As an Aussie I feel confident saying the reason we only had 2 mediocre slang words is because all the good ones would get the video De-monetized. LOL
Didn't even do goon bag
@@Nightshade17655 Ok I had to look that up but now I wonder is the goon part there related to the British English meaning ie thug/yob? So in that sense coming about as a derogatory slang for someone that buys their wine in bags that later got applied to the product itself? Just feels like I should be able to come up with similar examples that contain the word chav but can't off the top of my head, possibly as that slur went out of fashion even before I left the UK some years ago. But it kinda reads like that to me ie something that is associated with drunken yobs that hang out and generally make an ass of themselves.
@@seraphina985 Goon bag is just a cheap bag of wine. Also I was poking at the fact that videos like this never go into more realistic words said by cultures. Like here's a fun fact, Barely any Australians say Mickey D's.
@@Nightshade17655 To be fair as a native Brit a lot of the things they say about the UK make me go, "Eh? Ya wot mate?". Granted I no longer live in the UK but they seem to have a flawed understanding of how people actually speak there in daily life.
@@seraphina985 they don't understand your language or ours
Please do more videos with Christina, Lauren, and Grace! Perhaps add more from other English-speaking countries such as Canada, India, Nigeria, New Zealand, and Singapore!
Malaysia and the Philippines too! Since these two countries are the 3rd and 2nd in terms of English speaking proficiency in Asia after Singapore! And Malaysia got a lot of English slang that is completely different from the actual meaning 😂
they cant invite every single country, india would be a good round up as an asian representative
@@aly6433 who the fuck told you that india has the highest English speaking people in asia and 2nd in the world over 600 million of people speak English here.
Ireland tooo
im singaporean and would love to see singlish in a video haha
Break a Leg is from Shakespeare's time. It actually means to take a bow because of a great performance. To brake a leg meant to bend the knee as you bow.
OHHH I thought it was because when you break a leg you get a cast and in an audition you want to get in a cast
i thought it was because sayinh good luck brimgs bad luck so you tell them something bsd so it will be good
@@diyaraodrona4281 People use break a leg now to say good luck because if you say good luck people might be more nervous or something bad so you say break a leg
In Germany we say "Hals- und Beinbruch!" Literally translates to "break your neck and leg"
It's mostly used when getting on stage too.
In performance circles, theater, film, etc., telling someone good luck became a taboo. Wishing someone good luck before a performance became synonymous with wishing someone the exact opposite, therefore if you are competitive with someone and wish them to perform badly, you wish them good luck as a form of jinx or hex. As a result, wishing someone ill, as in break a leg, actually became a wish for them to do well.
Love our little series so much! Thank you everyone for your support 🥰❤️
Hey, really enjoyed it. Btw you kinda look like Cameroon Diaz😎. Did people make u aware of that?

