«Australian-English, English-Australian» is the travel and humour guide by Anthea Bickerton (Abson Books, paperback, 40 pages, English).
«Australian-English, English-Australian» contrasts, in a light-hearted tone, the English spoken in Australia with standard English, gathering characteristic words, expressions and usages. It is intended as a travel companion: it helps recognise everyday vocabulary, follow conversations and avoid misunderstandings, while also bringing the reader closer to some cultural peculiarities of the country.
Second revised edition, published in October 1993; the work originally appeared in 1976.
For travellers who want to get by in Australia and for readers interested in the peculiarities of Australian English.
