(Translation - Okay my friend, get yourself a cold drink, something to eat, and sit back and have a try at  "Speaking Australian"...  Lets stop messing around, and have a genuine attempt.)

Us fellas and sheilas down under tend to leave off  the last letters of some of our words. We shorten them when ever we can, cos we are too lazy to say the whole word! (plus it's much easier to talk this way when we are drunk). Here's a couple of examples translated from English to Aussie:

G'Day - (hello or good day to you)            Sanger - (sandwich)
Ambo - (ambulance)   Reckon - (you think so)
Brekkie - (breakfast)   Wanna - (want to)
Gonna - (going to)   Arvo - (afternoon)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Example: Hello my friend, do you want to come over this afternoon for some lunch and a cold drink?

Aussie: G'day mate, ya wanna lob in this arvo for a sanger and a tinnie?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Example: (boss to employee) Could you please stay back later this evening, I have an extra job I need finished?

(employee) I'm sorry, but I have plans this evening... so no, I will be unable to....

Aussie:(boss to employee) Hey Cobber, ya reckon ya can hang a round a bit longer tonight, gotta rush job in?

(employee) Got buckleys mate, goin out for a heart starter with me mates... so, no can do mate...
