Welcome back to another episode of the Aussie English podcast! This is the Pete’s 2c series where I go on Instagram where you ask me anything, and I answer it.

I talk about a couple of things in this episode. My son Noah, who had wanted a kitten, has now adopted Scrap from petrescue.com.au! And I’m so glad he’s getting along with Peaches.

Do you know that cats in Australia tend to get skin cancer on the nose? Yes, they do! I also answered a question about the difference between “present”, “prize”, and “gift”. A question was also asked regarding ‘these’, ‘this’, and ‘those’ and ‘that’.

I also give you my thoughts about foreigners who want to understand the concept of saying ‘mate’ – it’s not just a greeting for us! And lastly, someone asked if there’s an official Australian dictionary – and that’s the Macquarie dictionary. Go check it out online.

That’s it for me today. I’ll see you in the next episode!
