词组 Oz
释义 Oz
nickname
Australia AUSTRALIA, 1908
Although the pronunciation would always have had a final “z” (the “s” becomes voiced) it was first recorded as “Oss” in 1908 (Australian National Dictionary), and not as “Oz” until 1944, which spelling is partially influenced by the immensely popular 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. Became common in the 1970s.
