_______________________________________________
AFAIK never used in a sentence.
Here's the (very) few Oz-related items that I'm aware of:
nu'SIylan New Zealand (GN) [TNK]
taSman ditch (n) [MO > 'ISqu' (1/15/2012)]
(QeS, 1/26/2012): the Tasman Sea, which separates Australia and New Zealand. Both Kiwis and us Aussies often refer to the other country as being "across the ditch".
rejghun undergarments, underwear (n) [qep’a’ 2019]
(Chris O’Regan, July(?) 2019): has anyone considered that {rejghun} could resemble the Australian rhyming slang term - Reg Grundies' - to mean undies?
And, finally, De'vID once joked :
(De’vID, 4/24/2019): You must be talking about the {qengwI' ru'}, a mammal native to {Qo'noS} which carries its young, but only temporarily until they're old enough to survive on their own.
Any others?
