Australian Slang

A long list of Aussie slang. (I chose only slang that I know of...some of it I didn't even realise was Australian)
There's a lot, including obscure ones, so if you manage it all good job!
there are quite a few ones meaning 'idiot' (definitely not a hint 🙂‍↔️)
sometimes words can have many meanings so please comment if you think you have a valid translation that didn't work!!

Good quiz, but missing some synonyms for the questions.

i.e i put 'go ahead' for 'knock yourself out' which didn't work.

i.e i put 'don't care' for 'fussed' which didn't work.

maybe give some idea for what the word actually is.

hiii! tysm for commenting & taking the quiz; I have added in your synonyms alongside a LOT of others (which I forgot to do initially)! Do you want to give an example of your suggestion for giving an idea as to what the word is? It sounds like an amazing idea though, I just don't exactly know what you mean ☺️ tyyy
