yes that's correct i remember those ads from the mid 80's around the same time the 'crocodile dundee' movie was released. and since 'prawn' means nothing to americans that's the word they had to use. the same ad also featured the term 'g'day'.

@Jerry Nam hey man, I’m Australian, just wanted to reassure ya that as long as you can speak basic English you’ll be right not learning all the slang. You can typically pick it up using context cues and how we say it, most Australians don’t even know what we’re saying half the time, not a clue what the true definition is, just a general gist of it, if there was anything you should know it’d be “arvo”, “yeah nah”, “nah yeah”, and other terms depending on where your going in Australia since the slang is so diverse. I live in rural QLD and everyone’s very Occa and true blue, so if you were to come out here, slang is essential, but in the cities, and posher places like Sydney and Melbourne, it’s probably not as essential. I have a German mate who took years to understand Australian slang cause they’re so literal in Germany, but she got by just using context and people being really relaxed and willing to explain themselves.

My coworkers from Perth, here in the States loved our Halloween. Talked excitedly about buying lollies. Told them candy is good, doesn’t have to be a lollipop. They explained it to me. Plus they often told each other to get stuffed. Thought they were wishing death followed by taxidermy for a nanosecond.

"Get stuffed" is a widely used expression and is a soft form of "oh go get fucked". Something that is "stuffed" is ...er... out of service. Of course if a gal was "up the duff" she would be pregnant. That is to say, she would have a "bun in the oven".

Lollies is British. And Vegemite is an Australian product that imitated a British product, Marmite. It might have arisen out of war shortages in Britain (WW2) when Britain was rationing a lot of food and othet products and shipping out of Britain was limited. Food and resources had to first go to the army and navy and fighting the war. Australia wasn't affected by food oe resource shortages, as there was a lot of both, and Australia exported all their extra.

Interesting. In Australia we say "Chuck a u-ee" ... ie, make a u-turn. "No worries, mate" is very common in Australia.

This is fascinating. I am from Kensington, Melbourne, and we have a completely different dialect, totally different accent too. A lot of these words sound a bit feminine and even childish at times, I've never heard of "duzza" or "bevvie" before. Here are some Kensington slang words. Black Mariah - A police van. In other parts of Australia these are called divvy vans or booze buses. "Don't let the Black Mariah catch you." Tuppence - Nothing, not much, always used to refer to a value, often money. "I got tuppence for that ebay listing." Madra - A mutt. In other parts of Australia you may hear the word "bitzer" instead. "I got a new dog, it's a madra though." Aught - Anything. "I haven't done aught, I swear." Chimpy - Cheap. "I got this car chimpy mate, don't worry." Chips - Thin, lean, often used to refer to a skinny person. "He's a bit chips, hey?" Innit - Abbreviation for "isn't it." Dunnit - Abbreviation for "doesn't it." Wannit - Abbreviation for "wasn't it." Ant or Ain't - Abbreviation for "have not". This is different to the other uses of "ain't", such as in US English. Half-Cut - Half drunk. "I'm half-cut mate!" Pissed - Drunk. "Oh, he's pissed." Paralytic - Very drunk. "He's bloody paralytic!" Abbas/Abbers - Abbreviation for abattoirs. Slaught - A slaughterman. Dill - A simpleton Till - A cash register. Docket - A receipt. Stone - A unit of weight. This is the only place in Australia I have heard stone be used more often than kilograms to refer to someone's weight. Cut - Drunk. "I'm cut." Grog - Alcohol. "I'll get the grog." Alow - Underneath, below. "Just get alow it and have a look." Aye - Yes. It might sound like pirate-talk but I have heard many people use this seriously in conversation, mostly older men. "Aye, I agree." Bedlam - Insanity, craziness. "This house is utter bedlam!" Beld - An old lady, often a bit of a ratty one. "That old beld down the street's driving me up the wall." Luce - Pronounced "loose", this means a match or sometimes a sparkler. "Get a luce, would you?" Peeler - A policeman. "Bloody peelers are on us." Shrifty - Forgiving, merciful. "He's acting a bit shrifty today, I think we'll be alright." Bird - A woman or older girl. Tapster - A person who serves at the bar and is not the publican. Jenker/Jenka - A cart hauled by horses, also used to refer to billy carts. Wain - A wagon hauled by horses, sometimes used to refer to something very heavy. Husbandman - A farmer. Iron horse - A train, almost always a very old train such as a steam engine, but it is still used to refer to freight trains. Olk/Olc - Bad, no good, rotten. Loggerhead - A thick-headed person, someone unintelligent and brash. Conta/Conter - Someone descended from convicts. Pom/Pommy - Englishman. Pissant - Someone descended from English immigrants rather than convicts or Irish immigrants. Piss In - Do something easily. Pisspot - An alcoholic or someone who doesn't wash often enough. Donahue - A wildman, someone who lives in the hinterland. Empty/Emptyhead - Someone foolish and stupid, or sometimes someone with a mental disability. Granna/Granner - An ugly person. Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

