What do they call speed bumps in New Zealand?

This is a good one! Speed bumps here are called "judder bars". Isn't that a great term?

Oh dear when we already speak about Kiwi Slang, you can wear it now!

Good Day,you can now wear Kiwi Slang NZ at pawsfamilydotcodotnz or pawsfamilydotcom

Speaking Kiwi Slang is sweet as; it is an expression of unique identity, it is part of the New Zealander Culture both historical and contemporary and should not disappear.

PawsFamily want to contribute on saving this “Lingo Heritage” then Kiwi Slang is a “unique way” of sayings and catch phrases that have been passed down from generation to generation and make little to no sense to anyone who isn’t or was nether from/in the Land of the Long White Cloud.

The usage of Kiwi Slang is not considered offensive; rather it is generally viewed as a symbol of pride and endearment for the people of New Zealand so visitors beware!
