Question

Banger is to sausage as cocky is to f

Answer 1

Relating these to Australian slang words, if "banger" relates to a sausage, then "cocky" would be short for a cockatoo. A cockatoo is a bird that is a native to Australia. Though "cocky" may also mean someone who is overconfident in a bossy way, seeing as how banger is used as a slang word, cocky as a cockatoo is more fitting.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer to the statement: Banger is to sausage, as cocky is to forward, or overconfident.

Explanation:

The explanation to this comes from learning about synonymous words, or synonyms. In essence, a synonym is a word that is spelled different from another but whose meaning is the same as the other word. Banger, in the dictionary, is defined exactly as a sausage, a car in poor condition, a firecracker, or a member of a gang, among other meanings. These meanings come from the different contexts in which the word, and its synonyms are used. In the case of cocky, we learn that this means overconfident, or also, a person who is too forward, and this comes from the synonyms and the contexts in which the words are used.
