    In Canadian English “yeah, no”, “yeah, no, yeah”, “no, yeah”, and “yeah, no, for sure” are just sayings (here’s a random reference I found). I just meant “yeah, like you suggest, no, other countries might not use the term”

          Nah that’s kiwis.

          They say stuff like “where’s the car” whereas we say it more like “where’s the car”.

          Nah, we don’t use hard r’s at the end of our words like in American English. For instance, our way of pronouncing ‘car’ is more like ‘cah’ or just ‘ca’. The way you’ve written it is basically Pirate English.

            My desperate hope to someday meet Australian pirates has been horribly crushed.
