Was watching that NZ show called Serious Crash Unit the other night and one of the police investigators said that the vehicle "lift the road and het a table drain before coming to rist in a backyard." Or words to that iffict. I wonder from whence cometh this intriguing vowel swapping in kiwi speak - do you know olly? \:\)

We would usually say glaycia, btw, without the 'sh'. It has three syllables - glay-see-uh.
