Aussie Slang

It has been brought to my attention that occasionally I use jargon that may be incomprehensible to international readers so I am taking the liberty to define some of these terms:

​

​

Bottle-o - /Bottle shop/ n. This one is pretty self explanatory. A place to buy bottles of grog (see grog)

​

Grog - n. Alcohol

​

Salties - /Salt water crocodiles/ n. These are the mean ones. Don't go swimming with salties if you don't want to get chomped

​

Straya - /Australia/ n. A large country to the South of Bali. "Bloody hell! That is a large country to the South of Bali!"

​

Whoop Whoop - n. An ill-defined location, a long way from anywhere

​

​

.........................................more to come

I would love to hear from you!
