Spelled: **Pronounced/Definition in Australian:
Breakfast **Brekkie
Thanks **Good on you girl/mate

The Waifs **The Wives (aussie band)
tea **cuppa
sandwich **sanny
snack **nibbly
box of wine **cask
t shirt **singlet

Athletic Shoes **joggers
Okay it's not really all about how they pronounce it, but some of these terms are just plain hilarious.
I'm just thinking of making a sentence in Australian...
Eh, scull your cask and eat your nibblies because I need to get out of these joggers and singlet and put on my bathers for a swim. Okay that wasn't the best sentence but still good stuff.
