Australian Word Map [This is the print version of story
http://www.abc.net.au/wordmap/regionnames.htm] Australian
English has two classes of regional words. For some items,
speakers must use a regional term because there is no word that
is used all over Australia. For example, there is no word used
everywhere in Australia for the type of sausage known variously
as Belgium sausage, Byron sausage, devon, Empire sausage, fritz,
German sausage, luncheon sausage, polony, Strasburg, and Windsor
sausage. For other items there is a word used everywhere in
Australia, but there is also a regional word. The map below
indicates the Word Map Regional Language Divisions numbered 1
through to 27: Map of Australia « Rollover anywhere on the map
