Yep, Esky was a brand name (I remember that my parents had one in the 80s) but it became generalised to refer to any kind of cooler. I'd never heard 'couldn't be stuffed' until I moved from Qld to Canberra. I'm in Vic these days but use it all the time. 'Buggered' is kinda rude in a formal context (e.g. job interview) but not around friends.
Yeah, 100% agree with you re: esky and bugger. I'd probably avoid it in very formal situations, but go to it instead of other swear words when i don't want to be really rude. It's interesting you didn't hear 'can't be stuffed' up in Qld. I always thought it was used everywhere in Aus.
@@AussieEnglishPodcast no can't be stuffed is used more in the ACT NSW and VIC other places have other ways of saying the same thing but as i have been up for 29 hrs at the time of tying this message i cant remember what the term they use is i only know a few people from the other states most people i talk to are not Aussies or are new here so they cant help with me not remembering
Australian living in Switzerland and enjoying your renditions of the language which is my mother tongue. It does, in fact, remind me that I am Australian and that half of what I say is in truth Australian English. Luvvin' ya werk, don't go changin'.
Awesome vid!!!!! yep, just as Fiona Em said : Esky was an Australian brand of portable coolers.(...) Esky brand was purchased by Coleman, an American brand, in 2009
Just found your channel mate. Fair go mate, we use pretty well all those over here in Nz. Nothing new. Woke up this morning and turned out to be a "bonza " day, after a crappie start. A mate got me on the blower and invited me round for a barbie. I grabbed me chilly bin, chucked some ice in and a few beers and snags and shot over to his place. He moans about the heat. No probs for me. I come from Marble Bar. Anyway ta for sharing mate. Just going to blow the froth off a couple of cold ones. Have a good one.
Thanks Pete, this is was I searched for, the meaning of BUGGER, because I often heard from my aussie ex girlfriend, she always says that word when she feel surprise or when she cranky
love your videos mate, I have been living in Canada for few years now and found out there are so many things are different as compared to back home. even vegetable names lol Capsicum is Bell pepper lol. cheers mate doing great job.
Bugger isn’t rude in the UK, as such. I grew up saying, bugger off, meaning ‘go away’. All the same otherwise, right down to cheeky bugger. I’ve never heard it in anger, it’s too humorous for usage. It’s a versatile word in London as well. We always use naughty parts too for words: Nob Cu** Bell end Etc
The word 'ta' was a word used by parents to teach their little children to say thank you as they couldn't say the words 'thank you' yet.. Whenever I hear anyone of teenage years or above say it, it reminds me of a kid in nappies :)
When I was a Kid a Bottleo was a bloke who got around on a horse and cat collecting bottles for recycling but that was before bottle shops were allowed.

We also say Chuck a sickie. I don't feel like going to work today so I think I will chuck a sickie and go to the beach. Chuck is the slang word for throw
Struth good vid! In Vic I barely hear togs, everyone I come accross says bathers. I have heard a few old codgers use bugger the old way. I usually use the word bugger for humour. Bugger me undies!
i did not know full meaning of bugger hahaha but I never found Bugger as rude honestly. I use it all the time mate " ohh bugger, i forgot me phone in the car" etc
You must be from Victoria. Bathers/togs? No way, mate. They're always cozzies around here. Never heard of "can't be stuffed" used that way, but I couldn't give a bugger really
I'm loving listening to this... & I'm Aussie.. from Bundy!! LOL... I wonder if esky may have come from the Igloo brand of eskies? I'd never given it any thought .. til now LOL I use bugger (bugga) all the time.. bugger off, I'm buggered (stuffed), what a bugger! (a scoundrel or maybe a mishap), can't be buggered (bothered).. & much more. Never think of it as rude... though I've known where the word came from. F.U.C.K. was originally a legal term... For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge.... well eff me!! LOL Oh I love that ad!! Every non Aussie needs to hear this LOL... it's so true!! I think I'll send it to some American friends I'm doing vids with soon lol My fav thing is telling my US mates that I'm putting my thongs on to go outside ... or stuff like that LOL ... Mikki (not Steve lol)
In SA we used to say 'chucked a sickie' Bugger is not a swear word to us. 'Bugger off mate' is not swearing! Or 'bugger I forgot to put sauce on the snags!'
A German student asked what an esky was my friend said it is something to take your tinies in to sit on the hill at the Gabba he did not understand a word
Yep! The word 'ta' was a word used here by parents to teach their little children to say thank you as they couldn't say the words 'thank you' yet. Whenever I hear anyone of teenage years or above say it, it reminds me of a kid in nappies and I wonder why they are still talking like that :)

Ta : I thought this is also use as :bye ? Sometimes ? Buggers: yeah I thought this is more use in a funny way, never realised this can be rude. But thanks !!!
arvo, servo ,bottle _o , mozzie, bathers/toge, chockers, barbie, esky, can't be stuffed ,pull a sickie, ta, I know just three words before arvo ,mozzie and barbie. Taaaa peter
Bathers= togs= cossie= swimmers. You forgot swimmers. I'd usually say swimmers or cossie. I do use bugger. Generally as an exclamation. I know that it also means a particular act of homosexual sex, but I'm never using that meaning when I say it. I rarely think of/remember that about bugger. So I'd say on the whole you're right. Grouse video. Ta.
Not t unless your as old as fuck. But you can still call a older male Old Mate. Only when discussing them with someone else. Eg...look at old mate over there.
The word Buggery comes from the act of two males having penetrative sex. It used to be illegal in most of the world and in a lot of places it still is :)

Yeah, Esky is kinda the same with other things like Kleenex, Q-Tips, Ziploc, Tupperware, list goes on
A lot of these are very common in England and the UK too, especially bugger. It's a versatile word for sure

Great work, mate!
Hi dear
Can we use these slang in ielts writing as well as speaking or not? Plz reply
Be careful with "bathers". It is only used in some parts of Australia. In Sydney, for example, people use the term "cossies".
Struth good vid! In Vic I barely hear togs, everyone I come accross says bathers. I have heard a few old codgers use bugger the old way. I usually use the word bugger for humour. Bugger me undies!

Also go to buggery.
Bugger, we brasilians use this word the same way. Funny

Bathers is pretty Victorian I think. Cossies or swimmers in Sydney, and of course Boardies for Board shorts
Togs in Qld

Esky was the brand name of one of the first drink coolers. Just as Brits Hoover their floors. 😊
The bottle-O is chock-a-block of guys in Bathers ! Lmao!
Cossies! 😉
I used to live in Bris for 8 yrs and I used Ta, Arvo, Barbie, sanga etc. I didn't realize until I moved back to my home town, and no one understands 🤣
NICE! But here's some English for you, It's known as a cook-out, Bar-B-Que, is something you eat.

No, that's the Poms (English)
Its good to say the B👍💪🇦🇺🙂
Ta Cobber, this was Bonza.
"Who's the silly bugger who told this bugger to bugger off?!"
Some Australians might say let's go to dan Murphy's or off to dan Murphy's
Ta, interesting words
Some of us already know most of these.
I was playing this video in background and when I heard bugger I thought it’s a foreign slang imported from Japan 🤣it sounds sooo similar to “Stupid” in Japanese
Even as an house person I know all what it means. I guess a lot of us would tbh
That’s not a knife, THIS is a knife!😅
There is no way to have a proper picnic without an esky
I would say Chuck a sickie not pull a sickie
I feel like "Bugger" is more like tradie word.
I hear this word from one of tradie friend of mine saying by every sentences.

Does young people use “bugger off”?
I’ll Chuck a sickie this arvo. Got an esky chocker full of coldies and the boss can bugger off.
