If you go to YouSwear.com and click on Australian there is a
fairly thorough listing of improper words used "down under". Which in
itself sounds a bit off color. Which, come to think of it, sounds a bit
un PC too. Oh well.
In my experience Australians enjoy emphatic speech. My late father
in law, for example - although a very middle class sort of Australian
insurance company executive - used "bloody" or "bugger" in about every
sentence.
