Very interesting video Emma! I did not know all these Australian slang espressions! It is always useful to learn them. Bikki is a very nice word indeed. Thank you so much.

[@jahidaakter3742]

"Bikkie and Sanga", were sounding more amazing to me. They'd been used several times then! Thanks for this cooperative lesson, Emma! Hopya see again.

I learn the British slang (with Lucy, you know her well) and the Aussie slang as well, it's common now for me. Of course, my separate gratitude for the PDF, I always use PDFs if they come along with your videos, truly! Keep up your excellent work, Emma! My kisses for you!🥰

I'm an Aussie & am partial to 'chockers' (I spell it that way, not the way you did!) 'Spewing' is a terrific throwback to my 80s teenage years 😁 And of course, who doesn't love 'taking the piss'? 😂

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

Hey, mate! I actually went back and forth on the spelling of chokkas/checkers 😂 I wonder if the nation would be as divided as we are on parmie/parma?!!! What d’ya reckon?

Oh, this evening I feel under the pump 🤪 I'll have to come back to this video because you pushed me away from my comfort zone 😅 Thank you so much Emma for this interesting lesson 👍

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

If I've pushed you outside of your comfort zone, I'm happy! That is where real learning happens! If Australian Slang is not essential knowledge for you (as in, you don't live in Australia or talk to Australians often) then it's good to know this slang exists (so you can ask about it when you encounter it) but you don't need to study/remember/use it yourself! Prioritise the English words and phrases that are relevant to you ❤️

[@jean-yveslegall2562]

@@mmmEnglish_Emma thank you for taking care of me with your answer Emma, you made my day 😎

[@honza8832]

Dear Madam Teacher Emma,thanks a lot for this marvellous lesson! For example -one of my favourite slang words is : legend ( so nice and cute).I think (my humble opinion),that Australia is great place with great people. I admire YOU and I admire Australians. God Bless Australia. Warm greetings from the Central Europe. Have a beautiful time.

[@MentalFormula]

Emma I love your channel you really teach English so clearly and easy to remember but I live in Canada and I dont know which phrases and slangs could be mutual. Do you have any recommendations for me to better use your videos?

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

If you take a look at the workbook, I’ve included some notes about the words that are common across other “Englishes” 😊

[@chyldstudios]

Do most of these words have a similar etymological origin, i.e., do they typically source from England or America or are they without any external linguistic contamination?

[@JustJokes-bw4fs]

I'm Australian with a British family. I hope Emma answers this, I'd be interested. What I know (which is little) is that some is from UK. We obviously used to have a lot of influence from the UK. Like rhyming slang (when she said...I'm going to hit the frog and toad - which means road) That is very British. Some words (not necessarily slang) are the same as words used in America (but not as many when compared to the UK.) Then Australia has developed (and adapted) their own language as well. I'd love Emma to give us stats and more detailed info on this.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

Brilliant answer! Some of these slang words and expressions are distinctly Australian (for example “sanga”) but quite a few are used in the UK too.

[@yvonnemartin362]

I like " wrap your laughing gear around that" it is do colorful...😊

[@neils5539]

Tight, knock off and one for the road are the only ones that are used exactly the same in American slang. Interesting how many of those are unique to Australia.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

Ahhhh I was wondering if “knock off” was common in the US too!!! You’ve just answered my question 🙏🏼

[@user-sv4gg1fj7j]

Good job

[@soujiroz9186]

That was carzy! Hahaha my favorite may be was the "a loose unit"

[@hufflepuffbee8384]

This is interesting because I’m from the UK and some of the phrases mean the exact same here like Telly and Taking the Piss but some have different meanings like tight means you’re frugal and cheap not you have a good relationship
