  • New Zealand favours fiord over fjord, unlike most other English-speaking countries. The fiord spelling was the normal one in English until the early 1920s,[9] and is preserved in many place names worldwide. In New Zealand it is used in Fiordland, a rugged region in the south-west.[citation needed]
  • 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.[10]
  • Australia and New Zealand always use jail over the British gaol (which is now considered obsolete, even in the United Kingdom).[11][12][13]
