    It’s RHYMING slang.

    Don’t feel too bad, so far i’m the ONLY English person who has got 6 out of 6!

    Ha ha! I got one right, but I think with practice I might improve!

    And I never knew Ice Cube was so personable. Very impressed with this video for that reason too.

    Well done Jenny.
    I’ll tell you something. Whistle and flute is a suit.
    That makes it a whistle.

      They introduced it during the Second World War to confuse the Germans.

    HAHAHA! So I failed miserably. I didn't get a single one right. It was fun, though!

    Too right! I got two right!

    But then, I understand our Aussie slang words and terms...whereas others from elsewhere other than Australia do not. :)