Im so sorry for you... as an American, I struggle with the English language myself, I couldn't imagine learning 2 different dialects of English.
must be tough for you , I can relate as well
And accent. Different textbook use different phonetic symbols to illustrate same words, like Dance [dæns](American) / [dɑ: ns ] (British).
@@lixjoonhoneymt7149 in my school we use American book but use British teacher 😭
Yeah im malaysian. In malaysia they want us to learn 3 in a row. I thought it was hard but im okay with it.. its not that hard for me now😊
Break a leg. In German you can say "Hals- und Beinbruch" (break your neck and leg) to wish somebody luck.
Oh lord hahahahahaha, definitely gonna use it
In French, the equivalent to wish " good luck " it to say " Merde ! " which means " Shit ! ", and it also originally comes from weird traditions of theatre actors.
@@pasqualepasqua7250 in Italy we also say that ("merda"). I was told, behind the theatre's stage one time that, it was because, when there were carriages, a lot of shit (horses') meant there were lots of carriages, and so more people coming to see you perform
Daran hatte ich auch sofort gedacht
In spanish is "rómpete una pierna" to wish lucky in a event o something like this 😂
Just to clarify for all our UK friends: when Christina and I were experimenting with “Nosh” phrases, this was before Lauren explained the OTHER meanings of the word 😬😳🙈🤣😅
Loved filming with ma boos! - Grace 🇦🇺
The "break a leg" is also kind of used in german as : "Hals und Beinbruch". Yes we are way more extreme. We break our necks for performance.
going the extra mile i see
Leave it to the Germans. . .😆
Well, in french we just say "Crap to you" as a good luck. ^^
Yes! And it's used in the UK too.
Same with Czech "zlom vaz" haha
In Australia and Britain, it would "bad arse", of course.
As a Brit, I didn’t know any of the British slang lmao
They're quite old-fashioned slang. I'd heard of them, but wouldn't use them in everyday conversation
Same.
Gordon Bennet!
Ikr
I say mingin all the time 😂😂
Christina looks like an anime princess from the Middle Ages
w0t
How? I mean shes very pretty but i dont really get those vibes 😂
I was told to say, “break a leg” so I wouldn’t jinx their performance
Yeah, I thought that was common knowledge.
Hmm...I was told that it was for those who are in the acting industry. They would want to "break a leg" so that they could be in a "cast"....get it?
@@kylie734 That doesn’t make any sense. If someone is about to go out and perform, they would have already been cast in a role. By your logic, the saying would only be used when someone is auditioning which is not the case.
Saying Good Luck is a jinx. So they say Break A Leg.
@@B_27 Yeah..that was what I meant lol. Thank you for properly wording it
I giggled a bit at some of the slang that the Aussie didn't know. Definitely a function of age! Dishy and break a leg used to be part of Aussie slang, but they were a bit old-fashioned when I was at school back in the 80s, so I doubt that many ppl under 35-40 would know them. Glad she included devo for devastated though - one of the many words we shorten and end with an 'o'!
As an Australian in my 20s, I'm surprised she didn't know so many - I think most other young Aussies would know more
I'm Australian, I honestly don't know how she doesn't know many of these slangs. We use practically all the American one's so often but I've never heard the British ones.
A lot of the British ones are very old fashioned. Noone says Gordon Bennett or Codswallop these days.
@@dougfile6644 oh codswallop lol
They say “break a leg” because they hope you end up in the cast. Like for a show or movie or whatever.
That's funny
Seriously? I never knew that. It makes so much sense now.
I remember hearing this ages ago and i wanted to comment it but i couldn’t for the life of me remember it. Glad you commented so i didn’t drive myself crazy trying to remember
The slang terms discussion was great fun! They should have explained to the Australian girl that Dope had a wider meaning of describing illegal drugs, and like Sick, it only recently had a positive meaning spin. Bae came from a shortening of baby, and also BAE (Before Anyone Else). Badass was another term that went from bad to good. The person was literally a Bad..Ass, meaning intimidating and mean. But then it turned into describing someone who was determined, and not to be messed with, in a strong and positive way. Break a leg came from theater where people were superstitious and thought that wishing someone success would jinx them, so they said the opposite. Gordon Bennett was a controversial writer in the 1800s who pushed social convention and got rich, and his son James Gordon Bennett Jr. was wild and extravagant, spending his fortune with an outrageous lifestyle. The "Life of Riley" is a similar slang term. I remember Codswollop from Harry Potter. A Dish was the term for a pretty girl from the 1920s forward, like a special treat or dessert dish. I had always heard nosh, like to chow down on tasty food. Years ago we had Devo, meaning de-evolution, like the punk band. This would also be a fun show to do with people from non-English speaking countries, where they no doubt have slang terms that we couldn't easily guess their meaning.
I'm an Aussie - but like you, I'm old enough to remember when dope meant illegal drugs and Devo was an American band who wore weird hats 😅
All the American words would be easily understood for everyone I know in Aus, no further explanation needed. I find in videos like this when English speakers have lived in Asian countries for a while and associated with lots of people from different English speaking countries they get confused about their own country’s slang.
The word “Doping” is also used by the Australian media when a sporting person gets caught out for using illicit drugs - it’s always termed a “doping scandal” - but anyone under like 40 would generally know that dope means great/cool/awesome as well.
@@ictybtwbc dope is also still pretty universally understood in young people to mean cannabis
@@ictybtwbc They’d be understood by just about every youth in Britain too and even used by some people here. ‘Dope’ in the sense ‘drug oneself or one’s horse to obtain an unfair advantage in a competition’ is just standard English, it’s said and heard everywhere.
Thanks for all this information! ❤
Wanna see more of these three, especially Christina from USA!
Agreed, these 3 women are really fun together!
umm no i prefer ryz emily
I've just fallen in love with the Aussie girl.
Because of the tan skin?
@@kingslayer120 I just think she's the most beautiful girl in the room.
@@julioarturobecerril3479 she’s clapped 🤣
She wouldn’t get boring for sure
"Break a leg" in American vernacular came from stage plays and theatre. It's always been considered bad luck to wish someone good luck or anything positive before a stage performance. Therefore, the opposite is said, as in "I hope you break you leg.", and that's understood to mean the opposite, as in "Do well."
James Gordon Bennett was an American publisher and journalist. He started the New York Herald and helped shape American news journalism as we know it today.
so its basically reverse psychology to trick the karma into working for you. like a backwards jinx
Strange, i thought it's British by origin?
@@musenw8834 it is
@@musenw8834 yes, it originated from the British word for the sides of a stage, and the "legs"(sides of the stage) quite often used to break when the clapping was really loud, so performers used to say break a leg because it means the crowd really enjoyed the performance!
"Americans" are all people who live in the American continent, not just in the United States!!
I have never heard anyone use "crack on" as to flirt with someone haha! That is a new one to me! Crack on is to get on with something, continue to work on a task or you bump into someone in the street and you have been small talking with them for too long and use it as an excuse to leave. "I best crack on."
that's what i use too, i've never heard it as anything other than cracking on with a job.

