Yes, "arse" is the correct spelling in Australia.
Americans are stupid-- an ass is a donkey-- an arse is someone's bum!
And a bum is not a homeless guy, that is a tramp... ;P
Ah, the complexities of international linguistics.
But, what I was asking, is, "Can the word 'sad' be slapped on to the beginning of the word 'arse' to make an entirely new word? Or was that word already in use and I just unaware of it?
