The first part of the research deals with the definition and etymology of the word ‘slang’, the purpose of slang and its main characteristics, as well as the history of Australian slang. In the second part, an Australian food slang classification consisting of five categories is provided: -ie/-y/-o and other abbreviations, words that underwent phonetic change, words with new meaning, Australian rhyming slang, and words of Australian origin. The definitions of each word and examples from the corpora and various dictionaries are provided. The paper also dwells on such particular cases as regional varieties of the word ‘sausage’ (including the map of sausages) and drinking slang. Keywords: Australian food slang, Australian English, varieties of English, linguistic and culture studies. Australian slang is a vivid and picturesque part of an extremely fascinating variety of English. Just like Australian English in general, the slang Down Under is influenced by both British and American varieties. Australian slang started as a criminal language, it moved to Australia together with the British convicts. Naturally, the attitude towards slang was negative – those who were not part of the criminal culture tried to exclude slang words from their vocabulary. First and foremost, it had this label of criminality and offense. This attitude only changed after the World War I, when the soldiers created their own slang, parts of which ended up among the general public.

Examples include sexual slang used in a description by a child and an Internet Relay Chat 18 containing a conspiracyFor to murder.

These roles are identified as 22 linguist as naïve interpreter, lexicographer, case researcher and cultural mediator. Each of these 23 roles is suggestive of different strategies that might be used from consulting formal slang 24 dictionaries and less formal Internet sources, to collecting case specific corpora and examining all 25 26 the extraneous material in a particular case.

  • IO473T-Slang.Pdf
    Inside Out e-lesson Week starting: 7th February 2011 1. Slang This week’s lesson introduces some examples of slang words from British, American and Australian English. Level Pre-intermediate and above (equivalent to CEF level A2–B1 and above) How to use the lesson 1. Introduce the concept of slang by giving a few examples of English slang words that your students are probably already familiar with: ‘cool’, ‘guy’, etc. Ask the students for the meanings of these words, then ask for other examples of English slang (again checking the meanings in every case). Can the students remember where they learned the English slang they already know? How much slang do they use in their own language? In what contexts would they expect slang to be used, and in what contexts do they think it shouldn’t be used? Have they ever heard slang in their own language being used by a foreigner, and if so, how did it sound? 2. Divide the students into pairs and hand out Worksheet A. Explain that the sentences include examples of British, American and Australian slang, and that in Exercise 1 they should try to use the context of the sentences to match the words to the definitions. Alert the students that some of the definitions are in a different form to the slang terms, for example a different verb tense or singular versus plural. Note that some of the slang will reappear on Worksheet B. 3. Check answers in open class. You might want to mention that some slang used more frequently in one English-speaking country is generally understood in others (for example, ‘24/7’, ‘buddy’), while other slang words might be much less familiar outside their country of origin (for example, ‘knackered’).
