Im in Sth Australia and the "he's blotto" is certainly used here in the country area I grew up in and still is today. The "rack off" I hear it more used in the younger generations then the older ones. I'd more so use "bugger off"
Mate this helped me out a lot! I’ve been trying to master the Aussie language and your helping me out big time!
I find it easy to understand and learn from you than any other Aussie language vlogger. You're voice is good, explanation straight up simple and you're good looking too. So, thank you. You're quite a help 👍
other australians, is this true?
Quote from my australian friend:
"australians just bend words to mean whatever.
grammar is a construct we communicate in context
"last night i got absolutely published"
i got super drunk last night
it doesnt matter what i say everyone understands
smashed hammered scuffed bombed published deleted decked necked"
I'm in Australia for 10 years and Aussie English is the best English in world and it's easy to get Lerne mate
Sometimes but we have traditional slang. Never heard published. We say last night we got "plastered" or "shitfaced"
@@tessacyclone6329 you never heard of it but I think that's his point
I know it's a year later, but that is an astute observation! You could just as easily say, "I got squirreled" or "snorkeled" and be understood.
I get a secret thrill when amoungst other Aussies speaking Strine.
I'm not a native English speaker I'm from uruguay but when it is said there "give it a go ya mug" I think it's similar to the one I heard it's very old British that is the expression "it's not my cup of tea " which means that that topic/person doesn't interest you at all . 😘 Thanks for your classes I really find them very useful to improve my English level and also to gain more experience in Australian English as I'm going very soon there and I'll need it
Another great video! Thank you Pete 😊
i like this video about the slang terms. More of such videos please.
Oh mate, I can’t just stop watching your videos! I reckon I’ve spent almost two hours in your channel haha. It’s informative and entertaining. Really happy to find you. Cheers from down under :D
From South Korea! I was in Sydney for the entire month of July and just got back home :) already miss the country
Hehe, some of the meanings that the postcard provides for the slang seems hilariously over-the-top, super polite and sometimes sophisticated to the point that it's humorous.
omg i finally found the right channel
Bloody oath mate!
@@AussieEnglishPodcast what is the meaning of gate e mad
I perceive 'Go on" as meaning 'tell me more I might get what you mean' with a bit of skepticism !!!
Great info! thanks!
I really like your show, Aussie English. A comment from a Chinese student. Thank you mate.
My dad always says pull your head in to me when I am in trouble or getting silly. (I'm.and Australian)
You’re amazing Pete, love to watching your video. Thank you. And hope your guys can make more video😘
My pleasure, Monica! Thanks for watching :) Have you checked out my podcast here too? - www.aussieenglish.com.au
Your one of my favorite teacher now.... 😍😍😍
actually I do exercise Auss slang really always I love it so much ur drungo
I use:
G'day Mate
Your Shout
Go on
Whatdayawant?
Fair dinkum (I've used it, but not often. I like the phrase but it is difficult to say it and not sound contrived)
Pull Ya Head in
Howya Goin?
Bloody Oath
Never have used any of the others.
same.
a comment from Japan! This video is very nice to know what Australian talks about and I guess using more time on editing videos would be good!
I really appreciate your video, mate. Cheers.
Thank mate this one really help..
Brother u made it so easy for us 😊😊
This is a great help for me to understand my Aussie customers 💓
are you a chat mod?
Thank you so much our intelligent teacher
The only two slangs that I remember after watching this video: rack off! you drongo. *sigh hahaha this video is a bonzer! good job mate.
Sir could you please explain me the meaning of this whole sentence-- Impersonating soldiers of the other side by wearing the enemy's uniform is allowed, though fighting in that uniform is unlawful perfidy, as is the taking of hostages.
I love your videos. As a French who considéré herself almost fluent in English, I find it interresting to year about English "from the antipode". Is New Zeland English very different ? How so ? Just asking randomly, no worries. Back to the topic on this vidéo :
So should I use "my shout" as in "my treat"?
Thanks in advance. Cilou
hey @aussie english ,could you please make a video on aussie phrase wordings; for example, you said 'not bad' and how ya goin' and other wordings, thx.
