Very differently from most Australians

I can't explain our "accent" (heck, I don't find we have one, I mean I've only been brought up with NZ accents) But it's kind of straight forward, you know there's no rolling of toungs (so to speak) and whiny pitches in our tones, if you know what I mean? Our accent is very soft
