In the US Midwest we say "yeah, no." It's a way of saying "yes, I heard your request, but sorry, I just can't agree to it." I've also lived in New York, where the same thing is "f--- no!" They're a bit more direct.
Small world! That's pretty much exactly the meaning behind it here as well. We also use many variations of the second version when we're not even pretending to be polite.
something not mentioned in this video is that in New Zealand we also say stuff like "nah, yeah" or "yeah, nah, yeah" which both typically mean "Yes" lol

@@skyebates246 The general sense of it is about intensity. If a person's intensely menacing, they're a hard case. Similarly, if they're intensely funny, they're also a hard case. If someone were intensely rebellious and always getting into trouble, you might also describe them as a hard case. If someone has almost any trait to such a degree of intensity that it's noticeable and characterising, then they're a hard case.
Just saw the news about Earthquakes in New Zealand. I don’t have social media outside of TH-cam so idk if you’ve affirmed the safety of your family elsewhere but wanted to express my concerns. Praying for you and your family! God bless 💚
Awww this was so adorable... I'm a Frenchman who spent a year in NZ. Your videos are like a window back there. So heart-warming ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for your either hilarious or adorable (or both!) videos!!!
Video ideas for when the kids grow up: 1. How to get rid of dates 2. How to talk to teenagers 3. How to make them take care of themselves Just some ideas haha
Great video as always, but the absolutely best part is the Dad breaking character and smiling. We see this very funny straight face comedy in the videos but I bet that when he's with his family he's all smiles... you can see how he looks at his wife and they're daughters, like they're his sunshine 💖💖💖
🤣 What a great video idea for kids! Love it. You could do this with any age and lots of slang from different countries. I might try this with my teenagers.
Dad: no clapping!
Nala: start clapping quietly with the tips of her finger
No stealing my comments!!!!! 😂😊
@@Marcg-b4n oops sorry, I type the comment right after I watched the whole video before I read the other comments, but the claps is too adorable tho, it's deserve lot of recognition 😂😂

You never correct a child when they are telling the truth. 😆 However, bugger would not be a word or phraise that I would be encurraging them to say. ☺

So basically if you're a new zealander by birth, you're not yet fully new zealander until you receive that type of learning 😂😂
Yes. This is law. She still has many lessons to go.
T.N.B Productions You're a smart as person and How to Dad is much better than the teachers I had while growing up in beautiful Aotearoa! 🙂
Unlike aussies, we just know it. From brith to death, we can speak our way
Yes, if not you will not legally recognized as a Kiwi toddler

@@HowtoDad the thing is that is that "not even" was the one she had almost perfect, she's selectively learning the ones that could come in handy.
SHES A GENIUS
Nala is getting even cuter when the curly hair gets longer.
Dad, you missed great joke from her at 2:40
She's saying "Hungus" with mouth full of (imaginary) food she ate a few seconds ago.
Daaaamn nala is smart
Exactly!!!
She’s a hard case.
God i love this channel
That's incredible. Nala is an absolute legend
I loved it!! No clapping! Then small little quiet claps😂
I loved that too 😍 😁!
My favourite part ☺

Nala has graduated from “toddler” to “kid”!
She's growing very fast😢
It's so sad!
Isn’t she still a toddler? She is still not talking like a grown up! And sooo cuteee❤
The best part is when How To Dad can’t hold back his own smiles from the way Nala says stuff. Total cuteness he cannot resist!
Nala just casually taking a bite of a hardwood table
I mean it taste good
You mean you didn't when you were little?
It's fibre, isn't it?
at that age, I was putting far worse things into my mouth. Seems pretty normal.
Too sweet for words lol. Nala, from loud clapping to soft clapping - kidspeak for 'I've stopped, like you said... but i'm still doing it, so I win.'
Love when he broke character because of Nala’s cuteness XD
In the US Midwest we say "yeah, no." It's a way of saying "yes, I heard your request, but sorry, I just can't agree to it." I've also lived in New York, where the same thing is "f--- no!" They're a bit more direct.
Reminding me of Borat😂
Small world! That's pretty much exactly the meaning behind it here as well. We also use many variations of the second version when we're not even pretending to be polite.
In Austria we say something like that too: "Jo eh..." The meaning is the same.
something not mentioned in this video is that in New Zealand we also say stuff like "nah, yeah" or "yeah, nah, yeah" which both typically mean "Yes" lol
Then you've got the classic Aussie phrase which likely also exists in NZ and elsewhere, that double positive equally a negative - "Yeah, right."
Nala is the type of kid that makes me wanna have daughters. I don't know about my wife though.
My sister wanted daughters, she gives birth to her second son later this month.
@@janinedear-barlow ouch!

