Maori Names

 Today we matched Maori names with English names. For example: Raniera - Daniel and Maaka - Mark. We couldn't use Maori dictionary this time. 

The first activty we did was Maori names. There are some letters that are not in the Maori alphabet. J is H, D is t, D and L is r, and V is W.

The next activity we did was Maori conversations. There was a Maori sentence and we had to translate it into English. For example: Kei te haere au ki te kāinga o Mr Smith i tēnei rā, - I’m going to Mr Smith’s home today,

Nō reira, kia ora koutou katoa. - So, congratulations to you all.

I learnt new names today in Maori and enjoyed these two activites. I enjoyed those two activities because it helped me know different names in maori.
