Russell Crowe Teaches You Australian & New Zealand Slang | Vanity Fair - Розваги
His explanation of “chur”, proves how unkiwi he is.
lol
made me cringe
Thank god the aussies adored him 🤣🤣🤣. And devo, isn’t that like a pedo or racist? Or is that English slang.
Jason NZ he’s been in Oz too long. Best thing he did was leave NZ and maybe Gladiator....yeah nah 😂😂
@@NZReapR devo is short for devastated. I think you are thinking short for deviant (as in perv aka pervert) but, nah. That's pronounced deevo, as in "he's a bit of a deevo" I've only ever heard that one used in NZ, never heard it used in Oz. Plus Deevo is pretty uncommon (I haven't heard it for about 20years) but devo is very common in Australia, today (2020). Devo, not to be confused with defo, which is short for definitely.
When my parents first moved to NZ in the sixties they were invited to the new neighbours and were asked to bring a plate. They thought it a bit strange but they took a plate. Just the plate. Empty. No food. They learnt fast.
@LftHvyLftFst fair play to him🖖
That's happened to a few of our 'imports'😊. Always good for future dinner party and barbecue events. A story that just keeps giving😄
😅🤣😂
It makes more sense than the American "pot luck." Now that's a bizarre expression.
Haha it happened to me too..and didn't know
I’m pretty sure most of the people watching this video are Kiwi or Aussie and are just checking to see if he’s correct.
You're correct. New Zealand doesn't get noticed very often, and when it does it's usually alongside Aussie, so we like to make sure people are getting it right when they do see us.
Isaak van Daalen fully aye bro it’s funny seeing him explain our slang
@@isaakvandaalen3899 yeah nah bro, just doin sum sciencific research in lingo aye !!

Yup
I'm surprised he missed the most Kiwi of slang: 'Yea nah'.
Just like WA folk. You know, like Aussie Man Reviews.
Yeah nah, you sure?

I wish he said "Knackered means you are rooted" just to confuse foreigners even more
Like: "I feel like Kangaroo Ted's brother!" When you are knackered.
Oh. By the way his brother is Roo.
When New Zealanders and Australian's are talking together in their shared slang, while amongst other cultures, its referred to by some of those cultures as "They are speaking ANZAC".
Aww that's cute, I like that. And it's always good to remember the ANZACs
Actually, ANZAC would have been a good one for him to explain since it's only relevant to AU and NZ
probably because of the ANAZC's we share a lot of slang
I have never ever heard that before. Speaking ANZAC? What?
@@juzzybot3455 ANZAC = Australia New Zealand Army Corpe. Kiwi and Aussie troops deployed to Gillipoly (I know I spelt it wrong) during WW1
Everyone is grilling him because he butchered ‘chur’ ... well he isn’t exactly young or probably lived in NZ for awhile.

I like how Russell Crowe has kinda settled into a little ”rambling Old man” vibe
Get fit Russell we miss you at the flicks. Stop drinking loose weight. Love watching Gladiator and Robin Hood both of course directed by the great Ridley Scott. Take care of yourself.
He's definitely got the old man voice perfected
His deadpan explanation of the origins of the phrase "Budgie Smuggler" is surprisingly informative and riotously funny. 06:08
Agreed. It had me rolling with laughter.
Ex Aussie PM Tony Abbott is a fine proponent - google images will supply
@@iandalziel7405 It's a good example of what he described, but _nobody_ wants to have that image scarred into their brains.
@@Bicketybam68 Word!!
Won't look at budgies the same way again!
Funny Story on one of the terms:
When we moved to NZ - we were invited round and got asked to "Bring a Plate" - to which we thought (although a bit odd) that clearly the hosts were worried about having enough Dinnerware for all their guests and so we obligingly brought round a stack of Dinner plates....
Yeah.... Everyone had a good laugh at our expense on that one....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I know someone who not only brought plates but cutlery too. Russell wasn't clear that the plate you bring to a "do" should have food on it.
Sounds like a Canadian “Potluck”. Everyone brings food to share.
@@TheAmtwhite I did the same thing when I first moved to Canada - had never heard "bring a plate" before, and just thought the hosts didn't have enough dinnerware. Took an empty plate - never lived it down. Potluck I would
have understood! But, "bring a plate" - needs explanation!
MajesticDemonLord , you’re that thick and we let you in?.........jeeeeeeez.

