Hello, blogging world. It is the end of week 1 and I am so excited to see what the team has placed for us the rest of the holidays! In 1840s lots of English Settlers where coming to New Zealand. At the time they nearly Overtook the amount of Maori Settlers. A great war started over the land, and where the other settlers could build houses. Unlike the Maori the English they did not speak Te Rea Maori so we every
they tried to argue none of them knew what that was saying. In the 2000s we have translators and google. For this activity, we have to use google translate to translate the Phares. Here is the original Phares.

Kia ora Lily,
ReplyDeleteHe rawe tō mahi (your work is excellent). I really enjoyed learning a few new phrases in Te Reo Maori, such as, 'Ke pai Taku Ki Te Takaro I Te Whutupaoro'. Te Reo as it is an important part of the Maori culture and something I wish was more commonly spoken in New Zealand. Do you learn Te Reo Maori at school? If so, what other phrases can you teach me?
Whai i te ra ahuareka Lily,
Megan :)
