ask max ten questions youre curious to know about another country

So lamb is lamb lol and sheep is beef , beef mince, beef steak our bros and sisters call it ' hamburger' different to an actually hamburger you know meat Patty's, lettuce etc . Maori hangi is like a Samoan umu they cook roast veges meat in the ground YouTube should show one they have modern ways of doing it when I grew up and for decades they had more traditional methods but because im mostly Nz European best to ask a NZ Maori i dont want them saying whos this pakeha? (Pakeha Maori word for non Maori person )on here or Nzer who knows what they were talking about I've got vague memories of it cooking it in rocks and using a covering of potato sack o.0?? Very vague and early memories. In the islands Samoa they cook it and cover the food in leaves very old traditional method Maori came from the islands. What ya know? You cooked it few weeks ago - cool I'm surprised, its nice aye? You can put berries on and Google Jamie Olivers version altho I don't think you want the calories lol! Your fluffy sheep comment cracked me up -fluffy kins . we say Auckland has four seasons in a day - the weather is very temperamental , changeable.
Would be cool if you could visit one day or we just met up in a tropical island in Aus/ Australia . Sometimes you have to pay for hangi can be expensive. Hangi at Maori Marae, a marae is like where the Maori community and non Maori community meet in a Maori traditional house . hangi is cheaper or free I think at Marae . we don't get snow in Auckland which is in the upper North Island but I use to live in Christchurch in the South it snows there . to describe snow to you its like something's when its thick and your walking on it it makes a crunching sound esp on wooden decks and like if your not careful if your walking on a bit of land or a mountain hill and the ground level is deeper than you know that can make you sink down / fall down when its deep or snowing heavily. Yah its heaps of fun! If you did comecNZ I think I'd have to come to indonesia to be fair I'd love to try your food even though I can't really take spice still yuum food would be yum! I think jet star airline prices are pretty good so Indonesia maybe. Its winter I'd take you to the mountains that's all for now my friend

*SOrry lamb**** heaps of stars for typo Lamb is lamb however mutton is adult sheep meat i was a lil tired phew glad ive got a reason

so Maori main language is Te Reo Maori theres a tone (-) on the "a" of maori i think or the letter
"o" and English and Te Reo is the two official languages of NZ. I love how you are interested in cultures me too thats why im interested in mission in China. Orange? thats cool nice, you should teach NZERS that

I can speak a little not yet conversational its more broken Chinese - Mandarin
lol

Since I am the rare Southeast Asian here, I wanna know about the country of about 90% of everyone here; the U.S.

1. Do most people really like Trump or really despise him nowadays?

2. What is your opinion on Singapore? Have you visited the country before?

3. Is the average American diet as bad as people make it out to be?

4. Is your role model (if you even have one) American?

USA.
Have there been any big changes that have made a difference in any way since you have a new leader, or do things just carry on the same? I dont mean what the news reports. I mean at actual ground level.

USA

Israel
In the arena of the historic sites,which one if any do you guys consider fake or questionable,or just a tourist con job.
I am not saying any of them are,just what do you locals think?
Do you guys have the food related illnesses that us americans are experiencing?
Do most arabs and Jews,have Jewish as well as Arab friends?

1) I don't care for grape jelly of any brand and prefer strawberry preserves
2) Yes, there are diners in every city, and in some small towns. We don't always CALL them 'diners'. I live in the South, and we don't generally call them 'diner' unless 'diner' is part of the name. Generally, we call them fast food joints, or greasy spoons, or most popular in my town, a hamburger joint.
3) It was the transatlantic accent, that Desdichado already explained. He beat me to it.
4) That's alright, post them in your thread later if you think of any.

1)lol
2) greasy spoons thats so american that saying, truth in that "grease". YOu should ask us kiwis about our kiwi colloquial language its so funny " chip off the old block" (my old man) a father or grandfather we got some real funny sayings

i found i was properly Jewish about a year and a half ago I didnt properly start telling people till like half a year ago never been to Y'israeil or have a Israeli accent . Born and raised in NZ I have a NZ accent and have alot of NZ euro blood in me

ok here goes :

1) yes its sometimes funny particularly with rugby games I dont like the rugby Aussie commentators their so biased and a bit racist and prejudiced to the opposition the kiwis (sorry aussies its how I feel about it and have observed)
DONT ASK ANY OF US WHO INVENTED THE PAV- PAVLOVA THEY THINK THEY DID (they probably did haha)
2)no its quite difficult tedious and tiring so most people dont besides thats in the country 1/4 of the population lives in Auckland now 1.5 million out of 4.5 and even though NZ is a farming country heaps of farms most people live in the cities.
3) theres one I knlow of in Matavegas haha the tourist town is called Matamata you drive out a bit from there and you bang into the hobbit stuff
4) Unfortunately I lived in Christchurch during most of the quakes we got out in 2010 and moved up to Auckland i dont like the fact of it , the memory I have trauma but not bad or anything
