Does the creator of seppo know what seppo means? Is the intent for it to mean the same thing or is it named that for some other reason?

What does seppo mean and in which language? It doesn’t mean anything in the languages I know.

Australian slang, a very rude euphisism for a US citizen.
It’s rhyming slang for Yank (Yankee doodle dandy) --> septic tank – > Seppo

I would have never thought of that linguistic flow. :)

It means yank or someone from the USA in Australian english. Commonly used in Australia and anti-USA circles.
