The Stratford Press supports Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori - the Māori Language Commission Commission’s campaign to increase New Zealanders’ te reo Māori vocabulary by running a different Māori word to learn each week.
This week’s word is whakapaipaitanga - decorations.
Kei runga ngā whakapaipaitanga i te rākau Kirihimete.
The decorations are on the Christmas tree.
