farks ache
so we badly misuse the plural of you and stick an "se" on the end, which they also do in London, Essex/home counties, G'day is an abreviation of Good day and mate every bit as cockney. Do we need a "cockney english" for Eastenders to understand???
It's an attempt by these not very old colonies to form an identity, but English is English, these very subtle differences dont even warrent dialects let alone languages of their own..
we dont even have "scottish english" and "irish english" which are actually quite different dialects.
According to my Aunt from Glasgow, the way one would say "throw it out" in Glaswegian is "thraw it tae fuck"
