New Zealander

Hi teachers,

Would you tell me if it is grammatical and natural to say New Zealander kiwis?

Thank you.

We talk about Egyptian asps, Himalayan yaks, Asian elephants, Columbian tobacco, etc. I see no reason not to consider New Zealander kiwis to be natural. Unless, of course, there exists a better adjectival form other than New Zealander, of which I am unaware.

Hi Philip,

Thank you for your help. Are the people of New Zealand called New Zealanders?

Thanks again

There might be a slang term for them that I don't know, but that's what I would call them.
