We’re largely an international community on here and as such I’ve caught myself saying things that I used to normally never say. Mate for example is something I never said unless I was doing a Crocodile Dundee or Steve Irwin impersonation. Anybody else catch themselves being influenced by our international DJTT members?
Things have gone from being ‘really good’ to ‘well good’… also a certain ‘c’ word seems to have made it’s way in to rather liberal use, I should probably be careful about that lol.
Also picked up some italian expressions but that’s not the fault of DJTT forums
I am also happy to report that I have more Americans using my slang than the other way around.
On average it takes me using the word “mate” 3 or 4 times during a 30 minute cab ride to the airport to ensure the taxi driver says “goodbye mate” when he drops me off.
