Aussie Slang Pt 1 for 2024


For a little while this year I will continue to share some Aussie Slang words and phrases, why because I am only up to S in my list of slang and I can't leave it there.

She'll be right: To turn out ok

Shit House: To be of poor quality, unenjoyable as in this car is a shit house, a broken, run down mess. It also means toilet.........Der

Der: I don't think I have covered Der before it means stupid or obvious

Snag: A sausage

Spag Bol: Spaghetti Bolognese