Thank you mate.
Iam ex military and the yank soldiers were fascinated by our slang language. Many times we had to explain.
Thanks bro all good
I have stumbled on your videos late in the day, and I just love them. On watching this one a sense of generational difference came upon me. I was your age back in the 1970s and nearly all of these expressions were in common use in Australia back then (the exception being to 'rage", which I associate with the 1980s - and, it was about then that the ABC produced an all night music show over the weekends called 'Rage'). Nearly all of these expressions I also associate with going to and having conversations with others in the pub (aka the 'rubbity' aka the hotel), with the exception of 'have a go you mug" (rather then 'give it go') which was commonly yelled out at the cricket especially at the Poms (the English). I love your work, but, dude, is your generation not a bit susceptible to the incursion of American English?
Learning a lot. Hope one day I will be a patron.
G'day mate
I am from Bangladesh.
I have recently come to Australia from Bangladesh and live in Brisbane. Though I have got 6 in IELTS, I am facing problem to talk fluently with Australian. Most of time I don't understand what they say due to accent. Anyway I am finding your videos very helpful.
Thanks mate for asking.
Thanks mate. I am volunteering at Vinnies and Salvos Stores. I am trying my best.
I didn't find Sheila's video! you did? I have these two postcards! 😂
Awesome video
Merci beaucoup cher monsieur 👍😘
These are more in use in country towns now than in the big cities. Twenty years ago - yes. Bit not so much now.
how you been Drongo😂😂😂 I will say that from now onwards to all my friends 😍😍
Also: Blotto on the landscape. It's a pun on "blot on the landscape".
Awesome .....Ur vids r quite cool 😎😎
I'm forever saying "Pull your head in" to my teen son when he gets salty
what about the word root (both noun and verb)? As my Aussie friend said many times, this word is one of "cornerstones of Australian culture"))
Gracias 😀
really enjoy your facial expression!
My relatives/friends/business colleagues always send me the "An Aussie Sheila" postcard when they are in Australia. Currently I own 18 cards and I really hope they would stop it as they are practically all the same.
I like the "shut ya gob" or don't get your knickers in a knot" This one is the funniest: "the old man's shot through".
Im 28. Blotto was hugely common in my town at my age.
Aussie English Nope. I grew up in Bega NSW. I moved to Wagga at 18 in 2008 and it was fairly common here too. Especially around Tradies.
Ya bloody drongo!
Yep, some are older...
Hahaha the hand gestures are adorable, also absolutely agree with the understanding of our slang, lots of it is represented in ways that we don't use it for 🤷😀😀
Hi, could you please explain me this whole sentence--- "Use of one of the emblems in order to protect combatants and military equipment with the intent of misleading an adversary,perfidy, is considered a war crime."
This sentence I got from Cambridge dictionary. I know the meaning of the word "perfidy" but I can't able to get the whole sentence structure clearly.
Thanks in anticipation.☺
Can you explain us what Australian Local people talking about
Like you explained us about Daniel mc Connell
In England we get a lot of our ideas about Aussie slang from Barry Humphries. Do you ever point Percy at the porcelain? Or park a pizza on the pavement?
Yes, I'm sure he made a lot of them up, but it's difficult for a non-Aussie to be sure! I just found a relevant article here: www.the-tls.co.uk/private-eye-at-the-va-and-in-the-tls/ A few more I can remember are 'don't come the raw prawn' (which I think is genuine), 'one-eyed trouser snake', and 'choking a d**kie' (also genuine).
Yes he made them up, but the magic of Barry McKenzie/Barry Humphrey's is that every Australian could see it as an Australian phrase. Somehow it tapped into the Australian psyche. We all laughed at it and saw it as sticking the middle finger up at snooty Poms.
Song at the beginning ?
