BamBam .. there are like in all English speaking countries, words that mean VERY different things to other places, despite us all allegedly speaking the same mother tongue. There are many entire books on "Australian English". Try:

Innocent expressions you might make like commenting some woman has a large fanny or saying you are rooting for someone have VERY different meanings locally!

Hope you enjoy the visit!
