Aussie Slang

 


After a few stinking hot days, today will be much cooler with a top of 27 degrees instead of being in the low 30's. Today is the day for some Aussie slang.

Dobber: Someone who tells on others just to see them get into trouble


Kero: Kerosene


Milk Bar: Corner shop that sells take away food


Mongrel: Despicable person


Mug: A friendly insult or a gullible person
