PERFECT timming! :D

I thought I was starting to get the hang of that down under utter, but had one run over me the other day here that had me so befuddled, I didn’t know what to ask. lmao

I’ll be back at ya as soon as I find the dingo jargon.;)


(*now where did I put something I can’t read?:confused: )

what a beaut resurected thread :)

Steve Irwin does lay it on thick and he is regarded by a great percentage of the Australian population as a wanker, still he is getting wealthy at it.

A piece of slang that is fairly uniquely used in tasmania rather than the rest of the country is rummun or originally "rum one" meaning a quirky character.

i laughed at a previous post here where someone was rooting for the crocodiles. Rooting is slang for fucking in Aus so that would be a very interesting spectacle :)

I think you should start throwing random thoughts at us from the Dictionary you showed us.... Please?

Educate the ignorant :D

I guess that makes me an autumn leaf then....might have to use that as a nick somewhere else... :D


Lets see....This autumn leaf is getting into the fart sack until sparrow fart. I got that right? sounds awfully funny to say though.

I have never heard of any of those and I live here!

LMAO @ SuccubusKitty & Catch22:C

Only this year have I become familiar with one Aussie phrase that I’ll long remember. Has to do with Christmas trees and decorations.;) LMAO (right BilBo?)

Grumbleguts- Your “rummun” is a new one for me, but the best are the ones we have a total different meaning for. “Rooting” also has a hunting or looking for something meaning for us Yanks. I like yours better.;)

Loved SuccubusKitty good night sentence although “fart sack” is the same for us.:)

Sharni- ”Bitser” is totally new to me but “bawdy” means lewd or rude up-over. “Blimey” isn’t new but I believe most Americans associate it with the Britts.

Now we have to recall some of the words we have laughed about in our IM’s and get them on here.:)

(I haven’t found that Oz encryption yet. Had to find when you don’t have a clue what it was in reference too.) LOL :

And you call yaself an Aussie *LOL*

an ya likely aint ever been the clearer side of the smoke eitha










Explain for our american mates
he has most likely never been out side of the CITY limits

Please do NOT confuse with Blarney! [Irish]

Thats 'bEwdy' not 'bAwdy' PF *LOL*.......Bawdy means the same here too :D:D

Stone the crows! It was the fart sack ones I have not heard before. I have gone walkabout in the bulldust.
