mate

A multipurpose word in Australian cultural context which can denote friendly affectation or alternatively, threat depending on the context in which it is used.

Australian culture can be confusing to outsiders when they call those they like, cunts, and those they dont like, mate.

Its all in the tone and context.

1: (friendly greeting) How ya goin mate.
2: (threat) I wouldn't try that if I were you,...mate!
