A.G. Pretty's Glossary of A.I.F. Slang (World War One)

(E?)(L?) http://www.anu.edu.au/andc/res/aus_words/wwi/index.php

Glossary of AIF Slang (WWI)
The glossary, compiled by the newly formed Australian War Memorial’s librarians over the period 1921 to 1924, provides a snapshot of the language of the soldiers who had fought for Australia and the Empire in the Middle East and Europe. Over 900 terms are included in the glossary, some Australian, some more general, but all with special relevance for the troops’ experience of the war. We can get a real sense of how the average soldier spoke (the swear words that no doubt were also a central part of the soldiers’ vocabulary did not make it into the glossary, although some are alluded to). We also gain a sense of how Australian soldiers brought to the battlefields a distinct ‘Aussie’ identity revealed in this ‘slanguage’.

po juggler (W3)

Der umgangssprachliche austr. "Po Juggler" = "an officer’s servant" geht auf den ersten Weltkrieg zurück. Mit "Po" ist dabei zwar nicht der "Hintern" gemeint, aber es liegt nicht weit daneben. Es geht auf frz. "pot" oder "chamber-pot", "pot de chambre" = "Nachttopf" zurück. Der Diener eines Offiziers ist als derjenige, der mit den Nachttöpfen jongliert (die Nachttöpfe ausleert).

Laugesen, Amanda
Diggerspeak: The Language of Australians at War

Oxford University Press
ISBN 0-19-555182-6


Wars have been highly significant in the development of Australian English, generating new words and meanings. Rather than a collection of military slang or jargon, this dictionary draws together the diverse words produced and used by ordinary Australians at war, and examines their ongoing and contemporary usage. The language of Australians at war reveals a great deal about the experiences and understanding of war and is also a fascinating insight into Australian culture and values.

Moore, Bruce
A Lexicon of Cadet Language:
Royal Military College, Duntroon, in the period 1983 to 1985

Australian National Dictionary Centre, 1993. 488 pages
ISBN 0-67315-1377-0


This book documents many aspects of the language of male army cadets at the Royal Military College, Duntroon, Australia, in the period 1983 to 1985 (immediately prior to the creation in 1986 of the Australian Defence Force Academy, a tri-service academy which accepts both male and female cadets).

The book includes over 2000 terms. Many are Duntroon-specific, but the book also includes terms associated with the more general military life and with cadets' extra-military activities. The terms, their definitions, the extensive citations showing how the cadets themselves use these terms, and the scholarly and often witty analysis of all of the material combine to make this book a significant and entertaining contribution to our understanding of the Australian language.

You can order this book by sending a cheque for $22.50 (payable to ANDC) to The Australian National Dictionary Centre, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 0200. Overseas customers should enquire about postal charges by fax (06 249 0475 ) or by email (ANDC@anu.edu.au).

NB Readers should be warned that this book contains many terms which may cause offence. There is also much sexually explicit language.
