Good morning it is time for some more Aussie Slang.


Quid: Money


Reckon: You bet, absolutely


Rello or Rellie: A family member


Ripper: Great fantastic


Rollie: A cigarette you roll yourself.

  1. I use all of your words all the time, except for anything to do with cigarettes. I wonder which communities used rellies (I do) and which used rellos.

  2. Reckon is commonly used here down south, especially. But I think the meaning is a little different. More like thinking or think.

  3. You hear 'reckon' quite a bit here in the southern part of the US too : ) Have a great day!

  4. As others have mentioned, we use the word reckon in the South, but it means something very different, Jo-Anne. Rita has it right!
