
and everything healthcare in australia if you're an australian be either a permanent resident
240
or a citizen
241
and you get free healthcare through a medicare system you can also get private health insurance
242
if you want and there's sort of interesting stuff
243
that happens without tax regarding whether
244
or not you have private health insurance typically health care in
245
australia is high quality though with the amount of recent migration
246
and pressure on the system with lack of funding for these
247
systems to kind of catch up with the number of new migrants arriving in australia there's a lot of strain
248
and stress in the system now another thing that really surprised me
249
when i first came to australia was australian football or 40
250
or ossey rolls or yeah it has
251
so many names you can tell she lives in victoria all the new south welshman
252
and queenslanders are going to get triggered as hell by the fact
253
that she called australian rules football afl uh footy instead of rugby
254
i remember the first time i i was here i got my apartment i turned the tv on
255
and there was a footy match going on for me
256
it was a big surprise to be honest at the time
257
i hadn't even heard about footy yeah it was a mix of rugby and soccer
258
but i wasn't really sure what was going on most of my australian colleagues as well they're super fans of Collingwood, Richmond, Essendon.
259
What I really liked is the family environment.
260
It's very family -oriented.
261
Rivals can sit next to each other.
262
That's one of the things that is really interesting.
263
Australian football culture doesn't tend to be very violent, at least from what I've experienced.
264
You don't have these kind of like rival factions
265
that have to be seated at the opposite ends of the football ground or there'll be a riot with,
266
you know, violent bashings and all that sort of stuff.
267
I mean, I'm sure that sort of stuff happens in isolated events, but compared compared to places like
268
Britain, where you hear about the football hooligans and everything, it's such a weird kind of contrast.
269
You're just like, why would you bash people over them going for a different team?
270
That's so weird.
271
I think you would like AFL if you want a lot of action happening during a game.
272
There's lots more people on the field.
273
The field is a lot bigger.
274
The ball is moving back and forth a lot more and big distances at a time.
275
There's many more points being scored.
276
I think that's why a lot of people like it compared to a game like soccer or football.
277
Traditionally, because there's a lot more scoring that's happening, right?
278
It's common for goals or points to be scored up to, you know, past 100 points in a game.
279
Another thing that surprised me about Australia is the fact
280
that it's compulsory for school kids to always wear some protective hats outside.
281
Of course, the reason for this is that Australia has some of the highest UV levels in the world.
282
So, it's a measure, again, that for me was surprising because when I was in school, I didn't have to wear a hat.
283
It wasn't compulsory.
284
But at the same time, yeah, it makes complete sense.
285
This is something that came in when I was at primary school in the 90s, it was no hat, no play.
286
You had to wear a wide brimmed hat.
287
So, we had that full wide brim around your head.
288
You had to have sunscreen on as well.
289
And a big reason it came through is because the kids that grew up in the 50s,
290
60s, 70s got so much more exposure to sun when they were young.
291
Loads of sunburns.
292
I think my dad said many times that his mom's advice was always go
293
and get sunburned and get a tan so that you won't get sunburned in the future.
294
And it was like great
295
so now my dad has constant little skin cancers popping up on his face
296
that he has to put cream on or have removed surgically
297
and everything because of that amount of uv exposure at a young age
298
so we're very conscious of that in australia and it'll be weird
299
if you go to places like bondi around sydney the number of skin cancer plastic surgeon specialist businesses
300
that are just everywhere
301
that was shocking for me
302
i was just like how there's one on every street corner
303
like a milk bar another thing in relation to the australian school dress code
304
if you want is the fact
305
that school kids have to carry very big bags i was expecting her to say a school uniform that's one
306
that always seems to get people from places like europe france america
307
they're quite often like what you've got like compulsory uniforms you can't just wear casual clothes
308
and it's like no we pretty much every single school will have in fact
309
i think private school every school has some kind of a uniform primary schools secondary schools
310
it's only once you get to university
311
that you get to wear whatever you want there might be the odd day here
312
and there that you have a casual clothes kind of day at school
313
but by and large it's yeah you have to wear a uniform
314
so you see the little seven -year -old carrying a bag that it's almost bigger than them and i don't know
315
it's weird in my opinion carrying a lot of weight at
316
that age probably poses some kind of risk for the kid's posture.
317
I would say it depends on how long they're carrying it, right?
318
If they're walking to school with it on one shoulder
319
and it takes an hour to get there
320
and an hour to get home and they're doing that day after day after day, maybe.
321
But if it's like they're carrying it from their car
322
when they're being dropped off at school into the classroom
323
and then chucking it on a bench or they're carrying it on both shoulders, it's probably fine.
324
I reckon the reason we would use it, especially down here somewhere like Melbourne, is because the weather changes so much.
325
You always need all different types of clothing.
326
You need a jumper just in case it gets cold.
327
You need pants you've got books in there, you've got your lunchbox, pretty much everything is just tossed into this one bag.
