"It is quintessentially Australian to detest dobbing.

Time to stop protecting boozy mates, Sydney Morning Herald, 4 November 2004

In a nutshell, in Australian English:

dob - To tell on someone.

dobber - someone who dobs you in

dob-artist (children's word) - dobber

Australians do not like authority. Australian do not like dobbers. "http://www.australianbeers.com/culture/dob.htm Mathiastck 20:23, 23 August 2006 (UTC) this word means to state your name —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.91.7.8 (talk) 00:40, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
