Do Australian idioms work in the UK?

[Boris Tatarenko]

Hello.

As you probably know, I'm going to live Australia that's why I'm learning this list of idioms https://www.usingenglish.com/reference/idioms/country/australian+english.html

I'm interested whether these idioms work in the UK or US or not. ;-)

Thanks.

The only one that I know is used in BrE is "Stone the crows" I have heard most of the others but, to my knowledge, they are not widely used.

Vice versa then :-D. Do British idioms work there? I think it's quite a stupid question, but I'll be happy to know.

Some of those are very old fashioned. I have no idea if any of them are used in Australia.

None of the listed Australian idioms are common in the US.

They have all been contributed by Australian speakers. Many British idioms will work there, but probably not all.

I'd understand about half of them.
