The following are results from an OZ-words Competition where entrants were asked to take an Australian word, alter it by one letter only, and supply a witty definition. Clearly, you need to be an Aussie to understand … or not, hehehe!

Billabonk: To make passionate love beside a waterhole.

Bludgie: A partner who doesn't work, but is kept as a pet.

Dodgeridoo: A fake indigenous artifact.

Fair drinkum: A good-quality Aussie wine.

Flatypus: A cat that has been run over by a vehicle.

Mateshit: All your flat mate's belongings, lying strewn around the floor.

Shagman: An unemployed male, roaming the Australian bush in search of sexual activity.

Yabble: The unintelligible language of Australian freshwater crustaceans.

Bushwanker: A pretentious drongo, who reckons he's above average when it comes to handling himself in the scrub.

Crackie-daks: “Hipster” tracksuit pants.

AND, for the Kiwis amongst us:

Shornbag: A particularly attractive naked sheep.
