Who invented the term (Maccas) for McDonald’s Germans or Australians?

[Thinking_CEL]

Cause I used to think it was something Australians did like in the US nobody says let’s go to maccas bro but Australians do

And I’m in Germany and they do also so now I’m wondering who invented it was it Australians or Germans?

[Thinking_CEL]

that sounds so fucking shit

Jfl the only reason I understand when ppl here say it is cause I saw it in a video about different words in American vs Australian English

Then I thought it was something Aussie and it even sounds Aussie but for who knows what reason I hear it very often here in Germany every time someone wants to go to McDonald’s they say maccas I never heard a German say McDonald’s

 

[Beastimmung]

We say megges (mecces) not maccas

 

[AustrianOak47]

we don‘t say it like that

 

[Thinking_CEL]

We say megges (mecces) not maccas

Sounds the same tho when they say it fast

Idek if that’s how u spell it In Australian maybe it’s Mecces

Point is the pronunciation is almost the same

I assumed it would be with a C cause McDonald’s has no g

Apperantly germancels are saying it’s megges like that doesn’t even sound like McDonald’s it’s a whole new word

 

[Thinking_CEL]

we don‘t say it like that

It sounds the same tho cause the only reason I knew what the nigga was talking about when I heard it is cause I saw in some fun facts about Australia video

Idk I've never been to Germany, but it's used frequently here and also in New Zealand.