Someone : Did u smile like an idiot while watching this video
Me: NOT EVEN 😃😃
O bugger! Well, you'll be right.
Umm... yes. NO I MEAN NOT EVEN!
blu cheza NOT EVEN me too! 😁
This comment should get more likes
Did you watch it several times like a hungus?
“She’ll be right” meaning don’t worry about anything
Seems to translate to California's "it's all good"
Hakuna matata?
Or as we say in Germany: 'hauptsache Alessio geht's gut'
He'll be right is the male counterpart of that slang.
basically... hakuna matata
Love the genuine laughs when Nala cracks up How to Dad. So wholesome!
NALA'S LITTLE BABY CLAPS AFTER SHE WAS TOLD NOT TO CLAP IS SO FRICKING CUTE, I JUST CAN'T-
I'm melting.
"Did you draw on the walls?" YES!! lol
It's so cute when HOW TO DAD can't help but smile or laugh 😂
Both entertaining and educational 👌
‘Hungus’ is a great word. And ‘Not even’ is good, too hahah.
She is SO PRECIOUS!!
I love it when he breaks character and laughs for a moment ❤️😂 sweetest daughter ❤️❤️❤️
She'll be right. GOLD! Feminine energy
I love how honest she was when you asked her if she painted the walls
Ah well, I'm not from New Zealand however, I have been watching so many of your videos that I now say things like "she'll be right"
She is absolutely beautiful! This was great. I smiled and chuckled through the whole thing. Thanks for that.
The way she giggles is adorable. 😭❤️
We use gutted to mean the same thing in the UK but in the uk hard case means someone that you wouldn't fuck around with like a hard man.
It’s usually meant as funny / silly, but can also be used your way too.
Same way to both of those in my hometown in California
@@owainharris Hard case makes no sense to be used to describe a funny person lol

Yeah it should be something like "wiggly case" or "giggle case" to describe a humorous person ;)
Every time I think I couldn't love this channel more... something like this comes up. Made my day!
Nala is so precious! God bless!!
God. Nana is an angel. Am I the only one that meltiiiiiiing when she say hiiiiiiii???
Your kid is bright and shiny. I like how energetic and lively she is.
Those slow claps by Nala just wow. God bless the lovely kid and amazing family
Hilarious and absolutely precious!! She’s a keeper Dad!!
Nala is no more a toddler, Nala is officially a kid now😂😭😂😭
This could also be called "how to confuse your child into confessing drawing on the wall"
I seriously enjoy watching this, especially his daughters they just melt my heart when they speak
Ah "she'll be right". The classic one😎.
Meaning ?
"All good mate, no problems"
Just saw the news about Earthquakes in New Zealand. I don’t have social media outside of TH-cam so idk if you’ve affirmed the safety of your family elsewhere but wanted to express my concerns. Praying for you and your family! God bless 💚
THE AMOUNT OF PRECIOUSNESS IN THIS VIDEO IS UNFATHOMABLE
How to dad breaking character and smiling to his daughter almost melts my heart
„Not even“ is NZs „As if“
We use that one too
Awww this was so adorable... I'm a Frenchman who spent a year in NZ. Your videos are like a window back there. So heart-warming ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for your either hilarious or adorable (or both!) videos!!!
Your the best!!!!! Amazing content and parenting!
I just loved Nala doing her silent clapping! So adorable! 💗💗💗
seeing how to dad smile/laugh at Nala a few times throughout this video 💕💕
She's soo beautiful 😍💗😭
The genuine laughs were refreshing ^.^
Watching Nala grow up ...
makes me feel like a proud dad...
my favorite channel to go to during these crazy times
Nala is soooo cute 😄
Greatings from germany 👋
Thank you for this lesson 😁
I loved it! You should make more videos showing new zealand slang. You just helped a foreigner
Video ideas for when the kids grow up:
1. How to get rid of dates
2. How to talk to teenagers
3. How to make them take care of themselves
Just some ideas haha
How to get them to clean their rooms lol how to drive although he did that with nala. he just needs a son!! baby 4 in the oven lol
THAT TINY CUTE LITTLE CLAPPING OMG I CANTTTT SOOOOO CUTEEE
What a fabulous father/daughter relationship. 🥰

