Fifth circle Registered the : 2010-06-28 Messages: 1620 | According to wiki, is strine;
Strine /?stra?n/ is a term coined in 1964[1] and subsequently used to describe a joke or made-up "language" purportedly spoken by Australians whose accents frequently run words together in a type of liaison. The term is a syncope, derived from a shortened phonetic rendition of the pronunciation of the word "Australian" in an exaggerated Broad Australian accent.[2] Ceterum censeo topicum | ||

Let's put some bangers on the barbie and have some tinnies until we get all cranky and have a barney, then we can chunder all over our clobber because we couldn't find the nearest dunny. When we have finished doing all that we can go shag some jumbucks because that's what us Aussies do. Oh yes, I'm a pommy bastard by the way.

 Third circle Registered the : 2008-09-04 Messages: 2440 | I thought the slang term for student was faggot, not maggot. Eh, must've changed it for political-correctness.
Also, brah is used in North America too, but I tend to usually want to backhand people who use that term.  | ||