A Crack a fat in his Budgie Smuggler lol

@@Shilo-fc3xm *Thongs, if you get my drift....
I'm an Aussie, and I've never been so aware how messed up our vernacular is. I once had a foreign-born coworker ask me to explain a colloquialism, only to have me describe it in another colloquialism.
😂😂😂
My mates and I once had a confusing conversation with some American girls in a pub over a certain word that we both used differently. It certainly didn't help that we were all very very drunk at the time. We said we were "pissed" and they kept saying "who are you pissed at and why?" That conversation went around and around in circles for far too long.
Same my Malaysian coworker asked me what cool bananas meant. And when I told her she was like but why? I was like I don't know 🤣

The booze bus isn't just a cop car, often they are using an actual bus to move testing equipment and staff and of course a place to hold drunk drivers. These buses are basically mobile road blocks with safety gear like traffic cones in their cargo bay allowing officers to carry out mass testing on problematic stretches of road or parts of the city.
@chris easly in NZ that's a party bus
He needs to lend his voice to more animated movies.
His voice is so soothing...I have to watch again to actually listen to what he said :)
I thought the same thing - very mellifluous!
I could listen to him explain something all day. Anything. He could be explaining how a toilet works and I'd be entranced.

I really dont know or care why Vanity Fair does the slang thing but i like to see my favorite actors be themselves .
I can just imagine him and Sam Neill discussing the best slang over a beer
I grew up in the middle of Massachusetts in the 60s and we used the word thongs for flip-flops, too.
We called flip flops thongs around 25 years ago in the pacific northwest as well.
Exactly they don’t have any more different words than Irish
In New Zealand we call them jandals. Apparently short for japanese sandal but I doubt the veracity of that origin story
@@houseis - I always thought it was Jewish Sandals (Jandals) because they are the cheapest form of sandal.
How unique
Was in a pub with kiwis (which I am) and Aussies having a light hearted debate if Russell was a New Zealander (his birth place)or Australian( where he has spent most of his life) neither side wanted to claim him.
He’s a relative of mine and we barely claim him.
It depends on whether he's winning Oscars, or throwing phones at hotel clerks.
Jean Prouvaire nah, kiwis think he’s to Aussie and most aussies I know think he is to kiwi.
@@hakaboy6924 What a shame. His brother Martin was a champion cricketer, you Kiwis sure are a fickle mob.

"Thong" was foot ware in America until probably the 80's.
I remember being surprised by the new definition.
That's because around the 80's in America a thong became undies/underwear, or butt floss as some women used to call them LOL!
I remember a rello when asked to "bring a plate" said she was happy to lend the hostess all her plates and anything else she needed for the dinner.
😂
"Bring a plate" is "Pot luck" in my part of USA.
Duffy Sullivan They say pot luck too in NZ.
same for me.
Bring a plate usually indicates fingerfoods. But if we say Pot Luck Dinner then that opens it up a bit more to hot food - in a pot, or finger food.
Bring a plate and pot luck are different here in NZ..
We use it in New Zealand too, they're interchangeable.
Munted (badly damaged)
Cumagutza (hubris, failing spectacularly).
Just a note on jandals. Contraction for Japanese sandals
"munted" is one of the greatest words in (or not in) the English language.
There is a little known WW2 book called "the life and times of a Kamikaze Pilot"

He missed out bludger, which has nothing to with wizard sports events. It's a freeloader, or sometimes a lazy person. It can also be used as a verb, as in, "Can I bludge a smoke", meaning, "Can I have a cigarette". Or it can be used in "Can I bludge a lift" meaning, "Could you take me somewhere in your car".
Bludging is mooching in America.
'Can I bludge a durry?'
Theres loads he missed out but he'd be there for over an hour lol😁😄😃if he said them all.
"Full as a boot/ he missed out on etc...
@@karenboromeo5752 my Dad used to say full as a goog or full as a bull's bum going up a hill.

