Got a favourite expression? Did we miss one? Tell us in the comments :)

It's hilarious to hear so many Aussie slang words so close together. Makes you realise how often we use them - and how great they are 😅

Glad you enjoyed it Fiona :)

loved that old Fosters commercial.....Australian for remote control....a bloke throws a stubby at another in a pub...hits him in the head....and he reaches up to change the channel. LMAO

You can attribute "stoked" to a fire. When you stoke a fire it gets invigorated and/or excited.

What you Aussies call "bogons", we Americans usually call either a "redneck", or a "hick", other terms would be "country bumpkin", "yokel", and in the southeastern U.S. (especially in upland areas), a "hillbilly". But there might or might not be other terms we use for them.

A stubby is a small bottle of beer, usually 375ml. A large bottle is a tallie and a can is a tinnie or just can.

Thanks Nienke! We miss you too! Haha there is just so much slang and expressions we use that we had to keep it short otherwise the video would be hours long! 😆

A couple you left out are...dunny = a toilet, or the little room where the toilet is Durrie or dart = a cigarette

That was the most informative Australian slang video I've ever seen. I will probably still fail the quiz, though.

I speak english and I find this funny as xD never heard these before obviously because I'm not aussie

A can is a can, a stubbie is a glass bottle, the same shape as a bundy ginger beer. A paddock is exactly the same as a field, it gets plowed.

Not necessarily ploughed. eg, a cow paddock or football paddock

Pretty sure "crow eater" is a reference to the SA coat of arms. Looks like a crow on a plate. Or a magpie in any case.

How about "driving the porcelain bus" or "technicolor yawn". Both meaning throwing up.

At 13 i came to Australia from NZ. I had a soft drink and a kid at school said...give us a swig...i did not know what he said...it meant a sip of the drink.

I feel a bit musswelbrook today. As crook as rookwood, Rookwood is an old and large cemetery in Sydney. Joe (blake) for snake, noah(s ark) for shark

Hi Michele it’s Chiara and I can’t wait to see you

A Bogan is a bloke with a mullet carrying a stubbie who runs around like a blue ass fly. cheers

From the Colonial times, a Victorian was a Gumnut, a New South Welshman was a Cornstalk, Gone Troppo was due to the incessant rain in the wet season in the tropics, people would actually go a little crazy. A stubby is a small bottle of beer, usually 375ml, budgie smugglers are speedos,

A lot of these we use in the UK! 🇬🇧😄 But then a lot of Australians have British heritage plus we grew up watching Prisoner Cell Block H and Neighbours 😝 and in London we've had a large Aussie community. However, a lot had me stumped and even I was amazed at the unique phrases. Love you guys! ❤️

you did a crackin’ job!

Will correct yas on one thing, a stubby is a short bottle, a nickname coined by VB, not a can/tinny

Queenslander!

Girls please, a stubbie is NOT a tinnie, a stubbie is a half bottle of beer made from glass. Fun vid tho, thanks.

Queenslander here

sorry girls., sandgroper, is indeed a Westralian, named after an underground insect commonly found there.

great vid but....fer the record the term "STOKED" is american originally. i'm 54 and that one was extremely common when i was a kid back in the 70's. i would expect australians to more likely use the term "CHUFFED" like they do in the u.k. and ireland. i can easily imagine 'CHUFFED TO BITS" (also u.k. and ireland) in an australian accent.
