Kiwi Language 101: Speak Like A Sloppy Kiwi
The Kiwi language. If only we could learn to pronounce our words perfectly like the Americans - But without the accent!
Here’s a great example of the sloppy Kiwi pronounciation:
Word: PRODUCE
Sounds simple enough, one would think. Heres how a Kiwi would pronounce the above word.
Drop the pronounciation of the ‘D’ and substitue for a “J”. The word then becomes:
Kiwi Word: PRO-JUICE
As if it were some kind of new sports drink!
Here’s a beaut! One the Australians give us grief for:
Word: BRISBANE (As in Queensland, Australia)
Substitute the “S” for a “Z”, and replace “bane” with “Bin” (As in rubbish Bin)
Kiwi Pronounciation: BRIZBIN
