I assumed that DON-tay meant they were saying it like the "don" in "donuts". Or maybe she meant that they say it like more the "o" in "song"?

An Australian accent sounds very different to an American accent, and it's hard to explain the difference without actually hearing it. When we say Dante, the Dan bit sounds more like dun ( rhymes with nun) than don. If that makes sense.
