Welcome back to the Aussie English podcast!
My first guest for the year 2023 is the amazing CEO and host of the All Ears English podcast, Lindsay McMahon.
In today’s episode, we talk about the difference between American and Australian business English.
Yes, there is a stark difference between the two, as business English is influenced by culture — culture bleed, right, that’s a good word for that!. This is includes difference in jargon, slang terms, expressions, and other stuff.
One interesting example here is the use of ‘sir’. In the American culture, when you’re a police officer, or a person of authority, and you are to address a local citizen, you’d notice the use of sir/ma’am back and forth. Whereas here in Australia, you’ll hear both parties call each other ‘mate’.
Join us today as we talk about these cultural differences and how they affect American English and Australian English!
