What is 'Strine'?

What the heck is "Strine"?!


"Strine" /strʌɪn/
Informal (Noun): the English language as spoken by Australians; the Australian accent, especially when considered pronounced or uneducated. "I found myself speaking Strine within minutes of arrival".
(adjective): relating to Australians or Australian English. "He spoke with a broad Strine accent".











💥 NOTE: We do NOT ALL say these things or talk like this... but our accent can sound very strong! I'd say these words/phrases are just part of the Aussie psyche.
