A segment on BBC Radio 4 discussed the British trend of adding "edges" and "as-as" to words, such as calling Madonna "Madge." This led to a discussion of Australian slang abbreviations like "ambo" (ambulance), "garbo" (garbage man), "servo" (service station), and "tradie" (tradesperson). The hosts joked that using these terms constitutes "cultural appropriation" of Australian culture.
