EasyUni Staff
When in a foreign country, it’s always helpful to have some knowledge of the language spoken to make it easier for you to get around, fit in and make your life just a little more comfortable. In Australia, though they speak English, you might be surprised how different some words are compared to the English that you learned or watched from the telly. Aussies love to shorten words and come up with new meanings for those words. To help you out, we’ve come up with a list of the most popular words and phrases used Down Under - I suggest you learn these so you don’t get confused or worse, get smacked for saying the wrong thing.
