This is some slang that I personally use on a daily basis but idk if any other Australian ppl say these things..
1. "Far Out!" - I use this instead of "f**k" or "sh*t" (I could write the actual words but I'm feeling clean today..)
2. Wagging - when u ditch school or skip a lesson at school "be rebellious".. No! I've never wagged!!
3. White out - idk if this is Australian or if I just made it up.. You paint it over a mistake if you've written in pen..
4. Thongs - flip flops
5. Vegemite - a spread that you put on toast mostly.. I think some places call it "marmite" but I think it's slightly different stuff
6. Chips - this counts as like hot chips and like potato 'crisps' BUT WE CALL THEM CHIPS BC THATS WHAT THEY R
7. Glue stick - a stick of glue!? Apparently in England they are 'Pritt Sticks'
8. Zucchini/ Eggplant - btw I'm getting these off of my English friend.. She says that in England they say "aubergine and courgette"..
9. Jam - this is like fruits in a jar.. Like strawberry, apricot, blackberry, raspberry, fig, marmalade.
10. Jelly - the stuff u use jelly crystals with.. Like u pour hot water over it and mix it then put it in the fridge..
11. "I Reckon!" - idk how to explain this.. Sorta like u agree with some thing I guess.. Like..
Person 1: he's so annoying!
Person 2: I Reckon!
Lol this is turning into the Urban Dictionary.. I guess u could also say "I know right"
12. Esky - a box that u put ice in and then u put food and drink in it to keep it cool..
** No one in Australia says "CRICKEY!" Or anything that is stereotypical like that 😊😊
Sorry this chapter was shit but I'm bored af so this is what u get!! Ily x
