Strine is a term coined in 1964 and subsequently used to describe a joke or made-up "language" purportedly spoken by Australians whose accents frequently run words together in a type of liaison. The term is a syncope, derived from a shortened phonetic rendition of the pronunciation of the word "Australian" in an exaggerated Broad Australian accent.
