Talk like a Kiwi


I came across this video in my Facebook newsfeed this morning and just had to share it. Yes us Kiwis definitely talk like this - well worth watching.

Are there some funny things you say in your country that the rest of the world could learn?

Loved it! But been away far too long. Only heard about half of them. The language has evolved!!!

I love it. I've heard many but not all. I think I'd hear more of them if I hung out with a younger crowd :)

It really made me a bit homesick but It also made me realise just how many of those words are in use with the same meaning here in Britain. I say the Britain because here in Scotland many of the words are quite different to England and the same goes for Wales. I will go back and explore some of her other videos.

Oh that made me smile Amy ☺ I love the New Zealand accent. A lot of the expressions are the same as here in Oz, just with that very distinctive NZ accent!

Oh my gosh, I love that! That was so much fun!

Westport News

  This has been one of the early buildings in Westport from the 1870s that is still being used for the local newspaper, so much old Victoria...
