Saffer or Aussie?
-
There is a Lady down the School and it's been bugging me for ages because I can't work out if she is South African or Aussie from her accent. For example, this morning she was "farting with her Hoover" when in fact she was struggling with her Vacuum Cleaner? Is that Aussie or Saffer?

As far as I know we (South Africans) haven't called anything a Hoover in 20 years.
My plan is to live forever ... so far so good

Eish! Did you just say what I think you said? If so you just made enemies of the entire Australia! :omg:
Half my [extended] family are the offspring of deported tatty takers. :laugh: My maternal grandfather was one of 8 and 5 of them went out to Oz, two in the early 20's and the other three in the late 40's. Between them they've bred like people who have nothing better to do of an evening and we can now pretty well visit any inhabited area of Oz and find a relative to stay with. There's bloody hundreds of 'em and the worst part is they keep coming here to visit.

My limited understanding is that the people of the antipodes used the 'C' word as a term of endearment between friends. You could try calling her the 'C' word. If you don't come away with two black eyes and some broken bones you will know that she is from Australia.

FTFY :-D <edit> GuyThiebaut is offended by reference to, albeit vulgar, the human anatomy. Let it be known that he didn't say what the "C"unt vigana word meant. I did! :-D </edit>

Interesting... we refer to a dog in the house as a portable Hoover... especially at meal times!

Flawed logic here. If you cannot determine one or the other what makes you believe it's either. There are many other possibilities.

I know it seems funny, but given the word is so offensive to so many people, could you please remove that false quote attributed to me - thanks :-D
