Taringa Podcast

MC Grammar is back again, with another deep-dive into the intricacies of our reo. This time, the crew take a look at the various ways to say "and".

While Paraone is still away in Austria, Snowy and Erica answer more questions from you, e Ngai Taringa. They discuss favourite kaimoana, give some advice on using intructional Reo in the house. They also have a brief look at the kupu "hei", using numbers in a listing format and share some thoughts on non-Māori teaching te reo Māori.

Ka aha koe mēnā rā ka tūpono atu koe ki ngā kōiwi? He aha te tikanga me whai e koe? Me waea atu ki a wai? He aha ngā mea ka taea e koe? Whakarongo mai ki tēnei wānanga.

MC Grammar returns to wānanga with us about Pūtohu (complex manner particles) but up another level this time; how to modify them to use in passive structures. 

The Taringa team answer more pātai from you, our audience. These pātai turn into mini wānanga about some favourite kupu whakarite, whether or not a marae should be built in Australia and government agencies using waiata iwi for waiata tautoko.

Tūingoa - Derived nouns. Nau hoki mai ki tēnei wāhanga e kīia nei ko Kupu Kupu Kupu me tō tātou mātanga reo a Jarred Boon e kī nei ko Mc Grammar.

He aha ngā tikanga whakamana tuku mana rānei i mahia ai e ō tātou tūpuna, ka mutu he aha ngā momo tuku mana ka kitea, ka taea rānei i tēnei ao. What is succession or the handing down of mana? Furthermore what types of successions are seen or possible today?

In this episode, Paraone and Erica tackle the challenge of answering a few audience questions, with only 2 minutes per pātai!

MC Grammar is back again with another demonstration and workshop of his elite verbiage abilities. We look at some kupu that specify locations beyond, over yonder, not too far from, no too far after and not too many to confuse you.

Hoki mai anō ki Kupu Kupu Kupu. Ka wānangahia e tātou ētahi anō kupu whakakaha kāore i kōrerotia i te puni 130. Ka kōrerotia hoki ngā whakamahinga e whakaaetia ana te whakamahi me ētahi kāore e whakaaetia ana. Welcome back to Kupu Kupu Kupu. We deliberate over more adjective intensifiers that weren't mentioned in ep 130 (pt 1). We also discuss their permitted uses and their non-permitted uses.

Ka āta wetewete te tokotoru o Taringa i ngā pātai ka tukuna mai e koutou. Kia piri mai ki tēnei puni kia rongo ai, kia wānanga ai hoki i ngā kōrero ka puta. The Taringa trio unpack the queries sent in by you. Join us to hear and deliberate on the conversation that eventuates.

He aha te tohu o te moemoeā? He aha rānei ana whakamāoritanga? Ka āta wānangahia e te tokotoru o Taringa ō rātou wheako ki te moemoeā me ngā tohu. What is the sign of a dream? What are the interpretations? The Taringa trio share their own experiences with dreams and their messages.

Ka hono mai anō tō tātou ake kaiako a MC Grammar ki te whakataka i ētahi anō kura o ngā kupu pūmuri. Hei tēnei wiki ka matapakihia ngā kupu 'anō' me 'rānei' me ana āheinga katoa. Our very own tutor MC Grammar joins us again to drop some more gems on postposed particles. This week we discuss the words "anō" and 'rānei' and a few of their functions.

E panoni ai i te tikanga te kawa rānei me aha te iwi? He aha rānei ngā whakaaro me wānanga?

We have a look back at some snippets of our older Iwi episodes to stir the barrel of mātauranga and prompt your curiosity. We look at eps 137, 178 & 192. If you haven't listened to these eps already - then go back and do so, there is gold in them hills!