I don't know that I've ever laughed so much, but, of course, I can't remember ONE of them now! This was before smart phones and you tube! When they were in full mode, I couldn't understand a word they were saying! Nothing made any sense! Funny stuff!
Over where?
your comment is useless
@@bigpapadrew But YOU READ IT!
@@questfortruth665 don't listen to that bloke - he's obviously pretty up himself
in its true sense - not "confident', but cheers Russell - nice one there
I'm a New Zealander. I always thought of "Chur" as "Cheers" so to me it means "Thanks". You hand a mate a drink and he goes "Chur Bro"
Can be used in the way he mentions but more often in the way youve explained.
You're right it's used all the time as thanks, and also as a greeting to say hi or bye to someone.
Same mate.just a lazy way of sayin cheers!!
@@maieldmik5233 You are all wrong Read my comments !
@@chaquisa1 ok.but I don't see any of your comments
Bring a plate - the bit most foreigners don't understand is that it means to bring a plate of food to share, not just the plate itself. Think US-Style Pot Luck.
It's a social invitation, where the host(s) are mainly providing the venue rather than all the food/drink/etc.
An invitation might be "We're having a BBQ this weekend, you and the kids are invited. We'll have some steaks. Sausages and soft drink for kids. Bring a plate and whatever you like to drink. "
This means you are invited, and expected that if you come you will bring:
- A plate/platter/bowl of food to share (such as a salad, appetisers, etc) - enough at least to feed the group you're bringing, but it's generally expected that you will also share (and in return have some of whatever else was brought)
- If you have any particular dietary requirements then you should bring that too. Given its a barbecue ideally something that can be grilled (barbecued) although not required.
- your own drinks for yourself and whomever else you are bringing.
In the upper Mid-West it is a hotdish vs a potluck. Though a hotdish is also a specific casserole that has a starch (traditional tater tots), a meat and can or frozen veg.
yes bring a plate is typically called pot luck or a pitch in dinner. everyone brings a dish of whatever they want and you all get this variety of things. typically there are many duplicates of teh same item. Corn, beans and potatoes are typical repeat items
I'm not even Kiwi and I know chur means cheers
"Chur bro"
Alot more than cheers
@@King-qk7rb Definitely! Depends on the situation.
Chur means hello,thank you, goodbye it all depends on the context hahahah
@@caitlin2009 wrong
@@caitlin2009 Exactly!
I’m an American that’s lived in Australia for 13 years. And it shocks me how many phrases I was struggling to find the American equivalent to. Great job Russell!
You are welcome honey. Thanks for being my fan. Hope you are doing great today.
Tinnie, tinny - a can of beer or a small aluminium boat. "Tossed down a few tinnies while we were out in the tinnie"
“Tinny” in NZ is $20 worth of weed wrapped in tin foil or if you prefer Aluminium foil..

Can I have some tinnys mate? Preferably skunky tins.
99.9% of what Russell said is shared across both countries.
He did butcher 'Chur' though...
Aww I love Russell’s giggle 😂 loved the video, it was very informative
Chur does NOT mean "sure"! It's a derivation or adaptation of "cheers" to mean Hi, Good-bye, That's Great. .. "Chur Bro".
Chur that Bro!
Yeah that ones a bit new for our old mate Russel
Please never say churr that bro

‘Disclaim’, presumably.
Aussies are buggers for trying to claim any successful / famous New Zealanders. Crowe was claimed as an Aussie when he was doing well in the Hollywood milieu.
A funny one I read was an Australian Surgeon in the USA, asking if she could "nurse" the baby of the family she was staying with. Now to ANZACs, that means "hold them and possibly cuddle them" but to Americans it usually means "breast feeding".
I needed this today, Thank you!
I love how some of these cross over with British slang too!
Of course, since we are part of the commonwealth too 💁🏻♀️ most Aussie slang and sayings are the same as in the UK
Well not surprising given we were settled by English settlers firstly .

