Aussie slang & sayings !
A some other countries already know....us Aussies have a language all our own ;) We seem to have this habit of adapting words from other languages to make our own.....and our as for our sayings...well there we really seem to lose some ppl...:D
So i thought i'd start up this thread so that if anyone hears an Oz saying or word....they can come here and have an Aussie try to explain it....and i do mean try...some of the words even we dont understand...*LOL* My favorite word is "Feral" and i use it all the time...eg: Those kids are feral!....jeez we had a feral weekend.. Favorite saying...hmmmm..."I'm drier than a dead dingos donger" Sharniqua |
Just what I was looking for!
Thank you dear. I’m just a poor, dumb Westside Irish kid. I need all the help I can get!:(
Love the “dead dingo’s donger”. Still not sure about the “feral”? Should I see that as positive or negative? Both kids and weekends can be either.:confused: Clarify for me please. We use “flash lights”, SOME people use “torches”. Do you have “lanterns”?:) :) |

After getting up of the floor I've decided that I cannot let an opportunity go by..... The correct response to your query Panty would have to be: We Aussies do not have any of those, because being Down Under........the sun shines out of our asses...LOL..:D :D :D |
LOL@Bilbo
Pantyfanatic.....we call them torches and flash lights :D Sharniqua |
"thats not a knife, this is a knife"

Please don't get Bilbo's hopes up.
Sharni, "Dry as a dead dingo's donger"? Bazza McKenzie nostalgia week? |
"Put another Shremp on the barbie"

I got so confused when I first moved to Adelaide by the following:
"flat out" "Rocked up" "goodonya" (for those of us in North America - good on you) Slang that stuck: "Sweet as!" "heaps" (as in "heaps good friends") "reckon" Fun thread!!! Cheers big ears! Ophelia PS - I'm curious how the Aussies feel about Steve Erwin...a.k.a The Crockadile Hunter? |
Crikey!!!!!
Sorry don't feel much for the guy at all!...lol
|
Steve!!! The all mighty croc hunter!!!
All I can say about him is HE IS NUCKING FUTS!!!!
Anybody who would jump on a croc ....in a mud hole... in complete darkness.... cause his lantern went out, can put his boots (what's left of them;) ) under my bed anytime!! :D :D ;) |
"Dry as a dead dingo's donger"? is a round about way of saying that your thirsty....*L*

He irritates the shit out of me...*LOL* Sharniqua |
A bit more choke and you would've started
I love this saying...*LOL* To explain: You say this to someone who has farted loudly in company |
"I'm going to drop the clutch"
