“under the pump" is my favourite expression. It's so vivid. lol.

Thanks Emma to share your Australian Expressions with us...🙏

Very interesting video Emma! I did not know all these Australian slang espressions! It is always useful to learn them. Bikki is a very nice word indeed. Thank you so much.

I liked the word "telly". In the russian slang language we call tv set very similar: "telek".

As an American I knew about half of the slang phrases you used.

Love your videos. You are such an eloquent teacher. I use your material a lot in my English lessons when doing pronunciation work with my students. Clear voice, well edited videos, and you are very natural on the camera. Keep up the great work! Hope you feel encouraged today. Thanks chick

"Bikkie and Sanga", were sounding more amazing to me. They'd been used several times then! Thanks for this cooperative lesson, Emma! Hopya see again.

Thank you so much Emma🙏

If I've pushed you outside of your comfort zone, I'm happy! That is where real learning happens! If Australian Slang is not essential knowledge for you (as in, you don't live in Australia or talk to Australians often) then it's good to know this slang exists (so you can ask about it when you encounter it) but you don't need to study/remember/use it yourself! Prioritise the English words and phrases that are relevant to you ❤️

Do most of these words have a similar etymological origin, i.e., do they typically source from England or America or are they without any external linguistic contamination?

@JustJokes-bw4fs

I'm Australian with a British family. I hope Emma answers this, I'd be interested. What I know (which is little) is that some is from UK. We obviously used to have a lot of influence from the UK. Like rhyming slang (when she said...I'm going to hit the frog and toad - which means road) That is very British. Some words (not necessarily slang) are the same as words used in America (but not as many when compared to the UK.) Then Australia has developed (and adapted) their own language as well. I'd love Emma to give us stats and more detailed info on this.

Brilliant answer! Some of these slang words and expressions are distinctly Australian (for example “sanga”) but quite a few are used in the UK too.
