Ever wondered why your American friends keep making weird faces when Aussies talk? After 7 years of living Stateside, I'm still catching myself in awkward moments thanks to our completely different vocabularies! 🇦🇺➡️🇺🇸
This is an Aussie American slang comparison with a twist!

Today I'm spilling the tea on the most EMBARRASSING words that sound totally innocent in one country but... well, let's just say VERY different in the other! 😂

Whether you're an Aussie planning a US visit, an American confused by your Aussie mate's reactions, or an expat like me who still slips up - this one's for you! I'll share the embarrassing stories that made me realize just how different our languages really are.

💡 Pro Tips for Aussies in America:

Always say "flip-flops" not "thongs"
"Root for your team" = perfectly normal cheering!
"Eraser" is safer than "rubber" at Walmart
Your "bum" is their "fanny" - yes, really!
