2. He's hitting on her.
   He's trying to figure out if she's lying.

In Australian English, to "crack onto someone" means you're coming on to or flirting with someone. And no matter what language or culture you're in, it takes some smooth moves to do this right. Bonus: Sheila is slang for a woman.

1. Barry, it's your girlfriend!
   Barry, your phone is ringing!
2. Barry, you're up for karaoke!
   Barry, it's your turn to buy a round of drinks!

One Aussie slang rule is similar to how Brits create nicknames: take the "r" in a name and make it a double "z." So Barry becomes Bazza, Terry becomes Tezza, etc. And then "shouting" is to buy a round of drinks.

1. Vomited or threw up
   Threw a boomerang
2. Put out the garbage
   Called into work sick

"Chuck a sickie" or "to pull a sickie" means to call into work sick. "Sickie" itself means a sick day from work. And usually, if you're chucking a sickie, you're not really sick.

1. Make clam chowder
   Vomit
2. Leave the table

1. Complaining or whining
   Wheezing
2. Going to the bathroom
   Laughing

"Whinging" is not only an Aussie word, but it's a British word, too. And that's where Australians got the word from. The etymology of the word comes from an older German word that means "to groan."

   A cart
2. A pickup truck
   A ukulele

1. A boss
   A bag full of fake rats
2. A bad, dishonest person
   A mischievous, sassy person

Sook can also be a noun, meaning that you're a crybaby or you're too sensitive. Sook can also mean that you're a coward, or it can mean that you're inoffensive. Also, we hope you got that Cab Sav = Cabernet Sauvignon, so the friend is having a glass of red wine.

1. A fun party

1. A commuter
   An office worker
2. A cartoon character
   Young surfer

In Australian slang, a grommet is a young surfer. Another term for this person would be shark biscuit, and specifically they would be a new surfer (sometimes this is used dismissively).

1. Have a tantrum
   Got sick
2. Lost his job
   Had too much to drink

When someone "spits the dummy," they have are having a tantrum, a fit of anger. This can also be seen as an overreaction to a situation. And a "dummy" is a pacifier in Australia.

1. You're welcome!
   Yes!
2. Bye!
   Thanks!

If you're familiar with the Winnie the Pooh character, you're probably think "ta" means goodbye (TTFN, ta ta for now!) But in Australia, "ta" is a shortened version of thanks.

1. I didn't do it.
   I look great, don't I?
2. Everything's great.
   I'm really tired.

"There's no flies on me" is the Aussie way of saying "don't look at me, I didn't do it." It's also a way to say in a group situation, I'm not the missing or weak link here.

1. Huh?
   Yes!

Aussie have a lot of colorful and off-color phrases. Sparrow fart is Aussie slang, but it's also British slang that comes from 19th century UK.

1. Run off, make off
   Ignore you
2. Make a call
   Be mean

Choof looks to be derivation of the verb chuff, which means to make loud breathing sounds, like a steam engine chugging along. So to choof off is to hurriedly move along.

   In good condition
2. Banged up a bit, has some nicks
   Is askew or in disarray

"In good nick" is from 19th century Australian English, but the etymology is intriguing. It seems to be related to breeding racehorses, meaning the offspring of a crossbred horse would be a good nick.

1. Middle of nowhere
   Just a few minutes away
2. In the next town over
   An hour or less away

Woop Woop (a desolate, out of the way place, like the bush or outback) has some interesting etymological origins including that Woop Woop was a mythical town in the outback. Another is that it's the name of an abandoned sawmill in Wilga, Western Australia. Other Aussie terms for the middle of nowhere are "Never-Never" and "Back O'Bourke."

1. Amphibians
   The restroom
2. The road (they're leaving)
   The couch or bed for a nap

Aussie slang has a lot of rhyming words for the intended words. So time to hit the frog and toad is a rhyme for road. And it's a funny juxtaposed image that has nothing to do with "hitting the road."

1. This guy is very skinny.
   This guy is hilarious.
2. This guy is an honest person.
   This guy is crazy.

In Aussie slang, the word has to do with the truth, e.g., the straight Griffin is the truth. Similarly, someone who is fair "plays it straight."

2. When you're tired or sleepy

'Stone the crows" can also be used as a phrase of annoyance (e.g., gosh darn it). The origin of this meaning would be more literal from a farming perspective because crows kill and eat newborn lambs. Otherwise, stone the crows as an exclamation of surprise is just as sensical as "I'll be a monkey's uncle."

1. Mozzarella sticks
   Microphones
2. Mosquitoes
   Mushroom burgers

It's another diminutive Aussie term. Mozzies is a slang word short for mosquitoes, and as you can imagine with an island nation, with some parts more tropical than others, mosquitoes are plenteous in Australia. There are over 300 species of mosquitoes there!

1. Seatbelt
   Grab handle/roof handle
2. Car door handle
   The steering wheel

There are other names for the grab handle or roof handle of your car, one we can't repeat here, but it's an exclamation. And this is the same idea calling them Jesus bars or Jesus Christ bars, with the name being an exclamation.

1. Are you ready to go?
   Can we split the bill?
2. Do you need another drink?
   Honestly? Truly?

   Giving someone the middle finger
2. Mooning someone
   Waving hello

The Aussie salute is also known as the Bush salute as well as the Barcoo salute, named for a river in Queensland. The disease-carrying Australian bush fly (Musca vetustissima) is why the Aussie salute exists. Because it's attracted to body fluids, the bush fly can fly into one's mouth or eyes.

1. A toast
   A curse
2. An exclamation of surprise or emphasis
   A greeting

Strewth is from East End cockney and is a slang word for Brits, Aussies, and Kiwis (New Zealanders). It's a mashed-up way of saying "God's truth." It's similar to saying, "I swear to God!" but it can also be like saying "whoa" or "shoot."

1. Go away
   Annoyed
2. A party
   All of the above are correct definitions

In Australia, the word "piss" can be used in many ways, such as "piss off" means to go away, scram, get lost. "Pissed off" means that your annoyed or angry (and you probably recognize that one if you're an American). A piss up is a party or get together, "piece of piss" means easy (e.g. easy as pie), "pissed" means to be drunk or inebriated and "to piss" means to urinate.

1. Cut out the drama and stop whining.
   No worries, friend. It will all be alright.
2. It's all so dramatic. I don't envy you.
   You're way too dramatic for me. So I need to leave.

"No dramas" means "no worries" or don't worry about it. "She'll be apples" means everything will be OK. "She'll be right" is another way to say it'll be alright.

1. A poor showing at a game or match
   A type of cheer or chant
2. An unlikely win
   Unsportsmanlike celebrating

This Aussie phrase is a recent one, from the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, with Australia's short track speed skater, Steven Bradbury. An unlikely contender in his race, he had the luck of all the other competitors falling in the last corner of the gold medal race, where he crossed first. The winner of Australia's first gold medal at the Winter Games is now a phrase about pulling out an unlikely win.

1. Carelessly
   Extravagantly
2. Frugally
   In filth

This phrase is for Australians and New Zealanders. The origins seem to be a phrase to describe great fuel economy from a car, "run on the smell of an oily rag."

1. You should stay around.
   You need to run an errand for them.
2. Let's go on a bike ride together.
   Leave, now!

Another phrase with British origins, "on ya bike" is not a kind way to tell someone to get going. In fact, it's a pretty rude way to tell someone to leave. If someone is still trying to talk to you, you can follow it up with, "tell your story walkin'!"
