after consulting the nz toki pona server we have come to the conclusion that Ajotejalowa is better because māori speakers perceive the "ao" as two separate syllables. (this is only from one person though, so take this with a grain of salt)

personally i think we should make new zealand ma Atejalowa (since the "ao" is a dipthong and not pronounced as two separate vowels except for in the national anthem)
