In Australia, sausages are called either “snags” or “bangers”, most commonly.
Snag. Definition: sausage, also used to refer to sliced bread and sausage combo, Australian hot dog. Example: “Grab a few snags for the party tonight!” Snag isn't just a part of Australian vocabulary; it's part of Australian culture.
It is assumed that 'banger' relates to the noise made by a bursting sausage, and the nick-name dates to the first or second decade of the twentieth century. As for the word 'snag', the first reference to it use for 'sausage' given by the Oxford English Dictionary is in 1941, which seems very recent to me.
A sausage sizzle (also referred to as 'sausage in bread' or a sausage sandwich) is a grilled or barbecued food item and community event held in Australia and New Zealand.
'Snags' are sausages, and 'barbie' is a shortened form of 'barbecue. ' So if we say, 'Put some snags on the barbie' we're telling somebody to cook some sausages on an outdoor grill. Incidentally, that formation of 'barbie' is a very Australian thing to do to a word.
Vienna sausage (German: Wiener Würstchen, Wiener; Viennese/Austrian German: Frankfurter Würstel or Würstl; Swiss German: Wienerli; Swabian: Wienerle or Saitenwurst) is a thin parboiled sausage traditionally made of pork and beef in a casing of sheep's intestine, then given a low-temperature smoking.
Australians use a couple of other colloquial words for a hen's egg. The Australian English word googie or goog is an informal term that dates from the 1880s. It derives from British dialect goggy, a child's word for an egg. A closer parallel to the jocular bum nut, however, is the word cackleberry.
Australians call sandwiches “sangers”, most commonly. This is a term that exclusively refers to sandwiches, and is used in most parts of Australia. It could be a long sub, it could be a simple sliced bread sandwich—any kind of sandwich could be called a sanger.
Tucker is a word that Australians use for food. You will hear this word used a lot in more in country towns compared to the city. “I'm really hungry, I can't wait to get some tucker.”
chook. A domestic fowl; a chicken. Chook comes from British dialect chuck(y) 'a chicken; a fowl' which is a variant of chick. Chook is the common term for the live bird, although chook raffles, held in Australian clubs and pubs, have ready-to-cook chooks as prizes.
Courgette & Zucchini – Basically, both are edible forms of the cucurbit plant. The word 'courgette' is used among British and New Zealand people, while that of 'zucchini' is used in North America and Australia.
Here in the UK, for instance, sausages are affectionately known as 'bangers', as in 'bangers and mash'.
The Lorne sausage, also known as square sausage or slice, is a traditional Scottish food item made from minced meat, rusk and spices.
Ketchup is underrated. We call it tomato sauce in Australia.
Australian, British and New Zealand English uses "chips" for what North Americans call french fries. When confusion would occur between the two meanings, "hot chips" and "cold chips" are used.
Dinger. The term 'dinger' may have originated from popular culture, such as television shows, movies, and music; however, it's unknown exactly when the term was first coined. It's commonplace to refer to a condom as a 'dinger' in Australia.
If you can't tell, Australians like to shorten their words! Avo: this is what we call an avocado. This is a good one to know, because smashed avo (mashed avocado on toast) is very popular in Australian cafes.
The most common verbal greeting is a simple “Hey”, “Hello”, or “Hi”. Some people may use Australian slang and say “G'day” or “G'day mate”. However, this is less common in cities. Many Australians greet by saying “Hey, how are you?”.
The other term for ice cream in Australia is "gelato".
Australia's colourful bank notes are known by many colloquial names. The twenty-dollar note is referred to as a lobster, while the fifty-dollar note is called a pineapple, and don't we all want to get our hands on a few jolly green giants, that is, hundred-dollar notes?
The term "esky" is also commonly used in Australia to generically refer to portable coolers or ice boxes and is part of the Australian vernacular, in place of words like "cooler" or "cooler box" and the New Zealand "chilly bin".
