这个帖子挺不错的，我也有问题要问。
我上班时候听到鬼妹同事在把事情办砸了的时候，说“bai ga”，不会是小日本儿的“八嘎“吧？还有人在掉了东西的时候说”sugar“，是不是我听错了？

That would be bugga! It originated from Japanese 八嘎, I think...
But it means shit or do'h or woops, but it's not polite.

That should be "bugger". A not-so-polite word popular among blue collars. There was once that a NZ MP used this word in the parliament, the parliament speaker was an English literacy teacher before so he basically barred that MP from parliament for the day for saying it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugger

That "sugar" thing probably is "shoot". Feminine way of saying "sh*t".

That said, don't take these words seriously among blokes. When there is no chick around, blokes naturally tend to talk rude, which is actually a way of breaking the ice and form mateship. All my colleagues are at least bachelor educated, some are PHDs (all local white male), all of us use lots of F words when off work, especially when having a drink together. But we are as polite as diplomats to each other during office hours. So the occasion matters a lot...

viviancn

感叹词，＝terrific/fantastic

beautiful,cool什么的这不是什么澳洲特有的了，全世界都这么用的。
澳洲很多人尤其是女性一般喜欢给词进行结尾加-ie的改造，例如Barbie，Aussie，Uni什么的，这是澳洲特有的，澳洲人自己说的。

我是把常听到的都写上来了，不仅仅限于slang了

还有，什么叫做“can do attitude".在广告上经常看到这句，想不出确切的含义是什么？

Sarah可可

这个可以这样解释一下：具有主观能动性，即对于各种任务有“我能做”的态度。

....
loo = toilet. as in "I need to go to the loo." 非常不文明的说法。正式场合忌用。
....

鬼佬造房，一块地平出来以后，第一件事就是放一个“portable loo”，然后，再等很久（有一次看见就一个loo放在那里居然有半年）开始动工。

banana = dickhead

Richard's nick name is Dick.

Buggar or Bugger
1.This word is most often used in negative terms to represent indiffernce, pity, annoyance/anger, sympathy, defeat or can be simply used as an exclamation of suprise or insult.
2.It is used interchangably with such words or sayings as, Shit, oh shit, holy crap, damnit, oh my god, you bastard, oh well, poor diddems etc.

Example (what it could mean)
Someone1: "BUGGAR (holy crap/Oh my god), MY HOUSE IS BURNING DOWN!!!"
Someone2: 'That's a buggar..' (oh dear/that sucks/better you then me)
Someone1: "NOW YOUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE!"
Someone2: 'I know, that was the plan. Insurance and all.'
Someone1: "WHY YOU LITTLE BUGGAR! (you bastard/ how dare you)"
Someone2: "Dun' worry your dogs in the truck"
Someone1: sighs "oh buggar it (I give up) I'm going to the pub"

       

Australian for "oh shit".

buggar, i just spilt my imported beer all over your pants.

最近听到很多不明白的哦：

Don't rub my nose. 是不是不要suck up或者sweet talking 的意思啊？
