Summary

Amanda scrolled through the spreadsheet  but couldn't find the phrases she wants,trying to update a dictionary on a shoestring budget. She looks for phrases that meet these standards: originate in Australia, have a great currency in the country and a special significance in Australia history. Therefore,they have to scan Twitter,read memoir after memoir and look for phrases that have become more valuable among Indigenous Australians and new communities of Australians.

She claims that the story might not be totally evident but it has to be there.


After hearing this news and Mr.Lin's indirect description of Australia, it just motivated me to go and check there by myself. Imaging you are in a wild field,facing the original ocean and breathing an exotic vibe, I must feel so free and enjoyable. Or in the opposite,I feel I am just in the hug of nature. Anyway, this stimulates my strong sense of travelling and escaping. Damn it! When I can go there !🤣
