has gloss | eng: Westie, or Westy, is a colloquial term used in Australian and New Zealand English to stereotypically describe residents of the Greater Western Sydney, the western suburbs of Melbourne (Australia) or the West Auckland city of Waitakere (New Zealand). It may also refer as a derogatory term to people who might not live in the west of a city. The term is now rarely used and the term bogan is often used instead as bogan has a similar definition but does not refer to a geographical area. |
