Some Help With Australian Lingo

Don't get into a blue. Know a bit of Strine and you'll be fine.
In a pub you could get asked to shout. Don't holler your head off. You're just being reminded it's your turn to pay for the next round of drinks.

If you're visiting Australia and are non-Australian but you do speak English, you should have no real problem understanding the local lingo. (We try to make sure we use only words that we think are common to your kind and our kind of English.)

Hopefully this next section helps you to better understand the Australian use of the language, and try and keep you out of trouble!
