NZ Slang womens t shirt - How many ways can you say something without saying it properly...? Use slang! The slang words on this tee have been around for years. Words like mate and dag define us as a Kiwi’s, fairly relaxed and easy going. Here are some goodies: Mate – Good on you mate (Friend) thanks for doing that. Dag – Typically Kiwi. Dags are the scraggly bits of fleece that hang off a sheep’s behind and look a bit strange. You are a bit of a ‘dag’, meaning you are a funny or silly person. Godzone - is the first sang word for New Zealand. Gods own county was the description given to people to encourage them to settle here. Spot ya! (See you later)
