Ko te reo Māori te kaupapa matua o tēnei tuakiri ipurangi. He tuakiri reo rua hoki tāku kei Kikorangi.

We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

Ngā mihi ki a Ngāruahine!
A south Taranaki iwi will use only te reo Māori when corresponding or speaking with central government officials from now on and hopes other iwi and kaupapa Māori organisations will follow suit.

Iwi pledges to use only te reo Māori to communicate with Govt
The move comes after the government departments began to prioritise their English names and the Finance Minister questioned agencies funding te reo lessons for staff.

Kei te wā o te ngāhuru tātou, engari he mahana tonu ngā rangi i Tāmaki Makaurau nei. Ko au anō tētahi e tūmanako ana kia pēnei anō, tae atu ki te aranga.

Ka haere māua ko taku tama ki Te Matatini apōpō me tana kura. Koa rawa te ngakau i haere mō te rā kotahi, korowaitia i a tikanga, tō tātou reo, me ngā hau e whā i whakatairanga i a kapa haka!

E kore e taea te karo. Ahakoa ko wai kei te whakahē. Ko Aotearoa te ingoa tuatahi, taketake o te whenua nei.

Peters: Don't use Aotearoa in the House. Seymour: Actually, it's fine
Winston Peters clashes with MPs over the use of ‘Aotearoa’ in Parliament, reigniting debate on the country’s name. Coalition partners are divided, and Luxon remains silent.

E te tuahine. E te māreikura. Takoto mai i te aroha o tō iwi. Ko mātou ēnei e mihi, e tangi nei i tō rironga ki te pō. Ko mātou anō ēnei e taunaki ana i te takohanga ōhou ki te reo Māori, ki te waiata, ki te whanaketanga o te iwi. Haere ki ō tīpuna. Moe mai i te rangimārie.

Kei Muriwai māua i te ata nei, kāore i a au ōku kākahu kauhoe. He wāhi pai, engari he haunga pea nō te tiko o ngā kāhui manu, arā te tākapu. Me hoki au ki te mahi- whakanuia te raumati!

I te Oketopa o tērā tau, i raua tētahi haurua o te kūmara ki te wai. E rua wiki pea i muri mai i puta ētahi tipu. I te Noema, i hangaia he pouaka whakatō. Nā taku hoa rangatira ngā tipu i whakatō. Kei te pohi nei ētahi whakaahua hei whakaatu i te tipu haeretanga o tā māua māra paku nei.
