   What many of us (Americans) believe to be a popular greeting in Australia. Many people get this idea from the media, which makes it seems like every time you see an Australian person they will say this. NOT TRUE! I spent 2 weeks there and didn’t here that ONCE! Yes, they say mate and an occasional g’day but I never heard them together. It’s more of a stereotype than anything else.

   • Example: American (sees Australian, wants to make it look like Americans know anything about other cultures): G'day Mate! Australian: Wtf? Oh, hello. American: I thought all Australians say that. Australian: Nope, almost none of us do. American (feels like an idiot): Bye then. Australian (thinks, what an idiot): Bye.
