An excuse in a way, if your mate asks you why you werent somewhere, you say "i was at x but!" Or "i was doing x but!"

Another qld slang term is "ay", changes the way you speak completely; reword your questions from

"Have you been busy at work?"

To

"You been busy at work ay?"

Yes
>>
>>56351949
Yes, or grog depending on where your from but both are common.

"Lets sink some piss ay"
>>
>>56351949
Not always, but yeah.
>>
>>56351944
Favourite one ahaha
>>
is it true aussies cant drink booze in public like the yanks?
>>
>>56351854
so It's like Canadian's "eh"?
>>
>>56351949
also grog
>>
>>56351854
can also use it to change the mean from a question to like a half informed question. eg.

"You been busy at work ay?"
to
"You been busy at work, ay?"

>>56352049
Depends on what state, but for the most part nah. Its a sort of grey spot. Basically as long as a boy in blue doesn't come near you you're fine.

australians also say "good on ya"

when i was on holiday once there were loads of aussies about and one got his luggage lost, and then when they phoned him to say they found it he said "bloody good on ya mate" to a turk who probably didnt understand
>>
>>56352097
Piss, but it's in completely different context.

"Lets sink some piss"
Compared to
"Im gonna take a piss mate"
>>
>>56352097
piss
its all about context
if I said "I'm sinking piss tonight" itd mean alcohol
but if I said "I'm taking a piss" itd mean literal piss.

you also use a lot of other verbs and phrases to get around the confusion for the most part, eg. Taking a slash means having a piss.
>>
>>56352178
>>56352191
Yeah yeah, but you don't have a slang term for piss or taking a piss?
>>
>>56352097

>>56352231
in britain we have

aving a wazz
taking a slash

>>
>>56352231
chucking a piss
>>
>>56352231
No theres no need really, piss is just a general term for alcohol. Where as literal piss is just piss, there isnt anything else

Thanks. I've ever seen impressive gaijins. They might have said "piss, piss", "ya (yeah)" while holding their mugs. (Maybe they were drinking beer)
If my supposition isn't right, the beer could have tasted like piss or they could have wanted to go to pee.

What's wrong?

The thing is, using these phrases makes people think you're from the wops (well at least for me, went to a country boy dominated school and now at uni in melb). Also something that hasn't been mentioned is that instead of 'my' people will often use 'me'
>>
>>56352356
>I'm not here to fuck spiders
Means like two things, can either be "I'm not here to mess around" or "I'm already doing that"
Usually used jokingly to say you're doing something to a high standard. eg. At a bar, and someone asks "You sinking piss tonight mate?" "I'm not here to fuck spiders".

Fair crack of the whip is just a way to either say that someone was given fairness, or someone deserves to be given fairness.

Tonnes of slang in this comedy gold.
Only Australians will get it probably.

>Seppo
What did the Aussies mean by this? It's a Finnish male name.
>>
>>56352846
seppo is a slur for "american". kinda like "yank"
>>
>>56352879
Any idea about the erymology behind that word?
>>
>>56352907

septic tank
>>
>>56352907
Seppo means septic tank, which rhymes with yank.
>>
"I fucking love sucking abo cock"
"I hate to admit it but America is the greatest nation on earth"
"i wish we were more like new Zealand"

the 3 I hear the most

5/5 but you'll have to go piss outside.
Or do you keep lettuce in your bathroom cupboard for this?
>>
>>56352907
its from cockney rhyming slang, "septic tank" = "bloody yank". Brit phrase originally
>>
>>56351854
so it's "eh" then
