Summer Learning Journey: Week One Day Five Activity One: Translating Phrases

Day 5: The Dawn of a New Era…
Activity 1: Translating Phrases
Unlike the Māori, many of the European settlers didn’t speak Te Reo Māori. Instead, they spoke English. As you can imagine, it was very difficult for the two groups to communicate because they did not have a dictionary or a translator. These days we are able to use the Internet to translate words and phrases from one language to another.

Use Google Translate to translate the following five phrases from English to Te Reo Māori or from Te Reo Māori to English. Post the translations on your blog. Be sure to include the phrase in both the English and Māori to earn full points.
Phrases:
  1. Nau mai ki Aotearoa.
  2. ____ is my name.
  3. What is your name?
  4. He pai taku ki te takaro i te whutupaoro.
  5. Where do you come from?

  1. Hey there Saveu, thanks for translating these phrases from English to Te Reo and Te Reo to English using the Google Translate tool. I love the way you've presented it to, it's really easy to follow and understand.

    Have you ever used the Google Translate tool before?

    Thanks, Billy