328
So, it's probably just the fact
329
that we keep it all in one place as opposed to carrying a lunchbox
330
and a drink bottle separately from our bag and having less clothing maybe.
331
Growing up, in my case, all kids have their wheelie bags.
332
We basically use that.
333
I feel like if you were to show up at school with a wheelie bag, people would be like, did you just get off the plane?
334
Like, were you traveling overseas?
335
Where are you guys going? you're going on holiday
336
that would probably definitely be a way of being targeted for bullying okay another thing
337
that i think it's weird surprising is the unique wildlife here in australia of course before coming here
338
you always hear about the kangaroos and the koalas
339
and these are very unique animals indeed i don't think
340
there are animals like these marsupials anywhere else in the world
341
but yeah you got marsupials over there in south america not as many
342
but they're hiding there and there's some in north america you've got that weird possum that is just like gross, right?
343
I don't know how you guys got that ugly possum and we got the really cute stuff.
344
But yeah, in Australia, anywhere that you go that's like near bushland, if there's a lot of natural reserves and that sort of stuff,
345
you're going to see things like there's kangaroos in the middle of the road, koalas crossing the road.
346
There's loads of birds everywhere.
347
Reptiles are all over the shop.
348
You're going to get spiders in your house.
349
It happens more in the hotter and the more humid parts, the further north you go.
350
It is something that we just sort of get used to.
351
And you've got to be careful.
352
One of the things you have to know about is
353
that like if you're driving at nighttime in regional rural kind of areas,
354
always have your lights on high beams when there are no other cars around
355
because kangaroos can just come out of nowhere and totally clean up the car.
356
You've got to be careful and that's why you'll see so many people with bumper bars on the front of their cars.
357
Another thing that really surprised me about Australia
358
and perhaps it shouldn't have considering how important the beach lifestyle is for this country is
359
that they have a beach safety education program called nippers
360
this is basically a program where kids as young as five years old learn about beach safety
361
and rescue techniques yeah little nippers we had this growing up pretty much every surf lifesaver club around the country
362
if they have enough kids nearby
363
i imagine we'll have this kind of a program where they're
364
teaching kids how to swim how to be able to save people in the surf probably cpr all of
365
that sort of stuff
366
and there's a sort of progression where they can end up working for the surf life -saving club
367
or volunteering as surf life savers to rescue people on the beach
368
and you'll see the flags on these beaches so yeah
369
if you're in australia pretty much always be very careful in near water
370
because there are so many foreigners that drown every single year swim between the flags
371
and yeah focus on beaches
372
that have surf life -saving clubs with surf life savers there yeah it's something
373

382
And I'm like, everyone learns to swim here.
383
And she was like, no one in Brazil where I'm from learns to swim.
384
But here for kids, it's like everyone does it.

Грамматика в этом видео
Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:
| Конструкция | В видео |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчас | I've come · they've taken · i've gotten |
| Пассивный залог be + причастие прошедшего времени — важно, что происходит, а не кто это делает | are usually designed · is known · being surrounded |
| Past Continuous was/were + -ing — действие, которое длилось в определённый момент прошлого | was living · were renting · were living |
| Вероятность с «might / may» might/may + глагол — возможно, но не точно | may have · might be · may not be |
Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание
Говорящий использует 122 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например don't, you're, they're. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.
- Звуки «th»: bath /bɑːθ/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/, clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, bother /ˈbɑðɚ/
- Звуки «sh» и «zh»: wash /wɑʃ/, specialist /ˈspɛʃəlɪst/, rubbish /ˈɹʌbɪʃ/, shock /ʃɔk/, exposure /ɪkˈspəʊ.ʒə(ɹ)/
- Длинные слова — следите за ударением: supermarket /ˌsupɚˈmɑɹkət/, compulsory /kəmˈpʌlsəɹi/, invitation /ɪnvɪˈteɪʃən/, traditionally /tɹəˈdɪʃ.ə.nə.li/, subsidiary /sʌbˈsɪ.di.əɹ.i/
Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:
- /w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: swim /swɪm/, wash /wɑʃ/, suite /swiːt/, afterwards /ˈæf.tɚ.wɚdz/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/
- /h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, nowhere /ˈnoʊ.(h)wɛɹ/, honey /ˈhʌni/, wheelie /ˈ(h)wili/
- Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: confused /kənˈfjuːzd/, beside /bɪˈsaɪd/, afterwards /ˈæf.tɚ.wɚdz/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, arrive /əˈɹaɪv/
Как заниматься с этим видео
- Прослушайте всё видео один раз молча и выпишите незнакомые слова.
- Начните со скорости 0,75×, повторяйте предложение за предложением и вернитесь к обычной скорости, когда станет легко.
- Запишите себя и сравните с оригиналом, обращая внимание на такие слова, как swim, wash, butt.
Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
