Hory (pronounced like whorey) means very rugged or ruthless, and often very Maori, and sometimes very Polynesian (not in a good way). This has a similar meaning to feral, mongrel and perhaps hillbilly. It is mostly used in New Zealand and Australia (as there are many hories there). This word may have Maori (native NZer) roots.
Man those are some hory shoes! (the shoes are covered in mud and falling apart)
Dude that is some hory weed! (the weed comes from the great outdoors and was left to grow wild, often has many stalks)
That guy is hory as fuck! (the guy was trying to bang some really ugly lady)
That chick is hory as! (the lady is drunk, a croaky voice, smokes cigs, perhaps maori, poly, or white trash and trying to bum a ciggie off some cute guys)
That's a hory ride! (the ride is probs from before the mid 90's and has heaps of rust and random paint spots etc, cut suspension springs, home made tinted windows)

A word used to discribe the New Zealand equivalent to trailer trash. Horis generally come from areas such as South Auckland and Otara.

Derogatory term for a Maori which has many meanings such as poor, filthy, underclass, rugged etc.
However the term hori has become somewhat acceptable between certain youth these days and is now used in more of a positive way in greeting one another instead of using it as a direspective way.

Anyone who eats the pork-bones straight from the pot, particularly with their fingers. Also someone who wears no footwear to the shops though jandals are sometimes permissable. Female Horis may wear fluffy slippers to the supermarket.

Slang derogatory term used to describe the indigenous Maori of New Zealand. It implies such connotations as: scruffy, poor, thief, coloured.
The term came into affect in the 1900s when a white racist majority wanted to label something they deemed to be inferior. Similar to "nigger and abo"

We are not "Horis" we are the native peoples of New Zealand, treat us with respect, for we were here before you. We let you into our country and were great hosts to you.
Would a "hori" have been so nice? It seem that "Pakeha" are the Horis, for you stole our land, stole our language, and robbed us of our culture.
