Never even realised this was an Australian thing. I kind of assumed it was a universal English thing, with the more Australian variant being "no wuckas".

- gradstudent 11y agoNo wuckas? Now you're just making stuff up.
- sfrechtling 11y agoNope, very Australian, with another varient being "no f$&king wucks"
- phillc73 11y agoNo they're not. It's short for 'No wucken furries', but it's used in a more humorous way and not in polite company.
- chris_wot 11y agoNope, that's often used. I personally don't use it, but I know others who have, frequently.
- vacri 11y ago'No wuckas' is nowhere near as common as 'no worries' in Australia. 'No wuckas' is only when you're being blokey and making a point of the phrase; raising the 'ocker' factor. Most day to day usage is 'no worries' - in most retail shops, for example, if you thank the staff for help, they're not going to say the 'wuckas' variant.
- rmccue 11y agoAbsolutely, it's a much less formal term, primarily due to the origin.