@@shortestasian2642 "oi, mistah prime ministah!"
I don’t think I’ve heard it either. Also I’ve never heard the dee-vo pronunciation before, only devo as in devastated
In Australia I use the word crack off when I’m describing someone farting 😂🤣😅
In France, badass is also used, for fictional characters, like in movies, anime etc.
"this character is badass" means that he's powerful, with a lot of charisma
Oh yeah we do that too
Most modern American slang originates from the African-American community. It just catches on like wildfire I guess because a lot of people listen to rap, so they just incorporate rap slang into what they say everyday, then Hollywood repeats it and there ya have it.
Wrong all 50 states have different slangs and only some originate from the ‘ hood ‘ which has Africans coming straight from Africa and African Americans who was raised here and other ethnic groups there which is why you would see blacks Hispanics whites Asians and even other races talking “ghetto”. Every state and city has kind of like their own and sometime it’s mixed from other states and cities cause people move there or cause of adopting from what you see on social media. My opinion , cause for example , that’s ‘dank’ wasn’t create from African-Americans. It was the white -Caucasian folks and there’s more. Hispanic created some and Asians created some and other races created some too
Initially I think people would say “break a leg” because they wanted the person to be cast.
Never thought of that possibility. Always thought it was because it was bad luck to wish someone good luck right before an audition. Maybe someone broke a leg once. So wishing them the opposite is actually wishing them well. It is a very old expression, so not really sure of the original roots.
I'm sure this has been said in the comments previously, but "nosh" is Yiddish. Just like many other Yiddish words it has made it's way into common slang use. It's found it's way into many languages as well. It means food like snacks, anything not a main meal. It's usually something served at a social gathering.
Dishy kinda makes sense. In older American English (I think 1930s-50s) there was a phrase like "Oh, ain't she a dish?" Or "She's quite a dish!" Usually men used it to describe a hot woman. I feel like I've heard it a lot in black and white movies
Nosh is a Yiddish origin word that came into English and is used in America too. I don't know if I would call it British slang. Maybe I'm just being a schmuck though. :P
Yes, we have it here in the U.S., although I wouldn't call it common slang. Or, maybe I am being a schlemiel about it, as well.
People say “break a leg” because if you do, you’ll get put in the “cast”
Haha 😂 the puns were on point
Codswallup is used in Australia. I find that often the younger generation under 40 have become Americanised whereas those of us over 40 have many more words we use that are more British.
I definitely agree. Majority of British slang used in Australia is used by older generations, whereas younger generations tend to use Australian developed slang or American slang
I could be wrong but Gordon Bennet is the less blasphemous form of goddamit. It’s like what the heck, Oh my gosh, geez, for pete’s sake and gosh darn it
I notice some of British slangs are based on people's name😅. Is there a specific reason???
Interesting! What about Merlin's beard? I heard them in the Harry Potter films. Is it real or a made up word just for the movie?
Rhyming slang
@@neilkamalseal3413 cockney rhyming slang. It like if you didnt want to say "god damnit" you'd change it to "Gorden Bennet". Honestly as a brit all of those slang words were old fashioned and aren't used anymore though. Like even as a child I thought "Gorden Bennet" was "God and Ban it"
@@FireShadow210 Haha oh i got it now. We as kids used to do this too like to say a slang but can't say in front of parents cause they are that strict. Me and my cousins and siblings would make it a name sounding so polite and unsuspectable😂😂😂 Thats clever
This series is AMAZING, you LADIES are doing fantastic, LOVE LAUREN FROM THE UK 🇬🇧
The history of break a leg starts in the theater where it was bad luck to wish good luck to actors before they went on stage
The saying "Break a leg" came from the idea that if an actor is about to go on stage and you tell them good luck, that might jinx them so instead you say something purposefully malicious sounding to not jinx them. It's kind of like an inside joke that just became a common saying now that I think about it.
Break a leg come from “do it extremely until your leg is broken” and then make it short break a leg.
According to my research:
The idiom has its origins in theatre - which is a highly superstitious profession - where they shy away from saying positive things before a performance.
Those in the theatre industry believed (and probably still do), that well wishes or kind words before a show or performance was bad luck.
Thus, instead of uttering words of kindness, it became common to wish an actor, actress, dancer, musician or performer, bad luck.
“Breaking a leg,” would be a horrible thing for a performer, so it became the preferred way to say, “good luck”.
(I made a video about, it too! ua-cam.com/video/D0KV-ADAKMg/v-deo.html)
@@superduperenglishidioms in Italian we say 'in bocca al lupo' which means ' in the wolf's mouth' and the other person says 'crepi' which is 'may it die'

