None of the executive phraseologies are corrupted here in Australia In Soo, 
We take fairly seriously the need for standardisation of such phrases in the 
interests of safety, so for example 'cleared for takeoff, cleared to land, 
backtrack approved etc" are all uttered just so.  Having said that, there 
may be circumstances where "standard phraseology" is adapted to suite the 
need or occasion.  The Australian documents (AIP and MATS) take pains to 
indicate that the phraseology is not exhaustive and "plain language" may be 
required in certain circumstances.

Hope that helps
