About

The companion volume to the author’s A Dictionary of Kiwi Slang, 25,000 sold. This collection expands into catchphrases, commentaries, jokes, ditties and characters contributing to Kiwi English as we use it, and includes a revised an updated version of The Dinkum Kiwi Dictionary, which has been out of print in the nineties.

Do you know the difference between a goneburger, a turboburger and a wallyburger? Who are Les Miserables Bastards and why don’t they like kiwifruit? All is revealed in this double-value sequel to the first slang collection Harry Orsman in the Evening Post called ‘a delight’ and Professor Gordon in the Sunday Times said was ‘a real bewdy’.
