Maori Names

 Today I had to translate Maori words into conversations.

First we were given ideas to help us match  Maori names into English names with out using a Maori dictionary.

Second we had to Translate Maori conversation into English conversation. We were aloud to use a Maori dictionary to help us translate the conversation. 

Example of translating Maori conversation  into English conversation 

Tēna korua- Hello

Ko Ashley taku ingoa- My name is Ashley 

Ko Henare tōku papa- My dad

Ko Moana tōku mama- My mum
