While you're here
Genuine, true, no word of a lie. Also a question: "Fair dinkum?"
No. Starting with yeah makes it sound a bit more friendly.
Afternoon. Used heaps by basically everyone.
Petrol station. Also where you buy a pie, milk and a bag of ice at 11pm.
Toilet. Traditionally an outhouse down the back of the yard, now any toilet at all.
Used to explain something that's chaotic or a complete mess.
