Aussie: ie/ee/y/ey

[ feed | comment feed | cloud | sort:  alpha / order added ]
Australians are in love with having an 'ee' sound on the end of their words. Typically, take a word and chop it down to the shortest it can be while still understandable, then add an 'ee' sound; spelling is not always predictable. All the words in this list are either outright Australianisms or words found more commonly in Australia than other places.
