Blackfella
Blackfella is an informal term used in Australian English to refer to Indigenous Australians. It is a concatenation of the words "black" and "fellow", referring to their dark skin and their generally-accepted status as fellows. A common misconception is that the term derives from the events that took place leading up to the decline of Indigenous Australians, or when the "blacks" literally "fell". It is generally considered to be a neutral term, and is used by both white and black Australians.
