Australian Slang

A long list of Australian Slang.

It wasn’t easy but we’ve tried to include uniquely Australian slang here and to exclude British and American slang even though these are commonly used in Australia. We see no point in informing the world that “fridge” is Australian slang for a “refrigerator”.

Here are a few that might come in handy:

  • Bog in: commence eating, to attack food with enthusiasm
  • Dunny: outside lavatory
  • Liquid laugh: vomit
  • Mystery bag: a sausage
  • Tinny: can of beer
  • Ute: utility vehicle, pickup truck
