Except weirdly they talk about wearing ‘a Speedo’ to swim instead of speedos or budgie smugglersIt was leg-oh in NSW in the 70’s (and still is).
Must admit, haven’t heard “lay-go” before, not even from the over-pluralising Americans who keep wanting to incorrectly shove an ‘s’ on the end to describe multiple pieces.
Oh I misread this as “preggo”Maybe the Italians in Adelaide took "prego" as a template
There’s a thread for that!If you havent then have you really lived???
Maybe we should curb our enthusiasm for such Americanisms?Math, overhead bins, takeout, trash. I could go on….
I always think of “Fantasy Island”…’De plane boss, de plane!’Should I deplane?

After twenty odd years I still struggle to understand some of the stuff the easterners say. .

Actually in Latin, Lego means I read, I believe.Nope. Ask Julius Caesar (lego=I build)...but then again he would have pronounced "veni vidi vici" as "Wayney weedy weaky"
Oops.My poor memory of schoolboy Latin.Actually in Latin, Lego means I read, I believe.
It’s leg-over, so it’s Leg-oh!It’s lay-over
So it’s Lay-go
Yes I believe it’s from a Danish phrase.Oops.My poor memory of schoolboy Latin.
Turns out lego can also mean collect or put together in Latin but that's a coincidence.
Sure someone has mentioned upthead that Lego really comes from Danish for Play well
