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

  2. "Shit house" was perfectly clear to all the children at school, but perhaps best not to say to a teacher or parent.

    1. Yep as a child I thought some grown ups got their knickers in a knot over little things like saying "shit house"

    1. It seems strange to me that other people don't know what some of my everyday words mean
