Maori questions

For maori we wrote questions of where food is supposed to go for example kei hea te.../where is the. 

Then we answered the questions useing roto runga and waho .

Next we put pictures onto a slide to tell where food goes for example banana/ panana, frezzer/ pouaka makariri. 

We used the maori dictionary to see how to say fruits in maori.

Prepotions

I learnt about prepotions in maori.

I learned how to say left (maui), right (mato), above (runga) by playing a game called maui and mato where we had to move a stick left or right.

Next I answered questions to tell where items were by using prepositions.

Preposistions

I learnt tei rio maori preposistions.

I learnt tenie means here tera means over there and tena means there.

I need to inprove by practicing at home or school.

Maori countries

For maori I learned questions with fye odie.

The first question I learned was ko muramu it means do you understand.

The next question I learned was kau mutu it means finished.

Maori questions are hard I need to get better at them by practicing on my parents.

Mihi Whakatau

Mihi Whakatau is a Maori term for a greeting.

Mihi Whakatau is traditionally used for welcoming, introductions and openings. It is undertaken by the Tangata Whenua (local inhabitants)

The Mihi needs to acknowledge the significant aspects to the place. The Maunga (mountain), Awa (river), and Iwi (tribe) are generally used.

Introducing Ingoa (name), Oku Tipuna (ancestoral place) and where you live is important for the audience to understand the positions of the Speaker. 

Manuhiri is the term used to describe or group the visitors that are being welcomed.

It is important to end with warm welcome so the visitor know that there is no hostility in the 2 groups being together.

Being respectful of the land, the people and the purpose of a visit will ensure long lasting relationships and connections.

Names and Conversations

This week we carried on with the past three weeks trying to understand names by using the  dictionary. We also learned maori conversations.

First I used the dictionary to search up the names to make them english then I put them on the doc for example If I searched up the Maori name Maaka it will come up as Mark.

Second for the conversations we had to connect the words to the sentences and we had to remember them to memorise the words.

I liked the conversationds becuase it was easy to remember an I learnt new sayings.

Maori

For Maori this week we learned how to say peoples names.
 
We used the dictionary to search up the Maori names to the English ones for example, I searched up a Maori name like Pita then I switched the language to English and the name was Peter.

We had to put the Maori names to English names in the slide by using the dictionary if we did not know the names in Maori.

Another example the names that sound siamialer in Maori and english are probably the same.

Next we played a game we had to move left (maui) and right (matau) in Maori if you let go of a stick you lose. It was very fun.
