  True, the British empire was very influential.

  Many of them are obviously originally British, but a lot of Brits were also encouraged to move Oz in the 60s, which is probably why there is such commonality with the language and slang to this day. Particularly when compared with US, who actively worked to differentiate the linguistic rules by creating American English.

  The language of most countries have been influenced by the invasion or migration of others. It’s just like how many words in the British language have French and Latin origin. Now we’re even being influenced by American English.

No lie. I just heard a stand up comic tell story about being in Australia and every word in a conversation is abbreviated.

LAVISHLY DEMURE

Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson shows us what’s inside her Labubu-laden Louis Vuitton bag. The WNBA MVP always carries two pairs of glasses, depending on what the occasion calls for, and pulls out her favorite snack, a bag of Sour Patch Kids. The most meaningful item in A’ja’s bag is her late grandmother’s coin purse, which she now uses to carry her ID cards. “I don’t put coins in it because my heart’s in it.”
