Aussie vs Australian
I have heard the word "Aussie" many times while abroad and have always considered this term as colloquial, not slang. What do you think?

Sabrina, as far as I know the term AUSSIE continues to be colloquial inspite its wide use. The increment of usage does not determine its change of register. See ya! Pablo |
