There’s a very common story about the original name the animal, kangaroo. The story is: when some British people went to Australia for the first time an English man asked a local child, “What’s the name of the animal?” and the child says, “Kangaroo”. Kangaroo was an answer meaning “I don’t know” . I’m sure most of you heard this story, but the fact that it’s just a myth and it’s false. Here’s the fact: Kangaroo doesn’t mean “I don’t know” or “I don’t understand”, it is derived from ‘gangurru’, which is a word in the language of the local people of Far North Queensland which means ‘black kangaroo’.
