Two true Aussie females walk into a Myers store, walk up to the perfume

smells it:

"That's quite noice, innit, don't ya fink Cheryl?"

"Yeah, what's it called?"

"Viens a moi."

"VIENS A MOI, what the fark does that mean?"

At this stage the assistant offers some help. "Viens a moi, ladies, is
French for "come to me".

Shazza takes another sniff and offers her arm to Cheryl, saying, "That
doesn't smell like come to me, does that smell like come to you,
Cheryl?"

Good 'un. It made me think about my favorite Aussie joke which ends
in the punchline: eats roots shoots and leaves.

I think the joke is something about what do a koala and an aussie guy
have in common?


Well you have to know that in Oz english root=US screw.

then the punchline makes sense: eats roots and leaves.

So entrenched is this that the wood working tool "router" is pronounced as
in "bout", while I, as an ageing ex-Brit still insists on calling it a
"rooter" - causes blushes with the female staff in Bunnings.

How is it pronounced in the US, or in modern UKese come to that?
