We’ve Been Saying Their Name Wrong All This Time

As one of Sydney’s proudest rock bands, AC/DC made it from the land down under to the biggest stages of the world. Their contagious rock tunes, filled with memorable hooks, allowed them to sell a whopping 200 million records worldwide. But did you know that the Aussies have their own way of saying the band’s name?

In Australia, you don’t say “ACDC,” you say “Akka Dakka!” What’s strangest is that ‘Akka Dakka’ doesn’t mean anything in particular, as it’s simply an Australian way of referring to one of the country’s best-known rock bands.
