In page New Zealand English:

"
  • New Zealand favours fiord over fjord,[12] unlike most other English-speaking countries. The fiord spelling was the normal one in English until the early 1920s,[13] and is preserved in many place names worldwide. In New Zealand it is used in Fiordland, a region in the south-west.[12]
  • When spelling words borrowed from Māori, New Zealand English can either spell them with macrons or without (e.g. Maori and Māori are both accepted spellings).[citation needed] Macrons have become more widespread over time.[14]
  • Gram, the unit of mass, is commonly spelt as such and not gramme, which is somewhat found in British English. The same holds true for the word's derivates (e.g., kilogram is more common than kilogramme).[15]
