[bk_blue]

Bloody oath it does! :D

I'll join you in stopping the puppy mills, we need to get all the dogs outta there first and then we can bomb the GeorgeW out of it.

Here's another piece of pure aussie for you guys to practice, "strewth mate, you blokes are grouse, I'm dinkum. Maybe we could all get together and crack a slab and flap our gums for a while."

No aussie actually talks like that but it's fun to say we do. :wink:

[bk_blue]

Not bad K- if it was an Aussiespeak exam I'd just correct the "blokes"- technically it does men men, but in this sense, everybody.
Grouse= excellent
:D :D :D

you will have to teach us some Dutch colloquialisms!

[ArtfulDodger]

K,
you've done very well in the aussiespeak exam. I was under the impression you were an american?? Obviously not, well, obvious because bk_blue mentioned Dutch above.

Now, just to inform our USA buddies, Steve Erwin the crocodile hunter was famous in the states before we had ever heard of him in Australia.

I'd like to stress that ABSOLUTELY NOBODY else in Ausralia is like him, he's an overanimated buffoon that makes good television. Please don't judge us by old stevie. :wink:

Mind you he does hunt pigs with a nice staffy cross so he can't be all bad.

CRIKEY!!!!! :D

...or Crocodile Dundee, or John Howard, or any other embarrassing "Australian" icon. 8)

K- I think your English is excellent, I also used to think you were an American living in Europe.

Yes K,
grouse is a game bird but for some reason australians have adopted it to substitute for excellent. We now say excellent when we are referring to game birds, as you can imagine it all gets very confusing. :wink:
"I shot this grouse excellent the other day when we went excellent shooting, it was grouse. When we cooked it the excellent tasted grouse, a bit like chicken."

Actually "grouse" isn't used much in west australia where I'm from, I think it's more for "t'othersiders" like bk.

YOU'RE DUTCH?Ok sorry, I never knew that. :oops: I KNOW KARATE!!]Lets get the dogs out and bomb them, then we'll finish the leftovers with a few good kicks.Seriously, I do.I was up to green belt..lost interest :lol:

[wildbunch]

I'm a bit late, but I'm more than ready. Now which country to start with first?
K Your dutch? Wow didn't know! Was always curious what NL stood for.
Now my vote is to give them a taste of their own medicine. Tie them with a chain out in the cold. Then bomb the h*** out their houses.

Then we take them out to the backcountry and let them fend for themselves as their dogs have had too many times before.
HeHeHe, just had a thought. Maybe we should let the dogs have their fun with them first, huh?
We're going to have to do something, because no one else will.
P.S. Artful: I worked with an aussie horse trainer for a little while, nicest guy and so good with the animals. Love the accent. Us americans are crazy for those foreign tongues. :oops:

[wildbunch]

Just had to post this. K & Artful (if they are ever on opposite sides in a topic)

Too cute!

[wildbunch]

K.....

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
No clue!

[bk_blue]

I wish I spoke Dutch. Unfortunately when my great-grandparents came out on the boat they decided to immerse themselves completely in Anglo culture and never spoke much Dutch at all afterwards. I can understand why- racism and trying to fit in would have been horrible especially in a little Aussie country town- but I wish the language could have been passed down. :(

[ArtfulDodger]

I have a soft spot for foreign tongues too wildbunch :wink:
There's nothing quite as enticing as an unfamiliar tongue.

I was born in Uganda and left for Australia when I was 9ish, I was quite fluent in swahilli apparently, I hardly know a word these days but apparently my parent's used to use me as the interpreter when the Ugandans were being stubborn and not speaking English. (english is the main language there but alot still speak swahilli too)
Anyway, for the Ugandans out there "Jambo, Habari asanta sani"
excuse the spelling, my wahilli aint what it used to be. :wink:

Yes K, again that reply was from me and not guest, I'm a newbie so I keep forgetting how to log on etc.
As for K and myself getting into a stoush, I will say one thing "The female of the species is more deadly than the male."

Gigi I only know Dutch and English o.k. my American and Australian is coming along nicely :wink: ..I know a few words in french and a few in Afrikaans (can get by) and a few in German (can read it better than speak it) and I know the names of all my favorite Sushi (does that count as Japanese :D )

Is there much English spoken over there in Europe?

[Guest Anonymous]
