Australian English

Though a large portion of the world speaks English, it's amazing just how different each (English Speaking) country's language really is.

Hahaha I live in Australia and everytime I hear the word pacifier I think they mean a vibrator or a dildo!

[Otaku4ever801]

I went to Australia before and I thought I was pronouncing 'scone' incorrectly, but I actually pronounced it :'D

Even though I'm not an Aussie, Australia had always felt like it was my hometown. :D

@MrInstiputo Well that all depends on whether he's saying that you call biscuits scones or if you call scones biscuits. I didn't even think of it the other way around... I mean, I've never heard any Australians call anything but scones scones.. Those fluffy doughy things you eat with cream and jam. And yes... that's what I was saying... to call a biscuit a scone is stupid... because biscuits are nothing like scones

[Bezzzzo]

@AmazoneCowgirl Learn English you mean? or Just Aussie slang?

[MrInstiputo]

@TheCharnstar You are an idiot. I call a scone, a scone. I believe this delectable treat comes from England, so for you to call a biscuit a scone, makes you the freak.
