Hello, today I am sharing my Te Reo Māori with you all.

My Goal was to make a Māori conversation using 2 questions: Nō hea koe? (Where are you from) and Ko wai tōku ingoa?(What is your name) Then we had to use as many of the kupu (words) as possible. I made a slide show of two people, and they were asking eachother where they were from and what there maunga (mountain) was and what there awa (river) was. I have learned that kupu means words and some questions in Māori.



Nō hea koe? Ko wai tōku ingoa?

    Well done Lucy! It feels like a very natural conversation. Does everyone in Christchurch use the Avon River?

      HI John, I am not sure it depends where they are from!

      Hi Lucy - your conversation is very good - I can see the new kupu you have learned. People usually use the river that is part of their tūrangawaewae - that they have a connection with. A lot of people in Otautahi use the Waimakariri river. Have you learned any more kupu this week?