Well, no. That means you share a common denominator, which is the fact that you’re unique, but it doesn’t mean the uniqueness is the same.

the three girls are so nice
hi im from spain
I’ve been binging these videos, and there are some really awesome talents/cast members. All have been super entertaining
love Christina, she's so sweet
Codswallop is kinda like how some people in the US tend to say “hogwash,” I guess. I don't know if everyone says it, but it's fairly common here in the South
I’m actually from the south and have never heard that Term.
I once had a lady come into the place I worked at and talked about Shrink Plastic wrap and the fact I make pins, she told me she calls it “Shrinky Dinks” which I believe is a kids craft brand of shrink plastic wrap.
@@Gamerblam That’s interesting. Never have heard of “shrinky dinks.” Though from googling it, they mostly reached height in the 80s so that’s probably why I can’t recall them. Not my era.
I’m from the hollers, so you get a lot of ridiculousness like “hogwash” tossed around. Probably because we’re hicks and all that. Hogs usually go with hicks, I suppose.
“Break a leg” is a phrase that is typically used before a performance as a way to wish someone good luck. In theater, the actors are typically superstitious so in order to not jinx themselves or someone else they say “break a leg” instead of something positive.
nailed it
never heard the uk ones and i live in the uk 😭 i only have heard of one which is nosh but never knew what it meant. i’ve heard a few american ones tho
Me too lmao I never heard of any of the uk ones. But that might be because where we're from in the uk?

