Your Definition
The word in Aboriginal English in south-east Australia for a [white person]. Dates back to colonial Sydney and Cockney convicts calling each other and soldiers "guv'ner". This became "gubba" because the "vna" sound did not occur in the local Sydney Aboriginal language. Gubba or "Gub" is [gender neutral] and by itself is not an offensive term. It may also be related to the wider [Australian] words "cobber" and "cob" meaning friend.
