what local words/slang have you already been - emorata - 10-02-2007

incorporating into your daily discussions.....for most of us newbies trying to use some local slang - i want to know what others have picked up effectively in their short timeframes there.

For me, i like saying da kine " you no da kine", also i like also saying "you no" alot...my new favorite is greeting is Howzit with a nice smile.....

I think my vocabulary has taken on sort of a local tang to it....sort of gets mixed with my okie lingo....it works though Smile
