Huh, I never heard of whackaroo before (neither did my keyboard app)!

It's a non-English one, and we "break" the "road" (also path) when we cut a path in the forest.

oh, i really don't think "whackaroo" is a real word, i just made it up as an example of the type of thing theyd' come up as a word in Australian-English, they have crazy ones down there.
