Beer does flow and men chunder. ... chunder verb 1. to vomit. --noun 2. the act of vomiting. 3. the substance vomited. [probably rhyming slang Chunder Loo spew, from the advertising character drawn by Norman Lindsay, Australian artist] (from the Macquarie Dictionary) Though it may be likely that this word actually stems from the shortened use of "watch out under". As they spewed over the side of the boats of the first fleet that delievered the convicts to the shores of this land. Well, ships do lurch about and create seasickness. I find this hard to believe unless someone else sang that phrase out. Ever tried telling somoeone to get out of the way before you chunder? Though it is also likely that there were quite enough people on those overcrowded ships to perform the task of informing those under, that the impending stream of diced carrrots was on its way over the edge. They would also have to be watching for the telltale signs. If anything this may have been the word created from shortening the above phrase from a slightly different perspective. That of the hapless convicts taking turns for fresh air at the porthole. The sailors themselves may have felt for those below and warned them whenever one of the officers was about to "chuck his lunch" overboard. However I can find no evidence that this is correct. this may well have been becaus ethe convicts may well have kept such things to themselves as their own language. Many people were isolated from each other in Australia's early years. There was little or no formal education at first and each property/farm would have had its own language idiosyncracies. The term gerzunder means chamberpot but this bears no relation to the pot itself or its name. It is actually a shortened version of "goes under the bed"
