did you guys know that 'gullible' is NOT in the australian dictionary?

This is a trick question. There is no "Australian Dictionary"

Any such compendium is published by the companies which produce either the Oxford or Cambridge Dictionaries. Meaning they are both English.

But yes, the word gullible is in every English language dictionary.

Sorry Bro you're waaaaaayyy to soused. :bahaha: :bahaha:

It is a joke, NOT a trick question, only the gullible people say "really" "i didnt know" :rolleyes:

And YES you are wrong again, sorry, Heinemann make an Australian Dictionary, complete with slang words, colloquialisms and Australian Terms...

I have a copy...maybe I made it myself :confused:

Ok, so why dont you tell me then, what is an Australian name? What does it look like? Uluru? Moomba? Wilcannia? Didgeridoo? Platypus? koala? Etc...

Most of us living here are imported, like our cars...although I am 4th Gen Oz my own First & Lastname's are hardly Australian!

Wow - a publishing query. I hardly ever get these...

Actually Ed - both Oxford and Cambridge have production and publishing facilities here in Melb (both in Port Melb).

Cambridge Uni Press offer education textbooks for secondary and higher education markets, as well as localised prints of reference products. Really nice offices too :(

Oxford Uni Press do produce an Australian 'localised' version of the dictionary amonst other reference material. They also publish material in the primary, secondary and higher ed markets.

Heinemann Reed-Elsevier was established in the USA. Heinemann have offices in Port Melb (funny that) opposite an indoor go-karting facility.

Heinemann offer some reference trade books (dictionarys etc) but are mainly focussed on secondary and higher ed educational publishing.

They have many other arms covering primary and trade publishing which are in turn joint-affiliated with larger publishers - like Thomson Learning :(

If you would like to contact any of the publishers - I can provide contact details.

It's OK - I'll get back to work now :D

      Starting again

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
