"New Zealanders will quickly become nettled if they are confused with
Australians when overseas. There is no surer way to upset us," Mr Cryer
told The Sunday Telegraph.
"People may think that the dialects are similar, but Australia was five
days' sailing away for the early settlers and there is a great deal that
they do not have in common.
"The Australians had influences from their native language, and these
Aboriginal words had no currency in New Zealand."
There are often occasions when the two countries have different words
for the same things, he said. One example is the local term for flip-flops.
"The Australians call them 'thongs', a word which in New Zealand refers
to an item of ladies' underwear," said Mr Cryer.
In Newzild, he explained, flip-flops are known as "jandals".
