About this listen
Kia ora! Today I have our first guest speaker!
I korero with my friend Mikaere. We are new friends to each other, and, what a treasure it is to build a friendship around speaking Maori to each other.
We wananga today about various interests, te reo of course, etymology and some common etymological myths such as Aloha being a combo of Alo and Ha (grateful to Hawaiian language advocate and expert Dr. Keao Nesmith for taking measures in correcting this myth).
We also touch on tangihanga broadcasting via social media, and whether or not it has a similar vibe to the advent of nupepa to Aotearoa amongst Maori, with the tangihanga details being written down in the nupepa.
We share our favourite papakupu, the use of papakupu for different purposes,
We look at the rise of A.I today. We draw parallels with A.I and Tupua, and the speed at which A.I tech is progressing.
We conclude with a thoughtful question about what it mean's to be Maori, in this day and age.
