Summary

Australian slang unites the true blue and dinky-di and seperates the cheeky little possums from the happy little Vegemites. When we use slang, we're connecting with the diggers enjoying a glass of wine in the villages of France (plonk) and the Indigenous Dharug-speakers of Sydney locating one another with a familiar cry (within cooee). Learn to distinguish your drongos from your dropkicks in this handy pictorial guide to Australian slang
