Mate = Originally a german word, derived from the germanic word "māt" which means comrade. However, with trade travels and whatnot, the english changed that word into the now known "mate". However if there's any dobuts about legitimacy, England is much much closer to germany than australia is, so we can clearly assume that the term "mate" is more english than australian.

That said,

English Slang "Mate" = English.
United States = Initial settlers were English.
English = Global Language.

So fuck off mate, everyone has the right to speak as they wish.

I do not aim for your "lulz". I aim to shut you up; In a kind way.
