When you say Yorkshire, pudding immediately comes to mind. You'll find the less formal the more slang would be used. An example of the level of overusing of a single term (probably used in britain) could come in the form of "piss". Taking the piss= joking. Take a piss = going to the toilet. Pissing down = heavy raining. Getting pissed= Getting drunk. Pissed off = angry. Piss off = telling someone to go away. On the piss = drinking beer. Piss poor = low quality. Piss farting around = wasting time.

Bogan is pronounced, bow as in a bow in your hair, and gan as in Gandalf. Bow Gan. Although usually the A is dropped, hence bog’n…. Sanger does not have a hard G. Sheila is pretty old school.

A dag is definitely not a geek. They might share the same fashion sense, but not the same intelligence. It can also be used fondly, such as for a friend who is a bit unstreetwise , gullible or out of touch with the real world. Said directly to someone, it would be taken as almost an endearment. Said about someone behind their back would be taken as an insult. Daggy fashion sense is a stand alone area of dagginess and anyone can be guilty of this at times.

Quite a few of these are no longer used in big cities - particularly in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney as they are more ethnically diverse!

It’s been the best decision we ever made. I’m in Yanchep which is a beautiful place a lot different from where we came from in Manchester but would never go back to the Uk. Stay positive it will all come together and you will be on your way here.

Hi Hun, Home Affairs is always this crazy. I was born in Beckenham Kent to Irish parents. My parents brought me to Australia when I was three, and I was a permanent resident for all this time. I went to school, got married, and had all my four children here, got a degree at Uni, but when I started having trouble proving I was a permanent resident to get jobs, I thought I should get citizenship. Well, I had a hell of a time, they were nasty, and they kept being cynical about me. What the! I wasn't a 3 year old terrorist that snuck in the country. Then my family got me a migration agent. It still took time, but eventually last year, I became an Australian Citizen. Woohoo!! All worth it!! I would never live anywhere else!!