After some research I've found that the dialect also has some Irish words, apparently "olc" is Irish, and so is "conta" (I think the spelling is slightly different, though). Kensington is a very old suburb of Melbourne, and until recently it was always a working class suburb. Essentially everyone I have met who have long family lineages in Kensington are descended either from convicts or from Irish immigrants, so I think a lot of that slang just got stuck in Kensington as the cultures fused into one.

We Aussies shorten everything! You can tell what State ppl come from by the word they use for what they wear when swimming. These include cozzie [shrunk from swimming costume}, trunks [sort from swimming trunks [and NOT a car boot in the USA] -- trunks usually have longer legs, like boxer shorts. Budgie smuggler [ummm, what a man appears to be hiding after emerging from cold surf!]. Speedos [a popular brand], bikini, bathers, boardies [from board shorts, also boxer-shape], swimmers, togs. Wiki says togs is the most popular term at 38% [see Lily & Lime].

No worries is super popular here in Canada! And yeah, we say 'how's it going' AND 'how you doing' frequently :)

In Texas, we also use: “how ya doin” and U-ie. People use “no, yeah” and “yeah, no” too, but that might be more of a midwestern or Cali thing. “no worries” is also super common but mainly just for younger people.

Yeah nah (no thanks, or not really) Soft drink/cold one (drinks and beer) *Americans call 'soft drink' either pop or soda* Cheers (a form of thank you or a goodbye till later take off from mates, also used in gatherings when partaking in beer (cold ones) Lass (female, girl, a formal polite old slang to recognize a woman) Aye (an agreement tone or overjoyed rise of tone for something awesome that's just happened) Nioce *nice* (exactly as nice but with an 'O' making the word drag out in a powerful slang enhancement) Root (meaning 'sex'. We don't say we had sex unless they aren't as aussie as they could be. Example: "damn the Sheila was a good root") Sheila/shela *spelling differs* (woman aka lass aka female, another term but less formal than "lass") Rooted *no not sex; sort of depends on context* (To be tired and exhausted, examples: " I got root this arvo by him bad, I'm hella rooted" or " damn I'm rooted" Maccas (Macdonalds- fast food) Ambo *abbreviated word* ( meaning ambulance, health emergency) Barbie *no not the doll* ( meaning a 'barbecue' aka food cooked on a massive hot plate)

The accent variation is cultural rather than regional. So you get 'cultivated', which is soft and leans towards posh English, broad, which is a strong Aussie accent, associated, rightly or wrongly, with working class, and general, which is in between the two. But like everywhere else, there is a tonne of variety in the minute details of the accent, to where even family members can sound a bit different.

Yep ... a "yank tank" is Aussie for a large American car.

ive noticed theres quite a bit of overlap between slang they say in australia to slang we use in boston. Like, half of this stuff we use too, no worries, nah yeah, how you doin? sorta thing

I used to wanna move there

getting there bro

"no worries" is used in the US, but in a different context. In Australia it seems to be more of a "you're welcome", while in the US, its more "don't worry about it" "It's not a big deal"

The way the first girl described the bogans, I thought people who suffered from lack of intelligence, basically zombies hanging around. 😁

a Bogan is someone who is uncool and uneducated, they would have trouble spelling their own name!

Yep big mouth low IQ .

All of these videos seem to be made on the east coast. Many of these words/ phrases are specific to that region.

The only question an Ozzie actually doesn't hesitate to answer 'yes' immediately is Are you australian?