This is phenomenal. Slang is great exercise for the mind. It makes poets. But it needs to be explained because kids are literal. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO!!!!
she is just adorable
Haha Dad can't contain the genuine smile breaking through the lips, and no wonder! Nala is adorable
Awww Nala is getting to be such a big girl and an excellent student for dad! Great job sweetie....hugs and 😘😘😘from KY.

That little one is just wonderful.
She's such a happy little girl what a good dad you are
this chanel is gold
She's an absolute darling!
Nala is low key dominating this channel lol she is beyond cute !!
Little ANGEL. My goodness she is ADORABLE.
Isn’t this like the best job in the world? You “work” for 5 minutes every week and get to spend the rest of the time with ur family! He’s a lucky guy.
Both Nala and her dad are so cute! 😍
Wish I had a dad like this!! Best wishes to your family ❤
She is soooo clever! Adorable! 💖⭐
She's so cute. Brightened my day ❤️
Loved it :) Takes me back to the time I stayed in Wellington for 6 month. Thanks for making us laugh. Love from Berlin Germany
Hi from Milwaukee Wisconsin 🇺🇸 Almost everybody has German ancestry then Irish; but me half Dutch-Friesian/Italian. I'm alone!😂😁
She is just the cutest!
🤣 What a great video idea for kids! Love it. You could do this with any age and lots of slang from different countries. I might try this with my teenagers.
Dad, gutted is universal! Also I love how Nala is starting so show an accent now too.
Also Bugger too!
Hahaha! Did you draw on the walls? YES!!! Good job raising an honest and hilarious girlie!
"Oh, garlic" is that it???
Omg I was following from 2016 when she was a lil baby
now she's a beautiful princess
love you all
That wasn't Nala. That was her older sister.
"Ah Butter" is going to be my new swear word substitute. Thanks Nala
Nala's always been the sweetest of the 3 'How To Dad' girls..!
I've used "not even' in California; kind of Val-girl talk. Your daughter's voice is so sweet and cute.
Sweet family
I love the total enjoyment Dad has in his adorable Nala!
These kind of videos with Nala are the best haha
Amazing. Three phrases that are new since I left NZ 17 years ago. "Chur", "Hungus" and "Not Even" - this is a sign of a busy, happy culture.
this is so much fun!
You guys could learn Spanish together as well!
We would love to partner with you!
We want more videos of Nalaaa❤️❤️❤️! She’s adorable!
“Oh garlic!” 😂 She’s so cute!
I love her hair!!!🥰🥰🥰
She'll be right. She's got a good dad. :-)
That’s the most beautiful passive aggressive clap I’ve seen 😂😂
OH GARLIC
Besides visiting beautiful places in New Zealand I would love to meet this family specially 😊💯🤩
Dad, she's got you wrapped around her little finger. And your laughing was cute too.
Nala's hiiiiee = Collective Internet Heart melt.
She is so adorable 💜
