    Grundies is short for Reg Grungies. When TV first started in Australia all the cop shows and dramas were produced by Reg Grundie. And because of our rhyming slang , Reg Grundies was sometimes used as slang for undies." Where's my Reg Grundies ?" "Did the dryer eat them again ?"

    As a young(ish) Australian I'd say like 80% of these slang terms are still is common usage and almost everyone knows them, at least the majority of them. There was a couple I didn't know but it can be due to regional/generational differences. Like in QLD we know what bathers, swimmers, cozzie (short for swimming costume) etc are but we usually use the word togs.

      @@python27auI spent almost twenty five years in Melbourne, working in the inner city, almost fifteen years in Perth, and in that time the only time I heard anyone use the word bonzer was on holiday in New Zealand. Even back in the early eighties Melbourne was full of new migrants with their own way of speaking, and in Perth you're more likely to hear an English sounding accent, and it definitely makes the accent less Aussie, which is a shame.
      I've worked with New South Welshmen in the mines and they seemed to have hung on to that familiar Aussie sound. Good on them. It's good to hear you and your mates still use the Aussie dialect.

      A dunny comes from slang for dunghill or dungheap. There was Historically a Tradesman in late Victorian early Edwardian times whose title was a night soil remover who had to clean the toilet..... Look it up., this was in the days before tippler toilets some examples are still operating in rural parts of Ireland. Predating the modern flushing toilet sewerage removal method.
      Clue where to find one look for an isolated tiny hut behind some older houses. Over a small running stream!

  • @redwarpy
    @redwarpy Год назад +24

    The dunny was originally any outside toilet. In cities and towns the pan-type dunny was emptied by the dunny man, who came round regularly with his dunny cart. Dunny can now be used for any toilet. The word comes from British dialect dunnekin meaning an 'earth closet, (outside) privy' from dung + ken 'house'. Old time camping grounds would have a toilet that was a large whole in the ground and we referred to them as Thunder Boxes due to the noise created.

Before outhouses there was the Gezunder, or bedpan, which goes under (gezunder) the bed.

They would come down the lane and access the little back door on the dunny, whipping out the full can and tossing it in the wagon. On more than one occasion scaring the living daylights of the occupant of the dunny at the time!😂 Maybe not as dangerous as my country girl Mum letting loose with the shotgun at a snake on the exterior of the outside thunderbox not knowing that her older brother was inside at the time!😂

    Excellent vid. Natasha, you are not alone in loving Cate. She is a marvellous actress and in my mind only rivalled by Meryl Streep. You both did quite well. Much of the slang was older type slang from my (boomer) generation and before. Younger generations have an amalgam from Aussie/US/British slang.
    One of my favorites from younger generations is a combo of new and old - to 'pash a random', meaning to have a casual kiss with someone you have just met when out for the night.

    I’ve never heard the term “back of Bourke” but the outback makes sense to me. Bourke is a town in NSW heading towards the outback. I don’t know much about it, just driven through it a couple of times heading to Broken Hill which is considered the capital of the outback.

  • @melissasheldrick9976

    Yes, you totally get a point for back of Bourke, which is an outback country town in the outback of NSW, basically meaning nothing past that point.

      'Neighbours' and the like tends to be a bit sanitised, one hears more slang on the Aussie dramas that 'Aunty Beeb' has been airing lately. I got to hear a lot when living in Earls Court, London in the '70's. It had the name of 'little land down under' or 'little Aussie land' as so many lived or stayed there (it was a fairly cheap place to live then).

    Awww... strewth! You must be as mad as a gum tree full of galahs! 🤣🤣
    Having watched a huge number of Aussie soaps during the 80's and 90's, I was able to pick up quite a few slang terms. Some of which don't seem to have stood the test of time, or have fallen out of favour with younger people, it would seem. I was also fortunate enough to have a friend whose aunt lived in Australia for most of her adult life, who would often give a few examples for us kids, way back when, that I've always remembered. Fair go mate. It's not worth a brass razoo. You must be out of your tree. Ya, flaming bludger! 😁

    On Cate's footy team. I'm not certain, but her uncle (her mum's brother), Jeff Gamble played for Essendon from 1953 to 1960. As likely as not, her team is the Essendon Bombers. He played 90 games and still managed 14 goals as a key defender.

    These a very classic representations and, as things do, the uses change over time. I grew up hearing "Fair Dinkum" used in response to negative occurances. Y'know, the car breaks down... oh fair dinkum... the bill arrives and it's massive.... ohhhh fair dinkum... almost like saying "oh crap".

    Aussie slang is sometimes difficult,as there are some large regional differences as well, I'm from the West Coast and many of the terms we use are different (or have different meanings) to the East Coast, there are also a lot that are universal, but it can sometimes cause some strange looks when you use something that someone else doesn't understand.
    Here is a challenge for you to translate; "You'll really get your grundies in a twist if someone puts a boondie through the wall of the dunny while trying to chase the grasshoppers and giant chickens out of the vegie patch, especially after you get the bill from the chippy for fixing the hole."

    Some extra context for those playing the home game:
    3:47 A "Bourke" is a rural town in New South Wales. It's very remote, but if something is out back of Bourke, it must be even further away....
    4:56 Like Fair Dinkum, Dinky-di is one we took from old Brit word Dinkum meaning genuine toil / hard labour work. Our versions generally refer to something being genuine or authentic.
    6:40 to Pike is to move quickly, we use it in the sense of fleeing, such as fleeing responsibility ...
    10:21 this one is probably a cheat - we stole it from Rhyming Slang "Porky Pies" are lies - but because we're allergic to anything with more than one syllable we dropped the rhyming part that actually helps it make sense.
    12:59 This is another case of rhyming slang Reg Grundy was an early Aussie TV studio, named after its owner. Your Reg Grundies were your undies.
    13:53 not actually sure, we just learnt it from the older generations. Lol.
    15:00 again just because we're allergic to syllables.
    16:07 from the old UK term Dunnekin, literally meaning Dung Closet, it's an outhouse, old outdoor toilet ... Also the look on your face when you realised you guessed you'd eat from dunny.
    17:34 this probably is one of the more common ones we are associated with and got used often. It can either be declaring something is genuine, or throw a question mark on it and you're now doubting the story you just heard.
    19:46 probably cheating again - if you didn't know the historic context with the world war and that it now only gets played on ANZAC day because of that context ... none of us would know either otherwise.
    20:12 Diminutive of Bathing Suit. Cossie would be from Swimming Costume.
    This was a great reaction, I liked Cate's video much better than the last guy you reacted to. Glad you had fun.

    Back of Bourke you get half point. As Bourke is located far out west in New South Wales and the back of Bourke could be located out in the outback which would be in the middle of nowhere. Also you can say "out in the middle of Woop Woop" which means the same thing. Woop Woop used to be a town in western Australia and was located far west of Perth.

    Cate uncle played for the team I go for Essendon. Here just found on Google. Who was Cate Blanchett's uncle that played for Essendon?
    He managed to play ten games in 1960 but he was then forced to retire due to the injury. Gamble was the uncle of actor Cate Blanchett through his sister, June and also provided the inspiration to Kevin Andrews, who composed the Essendon club song on the kitchen table of his parents, Horace and Rosalie Jean Gamble.
