Geography / гора 9 Pin в новой зеландии

English term or phrase: 9 Pin

- Do you know why they call it the 9 Pin?
- Maori legend: There was ah, some sort of ah, spiritual god war happening over here somewhere around Cape Brett. And the God of the land spat the pin out. And it landed there. And if you invert the pin and take it over there, there is actually a cave that it will fit into.
- No. You’re taking the piss.
- Mate, would tangatawhenua lie to me? Aye?
- I thought they called it the 9 Pin because it looked like the 9 Pin of a bowling thing.

Последняя строчка: Я думал ее так называют, потому что она похожа... На что?
