surfing the net, found these kiwi-isms on the make new zealand home website. thought they were funny:
Sweet as - cool, great
She’ll be right - it will be ok
Rark up - give someone a good telling off
Rack off - go away
Pack a sad - become morose, ill-tempered and in a bad mood
No Worries - not a problem
Hissy fit - throwing a tantrum
Hard Yakka - hard work, intensive labour
Going bush - becoming reclusive
Crikey Dick - wow, amazing
Brassed off - disappointed, annoyed
Box of Birds - feel full of energy
Bit of a Dag - hard case, joker, comedian
i guess we need to try to assimilate sooner rather than later!
