Day 5: The Dawn of a New Era…
Activity 1: Translating Phrases
Unlike the Māori, many of the European settlers didn’t speak
Te Reo Māori. Instead, they spoke English. As you can imagine,
it was very difficult for the two groups to communicate because
they did not have a dictionary or a translator. These days we are
able to use the Internet to translate words and phrases from one
language to another.
Use Google Translate to translate the following five phrases from
English to Te Reo Māori or from Te Reo Māori to English. Post the
translations on your blog. Be sure to include the phrase in both the
English and Māori to earn full points.
Phrases:
- Nau mai ki Aotearoa.
- ____ is my name.
- What is your name?
- He pai taku ki te takaro i te whutupaoro.
- Where do you come from?
