這個問題太難回答了!
什麼叫做這邊常會用到的單字?
好難定義喔!
只能說就是英文，
如果真的要說有差別，
也就是每個國家即便是英文說法也有一些小差異，
如果真的要問我這邊常會用到的單字，
我還真想不出來呢!
講最多應該不外乎是：i'm good, thank you(店員會一直問，就回他).... savings(付錢時最常用的帳戶)...take away(點的東西要帶走)....
好難回答的一題啊!

"no worry~"
很好用...
用在別人向你道歉時...
用在別人向你謝謝時...
用在別人對某事擔心時~

時光終於把熱情耗盡
"No worries." as the word "worries" is plural is the correct way to use it.
You can use "Dont worry" or "Dont worry about it" if you prefer singular.
Moreover, it's ok to use "No worries" when "別人向你道歉" or "別人向你谢谢"; however, when "別人对某事担心" you'd better use "Dont worry about it", because it sounds more sincere than "No worries."
There are a few slang words I picked up from here, you can take a look. They are different than the American which we are more familiar with.
Hello! = G'Day
Thank you = Cheers
Buddy = Mate
You are welcome = No worries

學會習慣曾不習慣的習慣
我才去澳洲玩回來,
剛入關的海關跟我說see you later...讓我嚇一跳
因為我行李裡面偷偷塞了很多食物
我發誓我當時不知道不能帶食物
不過又昧著良心填寫申報單～全部勾選no
所以當海關沒有檢查我的行李箱
跟我說一聲see you later的時候
我以為完蛋了...他可能要準備要好好的查一查我
結果完全是我誤會了
他只是單純的跟我說bye的意思
後來發現原來澳洲人常常用see you later作為bye
哎～可能是我太遜了...
