Check out today’s Teatime Titbit: Fun on Friday:
If there’s one accent I adore in the English speaking world, it’s the Australian one. To the untrained hear the first encounter could be tricky, especially if they speak quickly using their short forms and slang.
In this interview Aussie hero Daniel McConnell recounts how he helped police catch a vandal in nothing but his jocks. Just take a listen https://teatimetitbits.de/ and here are a few words to help you along.
undies = jocks = underpants
bloke = man
mate = friend
to scoot = to quickly leave/go
40 odd = just over 40
bar = except for
cheers = thanx
Here’s a lesson for us all from our Aussie mate, “You look after your mates & your mates will look after you.”
Have a great Friday & weekend.
