Kiwi As, Bro


My favorite Kiwi expressions, I'm sure a few are heavily influenced by the British, but never having been outside of Heathrow, I will happily (and ignorantly) give all the credit to the Kiwis

Sweet as
Example: Bro, wearing really short shorts and gumboots is sweet as.

Heaps
Example: Nah, I don't have any booze, but I have heaps of weed.

Keen
Example: I'm keen to spend the entire night recklessly drinking.

Good on ya
Example: You kicked that bratty kid in the face, good on ya.

Kia ora bro (Maori)
Example: Kia ora bro, what the hell have you been up to?

Ka kite ano (Maori)
Example: I hope to see you again soon, ka kite ano.

No worries, mate
Example: No worries mate. I never much cared for that crap car anyway.

Muntered
Example: Oh man, last night I was so fucking muntered I totally forgot I gave that creepy dude my number

Sweet fuck all
Example: I have a university degree and sweet fuck all to show for it

Stink
Example: That new Terminator with Christian Bale is a stink movie, eh?

Eh
Example: The east coast is awesome, eh?
Note: declarative statements are not favored by the Kiwis, instead they choose to disguise their opinions as questions, or throw in the “eh” to voice support for whatever you may have just said.
