Regards Elaine.

but the thread reads "Australian Slang " not what some has made up.

Shheesh mate, what's up with you, is it my turn for your treatment.

 

I will type this very slowly so you can understand.......... the slang words I provided were the EXACTLY the same as your "corrections" only I didn't include the adjectives "bloody and real" in one definition and an example of the way this word is used in the other.

 

So no, you are incorrect, I didn't "make them up" as you suggested.

 

So what is your problem?
