About this listen
Kia ora ra e kui ma e koro ma!
This week I touch on how to express Reciprocity. Here is what Ray Harlow has to say (A Maori Reference Grammar, pg 61)
Me aroha tetahi ki tetahi - We should love one another
Na, kati ta tatou whakahe tetahi i tetahi - Let us each stop passing judgement, therefore, on one another (Paipera, Romans 14:13)
Me inoi ano koutou tetahi mo tetahi - You should pray for one another (Paipera, James 5:16)
I also look into answering the question "Does how you sound when speaking Maori really matter?"
My opinion is that I want the way I speak the reo to sound as close as possible to how our people spoke, prior to the domination of the English language.
The main points of advice I offer are to:
- Check out and listen to the Radio Kahungunu Archives - This is by far my favourite resource.
- Listen to how our cousins from Te Moananui a Kiwa and how they sound when they speak their reo as most of the time that is their first language.
- In Maori, T has two sounds [tʰ] and [t],
- Focus on listening as much as possible
kia ora ra,
