Regional dialects

[hks_kansei]

post some sayings/terms used in your area, and what they mean.

Australia:

cack - faeces (as in "i cacked my dacks")
Dacks - pants/trousers
roo - kangaroo
bugger - used in a similar way to "damn" (note- can also be used to describe inter-species intercourse)
Donger - penis

and my favourite, rhyming slang:
snake's hiss - piss (urinate) (often shortened to "snake's")
hey diddle diddle - piddle (urinate)
on my pat malone - i'm alone
bristol cities - titties (breasts) (often shortened to "bristols")


and more, i've got a book with 527 pages of Australian words.

this pissed me off. Those are redneck terms. I am no where near a redneck. If you came to me like that, I'd laugh at you.

wow.. that sucks. and i agree with drew; if anyone comes to me talking like that they're gonna get laughed at. the only slang term i can think of is one that got me some strange looks in high school.

hour = the length of one high school class (usu. ref. as a "period")
