A bunch of amazing Kiwis are taking to social media to display their knowledge of te reo.
It’s all part of Māori Language Week, where te reo is getting the recognition it deserves.
Shortland Street actress Ngahuia Piripi shared a cute snap of her in a traditional kapa haka outfit with the hashtags “#proud #maori #pukanaemoji”
TVNZ’s Sunday host Miriama Kamo is spreading the te reo love on Twitter.
Of course, The Hits crew, Sarah, Sam, and Toni are excited about reading Stace and Scotty Morrison’s new book, Maori At Home.
And so is singer Anika Moa!
Lotto host Sonia Grey filmed with her family to celebrate, “filming with the whanau!”
The Project host and ex-weather girl, Kanoa Lloyd gives us a pronunciation lesson in Cromwell.
“Tino ataahua (tee-nor ah-tah-hoo-ah). Very beautiful. #tewikiotereomāori#KoreroInCromwell”
Kiwi actress and director Jennifer Ward-Lealand is happy about her new book too, which is ‘an everyday guide to the Māori language.’