Speak so clear
So glad, you noticed my comment. You are very charming! You little ripper
You would find most if not all are used in the regional areas they’re very laid back more so than the city areas
Love hearing Aussie, go on: I don’t believe or think your stretching the truth, avago ya mug used most in football terminology : try harder put more effort in
My mum says "give ur a go ya mug" but it always is said to someone who is trying to start a fight.... so like... "yeah right mate, give it a go then, ya mug!!!" As in "try me" i guess. A lot of these i say as well, though we use gronk more than drongo in our family. 😂
*it a go
Aussie English You're from Melbourne though.... not bogan enough xD I'm out west in Sydney, plus we are also Aboriginal decent so i guess it's used more in those areas. I hear it alot. 🤣
Question: May I ask, is the word "wog" used in a friendly manner in Australia? An Australian on another vlog says it is not a bad word to use describing average everyday people. In the USA it is a fairly unknown archaic word, that is, it is not used at all in day to day conversations, however, in the UK it is an extremely derogatory slur. So what say you in Australia?
It's a racist slur about Italians and greeks and it's bad
@@tessacyclone6329 thx, Tessa.
Not so simple. It depends on context and circumstances. Said in anger it is offensive. Said about or to a friend it simply means she/he comes from another (probably not English-speaking) country. Use with care and do not rush to assume malice.
Australians speak Australian English. It is not the same as English English. There is a level of subtlety that requires thought.
Do you use "bugger off" on behalf of "rack off" by any chances mate?
Thank you for your reply:) As a Korean loving Australia, I am happy to subscribe to your channel. Keep up a good work mate! I am really enjoying watching your contents about Aussie slang :)
how can I get free books? please help me I wanna learn Aussie Accent/ Australian Engish so bad.
Blotto was very common when I was a teenager….(a child of the 6os)
Wanna rage? In my time, want to party? Not necessarily get drunk thiugh
‘ya mug’ is derogatory when you call someone a ‘mug’ As a noun it’s used to call someone something like an ‘idiot’ not nice at all
What about "get a wriggle on"?
The best "translation" for "A Mug" would be "a bloody idiot" !
I stayed a few days in London on business. It was quite warm outside so before leaving the office I told my British colleagues what a great afternoon to wear "Thongs". I got a few laughs, smiles and smirks this made me blush after I realised I should have said "Flip Flops". I bought my "Thongs" in Australia last year so in my opinion they are "Thongs".
U killa man
Found one more but still don't get it. Usually in Aussie English everything is shortened. Why do they say: Got a face like the north end of a southbound wombat? = UGLY
If a wombat is facing south, his buttocks is facing north, therefore it's "face like a wombat's arse". Putting a simple riddle in an insult generally makes it more fun. There's also "Face like a dropped meat pie", as well as many other variations.
Thank you for the info. Every time I am visiting Australia or on this channel I learn something new. This is really interesting. Sometimes it's not easy to understand straight away. I was in a Pub in Melbourne last year. Some elderly blokes were talking about "ham and eggs" it took me quite a while to get it. They talked about the legs of a beautiful girl who was sitting nearby.
haha thats hilarious. another one is face like a smashed crab
Sheila F. That's rhyming slang. You're unlikely to hear it among young people or city people, it's lost a lot of prestige and isn't really used any more, as people tend to prefer direct communication. A bit sad really.
Sheila F. am getting some thing
Power chunder = deciding to give in to the chronic urge to regurgitate so you may partake in further alcoholic beverages.
where are you living in Australia bro? Queensland?
Aussie English do you know some music studio in Melbourne? if you know, can you send me the contact ?
Aussie English I'm from Melbourne to!
What's the difference between fair enough and Ok? My friend told me it's the same, but I feel it sounds bit different
Thanks buddy!
Fair enough means that I don’t agree with you but go ahead to do this or think like that anyway if you really want. OK just means yes, where the context is important to give it meaning.
i just figured it out im bad to pronounce the word "Th" in oath when i tryna to pronounce it, its sound like host lmaoo
If your in a shout at the pub then "you're shout" means "it's your round"
haha :) g'day mate's my fav! :D
as I've just learned that yday - yes! :) feels already embodied :D
And do you know what "t'sarvie" means? I use this one and have "taught" my phone to use the term as well...a really smart phone...
