Learning New Zealand slang (Kiwi slang) is essential if you are living, studying, or travelling in New Zealand. Even if you are from an English speaking country, there are many words in the Kiwi vocabulary that are not used in Australia, the United Kingdom, or the USA. New Zealand English has adopted many words from the Maori language, including greetings, activities, body parts, and of course food!
