Maybe I should show you guys some bro-speak.

 

Solle - Person

Gee - Person

Bro - Person

Shana - Person

'Sup - hello

T'sup - hello

Jandals - Flip flops/ thongs/ whatever the hell you guys call them

Whare - Home

Boot - The trunk of your car

Adding the word -as to the end of a word to intensify it's meaning e.g. cool --> cool as

Sweet - Awesome

Smashed - Beat someone up

 

That's not NZ slang, that's just bro-speak. Mostly derivatives of Maori and Polynesian words. A lot of that Aussie slang is NZ slang as well.
