[Opinions] Re: The American softening of T's
Lots of names don't sound nearly as good in an Australian accent as they do in other accents. I don't have a strong Australian accent as I have spent time living overseas and I was raised in a family where very few relatives have an Aussie accent- but most Australians are terribly sloppy with their vowels. Even mine leave a lot to be desired compared to most Northern US accents or British accents. I hate it!I can't think of a specific name that annoys me in an Australian accent right now off the top of my head so I might edit one in later when I have some time :)
