Why do i sometimes talk with a british accent when my parents don't?
Its normal. I sometimes sound like I have a Chinese accent because I happen to pick it up from some places.

(I can't put it into better words, sorry.) I do that. Anyway, sometimes you pick it up from people, and sometimes you just, well, do it. Hope this helped~

Do the Australians have their own accent?
YesTheir accent sounds similar to the British accentAnswerThe Australian accent sounds nothing like any British accent to both the British and of course Australians, except perhaps for private school educated "toffs". The Australian accent is as different from mainstream British as US accents are.In addition:The Australian accent has been scientifically proven to be one of the most difficult accents in the world to accurately reproduce (seriously). There are also regional differences.The Australian accent is also nothing like that portrayed by people pretending to be Australians on US television shows. It is not a "cockney" accent with the emphasis on the "oi" sound that it is propounded to be. Where Americans emphasise the "r" in words such as "teacher" and "neighbour", in the Australian accent it is more of a "schwa" (an unstressed, neutral, toneless vowel sound) so it comes out as "teacha" or "neighba" (unstressed).Additionally:Australians' (and New Zealanders', with the exception of some Scots accents from Southland/Otago) accents are non-rhotic, where "r" is not heavily pronounced, particularly in the last syllable. They are by no means unique, and some US accents are also non-rhotic.
