Why do Aussies answer their own questions ? |
Travel Info They say things like "whats your name sheila ? Whats your favorite coulour blue ? What do you do for a job digger ? most confusing ! Travel Tips heehee not all aussies talk like that, I certainly don't - perhaps in the bush but in the city and suburbia we certainly do not talk like that Others Sounds like you don't know the meaning of these words. They are local slang terms. Every country has some slang "Sheila" means girl. "blue" means questioner does not know your name so is calling you blue to add some color to the question. "digger" just means a soldier but nowadays it means "guy" or "man" http://www.koalanet.com.au/australian-sl... your pulling my chain chump! You must have met a few that talk like that. I can assure you not all Aussies speak that way. It's like us listening to person from Taxes speaking but, not all Americans speak with the same accent and all have their ways of saying something different to others. I'd say you're easily confused. This is the second time you've asked this question. At least your spelling has improved. LOL Give the first answer the 10 points! Well explained! Cheers, mate! |
