7 RepliesIt's a pretty much everyday Aussie/British way of addressing someone in a friendly, non-descript way. It's kind of like the Swiss army knife of words. G'day mate = Hey man C'mon mate = 2x meanings: Stop screwing around man / Let's go man Good one mate = Nice work dude Piss off mate = Fvck you arsehole Maaaate = Duuuude Hope this helps.

2 RepliesPeople have their slang and they will use it. I say mate plenty, and I know many people who say "fam," "bro," and many other endearments. Just the way people speak is all, and you'll have to deal with it throughout life.

I bet you don't question people using "foo" or "bruh" which are the real idiots because they sound like retards.
