LOL, the Kiwis say ehpple, don't they? (Or, you know, Lucy Lawless does, and she's my NZ accent model.)
It's mainly the e and o sounds, if I remember correctly.
If I'm comparing Lucy to Jesse Spencer correctly, I know what you're talking about.
I would be glad to help out with your little experiment/learning thingy.
I have a tent. And a clubhouse thing that's decent (or could be, I haven't been up there in ages and I seem to remember that my brother and some of his friends made a mess in there a while back). And an entire week of spring break right before one week of school and then prom. If you started swimming now, you might be here by then!
Although that's more of a reflection on their choice of words and... my interpretation.
LOLOLOL. Yeah. Great example, though. Some of their dialecty-type-speech is pretty much like that, though. Cockney, for one.
