Lost in translation

Being in an English speaking (well officially anyways) country, one shouldn't have a problem understanding the locals, unless the local uses more slang than English in their sentences! Australians love to shorten their words (probably because they are constantly drunk) and end the contraction with "ie". Here is a list (short) of the expressions I heard so far:

Breakky -> Breakfast

Sunnies -> Sunglasses

Pokies -> Slot machines

Wetty -> Wet Suit

Barbie -> BBQ
[updates]
Brissie -> Brisbane (the city)
Pommie -> People who come from the UK (i have a feeling this is more derogatory than anything else)
Footie -> Australian Football (not soccer, not american football, some weird mix between rugby, soccer, volleyball, basketball)

They also have their variations of other expressions too

Arvo -> Afternoon

Mackers -> Mc Donalds

Minced Meat -> Ground beef

Capsicum -> Peppers (green/red/orange/yellow)

Sultanas -> Dried raisins
