Keep sharing I'm intrigued.
>>
We share a lot of our slang with Australia, and a lot of it is just shortening it

Convo = conversation
Arvo = afternoon
Bevvy = alcoholic beverage

We also use Maori words occasionally but almost entirely in a sarcastic sense E.g. Ka pai = well done

I use a little bit of British, white, chicano, and negro slang around friends and family. Sometimes I call my brother m8, lad, nigger, nigga, homie, dude, etc. Only with very close friends do I use these, otherwise I am fairly reserved around others. For my friends who have studied French in university, we occasionally trade insults while Spanish insults are known by just about anyone who has grown up in Southern California, though some might not be as familiar with a word like "mallate" which is literally a kind of beetle but is a Chicano pejorative for "nigger."

Also, a few months ago someone called me "mate" at university. He had just as an American accent as I do, so I'm wondering if some British slang isn't starting to spread here. This was in San Diego, where we do have some Britbongs and Aussies, but I would not have expected to hear a fellow American call me mate.
>>
>>60230223
This is not American slang. This is nigger slang. Learn the difference
>>
>>60230836
we use convo too
>>
>>60230815
Pivas(пивac) - beer
Torchok(тopчoк) - junkie
>>
>>60231213
>so I'm wondering if some British slang isn't starting to spread here

Please please don't.. No offence to yanks but the American (and Canadian) accent doesn't work with mate or lad or most other Brit slang (sorry if you're offended) tbqh. Just as American slang like dive, awesome and other stuff sounds cringy in our accent.
>>
>>60231375
Sometimes here too.
>>
>>60231452
*Dude
>>
post vocaroos of yourself saying slang from other countries

this is fucking yummy
>>
Never really here it much since i moved in the city, much more common in rural areas
>>
>>60231452
I don't know, it was some douchebag covered in tribal tattoos. Not the kind of people I willingly talk to.

As for using British slang among my friends, it's always done with an accent and for certain situations where a British character seems appropriate. Sometimes my girlfriend from Dorset does a valley girl accent when she wants to repeat something bitchy she heard that day. Some accents are universally associated with certain manners more than others.

Are we not your fellow Americans or was jfk just talking to whites??
>>
>>60231657
You are our fellow Americans. But i'd consider the way we talk different subgroups of American speech, would you not? Scots, english and Welsh talk different but they're all British right? Hence the way niggers speak in the US and the way The rest of Americans (including most of the US Blacks) speak are pretty different.
>>
>>60231628
my grampa's generation used Itakou,(wop)Amekou(Yanks),Kuronbo(nigger),
these days we use Burikasu(brit + trash)

Chong (gook) is used by all generation.
>>
>>60231798
Can you call another japanese in who's purity of blood you're in doubt a chong?
>>
Piss off

Mate

Whanau - Family in Maori

Sweet - equivalent of great

Maori's use more like chur, bru, cuzzie etc and probably more Maori terms but white New Zealanders don't use them.
