Welcome to a new sub-series of my blog. It is called "Aussie Word Of The Day"! Today I was reminded of the many great Australian words in the English language that are unique to our culture and country, and felt that since the rest of the world is so deprived of such amazingness, that I would be kind and share our jewels of lingual greatness for all to enjoy.
So I shall be posting an Australian English word with it's uniquely Australian meaning as a regular segment from now on. All definitions will be from the Australian Oxford Mini Dictionary (4th Edition, 2011).
And so here it is: the first Australian Word Of The Day (or AWOTD for short):
Aussie colloq. n. Australia, Australian person. adj. Australian.
Don't worry, they will get much more wild and exciting than that ;)