Love videos like this! I will say that a lot of US slang that’s gone viral on the media and internet come from Black and (African American Vernacular English/Ebonics) and queer communities. Examples of these are dope, bet, drip, queen, lit, fam, boo, bae, shook, slay, and more.
That Gordon Bennett one got me so curious I actually had to look it up. Apparently it is based off someone from late 1800s to early 1900s.
"Gordon Bennett!" is an expression of incredulity which alludes to the outrageous behaviour of the American sportsman, publisher and all-round hell-raiser James Gordon Bennett Jr.
Why do I feel like I'm in love with an Australian girl even tho I'm straight? 😂 She's so pretty!
I love these series. In my country (Poland) we use some of these slang words/phrases too! Like "break your leg" = połamania nóg ;)
These videos are the best 😊
Gordon Bennett was a flamboyant personality in the late 19th-, early 20th-centuries. He excelled at polo, tennis, and yachting.
Perhaps it’s a generational thing; I’m Aussie and I knew all those British slang terms. Gordon Bennet I learned from Red Dwarf but all the others are terms that were used here when I was younger (I’m in my 40s)
I'm 19 and I knew them. But I would say I have a better idea of slang over other people my age. I do alot of community work and volunteering, so you pick up a few phrases here and there
Im in south eastern England and we use ‘break a leg’ because when I left for school on the day of my 11+ test, my mom shouted break a leg
I also use ‘crack on’ but it means hurry up
2:38 you're right, I heard "Boo" in that song called Dilemma by Nelly and Kelly Rowland: 🎵🎵even when i'm with my boo, you know i'm crazy over you🎵🎵
Dish or Dishy has been used to describe girls too..probably longer than Lauren imagines..the word was used in the film 'Titanic' 1997..in the first 15 minutes..by Rose Dawson Calvert character..the old lady survivor..describing her teenage self in 1912.."Wasn't i a Dish?" she says..
In ballet we would say “Break an eyelash”
Looked up “Gordon Bennett”. Seems he was a wealthy, accomplished man who had a controversial reputation. He also headed an ill fated sailing expedition to the North Pole. Sad story. It really never said the exact etymology of the phrase as used today.
so i've just learnt that when you're hiding and trying to scare someone you would say "boo" in English, in Vietnamese we would say "hoo" with a falling tone, quite similar, i just wonder how people from other countries say it
Badass finally understood this word. It uses everywhere but can’t found it meaning accurately thank you a lot!
"Break a leg" - we have sth. similar in German to wish luck: "Hals- und Beinbruch" meaning "neck and leg break". But it came from Yiddish and was just the wrong German sound comprehension of "hatslokhe un brokhe" ("Luck and blessing").
The meaning though is right: I wish you luck.
such a lit collab, gurls got swag, dat's such a glow up, hope I don't get cancelled.
"Break a leg" is such a fun idiom that many English learners love it!
There is a superstition in dance that if you tell somebody good luck before a performance then something will go wrong but if you say break a leg the performance will go well
The origin of "break a leg" comes from live theater: if you break a leg, you'll be put in a , which for an actor would be good luck.
Hals- und Beinbruch...
I'm from America and we used nosh in my high school, but we always meant it as "to eat". So you could say we were noshing on some nosh. :)
I dont even know who's more beautiful now!!!! All of them look like a gathering of Angels!!!
Christina, Lauren, and Grace are the most iconic trio!🤪🤩🤣😅😃
Yup they are the GLC sisters
Never knew Break a Leg was just an American thing.
I’m American and of course I know it’s used here but I had no idea it was just an American thing either
It's not. It's used widely in the UK too. I'm pretty sure it originated from theatre superstition
Yeah nah it’s used heaps here in Australia too
"Americans" are all people who live in the American continent, not just in the United States!!
Dishy is really old and nice sounding slang, I remember it from some Sinatra tune😎
That american girl looks like young Jodie Foster.
In Germany we say "naschen". It means eating a little bit of food.
Christina seems more comfortable around them than that other obnoxious British woman. You know who I’m talking about
Wow comparing women over something as silly as an English slang video. Snowflakes these days
Some ones for the next one from Bogan Australia that are really common could be:
Derro = Derelict
Durry, Lung Dart, Cancer stick = Cigarette
Getting on = picking up dr*gs XD
Sick C*nt or Mad C*nt = awesome person
Muzza or Mulla = a coffee or herb grinder
Bludger = someone typically on the dole not looking for work
Bottle'o = Liquor store
Mad = Good
Sus = suspicious
Red hot = risky
Cashy = cash in hand job
Sesh = a session usually smoking or drinking
Billy = oil pourer XD
Pub = A bar
This is just an observation but I couldn't help but cringe when seeing the word "bogan" because here in canada its used as a slur for the indigenous people... Comparable to the N word.
Obviously the word has different uses elsewhere! And (hopefully) doesn't have the racial ties
All three of you are DOPE!! And I'm not even a SIMP...
-ass is just an intensifier, but sometimes changes the meaning.
"Did you see that big-ass dog?!" (= huge, enormous)
"That was one stupid-ass movie" (= incredibly dumb)
You can use bad-ass as a noun: "She is a TOTAL badass" (that is definitely a compliment; you're saying she's incredibly cool and brave)
The reason for break a leg is because its bad luck to say “good luck” to someone about to go onstage because then they wont do well, so if you say break a leg, you’re hoping they’ll do well. Theatre people are the most superstitious people you will ever meet
We have quite a similar thing, in France we can say "merde" or "bonne merde" which means "shit" or "good shit", instead of "good luck".
Not many foreigners know this, but the c-word is used often the same as calling someone your mate in Australia but it really depends on the context. Your friends are c**t's and people you don't like are also c**t's. Really depends on the who and what in the situation.
I dont think "break a leg" is slang. It is an old idiom. Really old. It's just irony.
Was about to say that. Yes, it's a really old idiom.
well it's so you don't jinx them by actually wishing them "good luck." saying the opposite is like knocking on wood.
true american slang is aave and break a leg is not that.
@@123terricam there's plenty of regional slang across the states, not just aave.

@@LucyLive91 yes beau is the word i know. It is known in Australia but is a very old-fashioned word that no-one uses very often.

Bob Saget! Wow. I didn’t know anyone else said this. Been saying it for years. I’m from New York btw.

And then compare with close languages like (Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Low German) with their respective variations. And more regional languages/Dialects spoken in those countries like (Frisian, Scots, Occitan, Sicilian, Catalan, Galician, Bavarian, Luxembourgish).

Break a leg is from the performing arts, because saying "good luck" was considered bad luck. The only British sang I didn't know was Gordon Bennett, but the others we use in Australia too. Nosh is like tucker. UK and Australia both make use of rhyming slang too, so that makes it fun and interesting, we call underwear undies which gets rhymed to Reg Grundies. Reg Grundy was big in Australian TV. Another is a slang term for Americans, I know the UK use the term Yanks, but then we rhyme that to septic tanks and then we shorten it again to seppos. And we call Brits Poms, there's a few versions of the origins of that word but two theories are pomegranate which was an observation of sunburnt Brits, or POHM being Prison of Her Majesty from the convict days.
