The Language of Kiwi Holidays

Kiwis use a lot of slang words during the holiday season to talk about where they are going, what they are taking and so on. Words such as brekkie, barbie, wop-wops, bangers, rellies, bach, going bush, are just a few words you need to know. Migrants may not know what these mean and such vocabulary may not be found in the dictionary either. So chill, grab a tinny and listen to this lesson.
