Cobs - what is it?

Short Meaning: Australian word meaning "Friend", can be used in the literal sense, but also as a general greeting towards, or addressing the attention of, an individual person, regardless of whether you have met before.

Long Meaning:

Short for Cobber in Australia. Cobber is a traditional Australian saying which is equivalent to the word "Mate", which itself in Australia means "Friend", but not literally 'Friend', as it can be used as a general greeting by anyone, regardless of whether you have ever met them before.

Cob / Cobber is mainly used today by "True Blue" Australians, (Long settled / Individuals of multi generational Australian heritage), however is rarely used now in major cities and has lost significant favour throughout Australia, with most people now using the word "mate" as the main greeting.

G'day Cob, how you been! (Good day buddy, how have you been)

What do you think of that, 'ey Cob! (What do you think of that hey buddy!)

Cheers Cob! (Thank you)

Ey Cob! (Hey buddy!)

Nice one Cob! (Nice one buddy!)

The creature which creates cob-webs. Commonly mistaken as spiders; Cobs are a similar creature to the spider, ( a cousin to the spider if you will). Spider webs and cob webs are very commonly mistaken for one-another by the vast majority of the population because of close similarity. Cobs are also vary rare, due to environmental changes with in the past 30-40 years; one may hear an elderly person (an individual possibly over the age of 60-65) refer to spider webs as cob webs due to Cobs were more populous during the early 20th century and lurking in many tool sheds, garages, and basements across the country.
