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 Poutūterangi - March.
I tīmata au i tēnei mahi i te whā o Poutūterangi. - I started this work on the 4th of March.
Note - another word for March is Māehe.
