G'day!

These pages are devoted to the more colourful and outrageous phrases and sayings we use in Australia. You don't hear so much of it nowadays, (though it is good to see some Australian soaps & dramas are using slang and sayings, like Blue Heelers for example), so I thought I would develop and maintain a list so that people could have a chuckle and remind Australians what we might be losing.

Use the 'List' and 'Site' links at the bottom of the page to get around if your web browser doesn't support frames.

You can browse the lists, find out more about this site, submit your own Australian Sayings and vote for your favourites. See the instructions if you can't work it out.

Download these two fonts, and in this handy zip file to see these pages in a new light! They really are attractive fonts especially designed for the screen viewing. The Microsoft web site makes extensive use of them.

No apology is made for the nature of any phrases or sayings on these pages. Read at your own risk! ;-) Please read the Kid Safe list if you are easily offended.

Thanks for visiting!

 Malcolm.