Thankyouuuu very much😀😊 because aussie accent some really hard to understand, but after watching your all video and help me lots.. And especially this video, i hear lots slang word but now i understand 😉😀 but where can buy this slang word card???? 😀 sorry...and have a good day 😊😉
Thank youuu very muchhh 😁😁👍👍👍 😊 😊
It's not hard to understand. 25 million Australians understand it.
let's rage buddy
Oi, mate~may I ask if whatdayawant is a little bit offensive way to say this? I learnt English in China, and teachers told me not to say “ what do you want “ bcz it’s rude. Is it?
Yeah it is. But you can use it if someone already betrayed or offended you and comes back to you for something .
Cool man
Have a chunder also another one is technicolour yawn.
so cute.. i just love the accent 😉
Eycee dee big blue eyes with dimples and a great smile.
i'm bloody oath! ya blue, drunka by wata, these and others slangs are very regional. means, ya blue = i'm ready to fight, drunka by wata = drink beer like as water. i said beer, is not beer, it's amba licoa. some slangs from south of sydney, very very regional
Hi mate how's it going brow
I’d say “pull your head in” if someone was saying something inappropriate or nasty to someone else.
Is it just me or he looks A LOT like Matthew Santoro on the thumpnail?
It is like the British accent.
I'm Aussie - 'Rack off Normie!!' is a polite way of saying 'Please p**s off, you're annoying me in the extreme!
Drongo is a bird.
Martin Wallace since when??
in british english "mug" implies a foolish or naive person,someone who does anything others ask them to do...
.
Ang gwapo niya
Whip ya Baldo
bloody oath mate!!
A lot of these terms are ancient...Pre 2000....When SNAGS, or others were a thing...
G'day more movies about animals in Oz

oooooh I like the vid, but I find it a bit subjective. Different age classes use slang differently, and I really can only speak for Queenslanders. This is what I hear in Queensland on a spectrum of Never - Rarely - Sometimes - Usually - Always:
G'day mate
Kids and young adults: Absolutely never
Middle age: Rarely
Old people: Sometimes
He's blotto
Everyone: Absolutely never
Ya lil' rippa!
Kids and young adults: Always
Middle age: Usually
Old people: Rarely
Rack/buzz/bugger off
Everyone: Always
Fair dinkum
Kids and young adults: Rarely
Middle age: Rarely
Old people: Sometimes
Pull ya head in
Kids and young adults: Usually
Middle age: Sometimes
Old people: Never
Wanna rage
Everyone: Absolutely never
Bloody oath
Kids and young adults: Always
Middle age: Always
Old people: Never
Your shout ('shout'ing in general)
Everyone: Always
Go on
Everyone: Always, but not in that context; 'go on' usually means 'keep explaining'
You pong
Kids and young adults: Rarely
Middle age: Usually
Old people: Sometimes
Whatcha want/whadayawant?
Everyone: Always
Have a chunder
Everyone: Absolutely never. We say barf, vom, spew or throw up.
Give it a [crack] ya mug
Kids and young adults: Always. fyi 'mug' means wimp.
Middle age: Always
Old people: Rarely
How ya goin?
Everyone: Always
You drongo
Kids and young adults: Never
Middle age: Sometimes
Old people: Rarely
:)
Jihyo's voice is better than nutella and jam Love your name 😂
Drongo has nothing to do with being dimwitted or slow. It's about actions. If your actions can be seen to be dimwitted rather than actually being dimwitted, then you're a drongo. At the same time, it's been years since I heard this one.
Yes this site is good to teach the Yanks how to understand us
How about a video with subtitles in Englsh? There are many things that i don't undertand, because my lisening is not good.
I am cactus. - is it aussie way ?
I'd use cactus to describe something that is beyond repair or if referring to myself totally exhausted.
I would say I’m gonna chuck ..not I’m gonna chunder
Rage? WTF?!! It's going out 'Raging / Partying'...As I said earlier, it's older slang from the 90's....