@@shaggjones4854 1/3 of them were sure.
@@shaggjones4854 NZ wasn't a penal colony.
Love it! I thought it was very well done. My favourite is a word that has no medical equivalent in any language other than in Australia. The word is 'crook'. I heard a specialist in rheumatology talking about this word and how difficult it was to explain it to overseas medicos. But he loved it. Not really ill but not well either. 'A bit crook.' Feeling a bit off colour. 'Real crook' is starting to get serious but still not seriously ill. 'Crook as Rookwood' is more than serious as Rookwood is a cemetery in Sydney so crook as Rookwood is the same as being dead. 'It's crook' can apply to any deal business situation meaning it's not going well and may be headed for bankruptcy or may mean the principals have lost their way their values or ethics as in 'The business was going well but it's crooknow' meaning that it's got big problems. The use of crook has nothing to do with criminals. He is a crook is a global usage of the word to denote a thief hence the confusion with the Aussie concept of crook. Nothing to do with being a crook but that said a crook might be a bit crook if he is unwell.
@votejj Every day word when i was growing up in NZ in the 50s,60 and so on haha
Perfect explanation.
Ahhh good old Rookwood cemetery
Excellent and entertaining explanation! You don’t think much about our little phrases until you have to explain them. I hadn’t heard of Crook as Rookwood. It’s pretty full already.
The way KJ Apa explained Chur was like "Good." He also said that it can be used in many different ways. His example was someone putting a yummy plate of food in front of him and saying Chur at the sight of it.
Chur bro

Adorable little video, very informative.....Loved watching Russell get giggly over some of the phrases. My favorite has to be "Budgie Smuggler" because I've had lots of parakeets as pets and yes, a man's private inside a pair of Speedoes definitely matches the outline of a parakeet (Budgerigar in Aborigine Language, Budgie to Australians and those of us who love them !!)

The Nicole Kidman story! Onya, Russ! Onya, Nic!
I always took "chur" to be a variant of "cheers", with a similar range for most meanings: "goodbye", "yes", "thanks", "roger". It's also very commonly used for "hello" as an acknowledgment only; i.e. the first person tilts the head back slightly or whatever, and the second person says "chur".
Yep! Mostly 'thanks'. :)
Yh but it's also a superlative
@juntao11 We Kiwi's tend to shorten our vowels as part of your accent. so "fish and chips" become "f-sh n ch-ps" so "fu-sh n ch-ups" fush n chups and the same thing happened to cheers only It was pushed hard my Maori-New Zealand dialects.
@@Dohyden2 Yes! Very accurate! We have one of the 'laziest' accents, not contorting our mouths much. You can nail a pretty good kiwi accent, just by omitting all the vowels! :'D

It's probably been mentioned already, but a Furphy means a lie/ tall tale/ ludicrous story. it doesn't mean mistake at 07:35
I've always heard it used as "mistake".
@@RealFarknMcCoy never heard it in that meaning.....JM is close, but it means an unsubstantiated rumour. Modern US equivilent would be 'water cooler gossip'.....funnily enough, has the exact sampe meaning. J.

Dear Mr Crowe, First, thank you for giving the world some of the best performances that modern cinema has produced. My favorite, or one of my favorites, of you, is in Master and Commander at the Far Side of the World. You have docked in Brazil, I believe, and you are tempted to stay over, but know you have to sail on. You see the island girl looking up at you, and look at her again, and then again. Every man in the world was in that place at some time in his life and regretted not staying one more night or whatever. What I would like to say is that I think a good career move for you would be to go back to the streets of LA, in an upgrade of your role in Usual Suspects. You need to get back to the lean and mean young Russel and do a thriller of all thrillers. Show us the space in your actor's mind you've been hiding away until now. Thanks for the slang. Be well -
Yes, I could listen to that voice all day....and night ❤️❤️❤️
