“Sidney Baker, Harry Orsman and David McGill have all produced wonderful collections of New Zealand-bred slang terms. I have taken a blanket approach, stuffing everything in regardless of its origins. If we currently speak it, write it, text it, tweet it, facebook it or blog it I've attempted to record it here. However, when I could identify a word or phrase which probably has a kosher Kiwi heritage I have attached a (NZ) tag and, where appropriate, a potted explanation.” – Noel Kelly
