A little contribution for Te Wiki Te Reo Māori
🌀
This video is not perfect 😅, there's some mistakes and some written aids, but learning is a process and the important part is taking steps towards learning more and more.
I believe it is so important to keep Te Reo Māori alive: not only it is a beautiful language connected to a beautiful culture and land, but the act of keeping it alive is also a way and a symbol of acknowledgement and understanding of the past, together with a step towards unity for the present and future of this country.
I have filmed the video with the traditional structure for Māori meetings and gatherings: a simple Karakia to open the space, acknowledgements of anyone who might see or join in the video, a pepeha of my origins (my places are from overseas as I was born and grew up in Italy and Scotland), a waiata, closing karakia and some wishes for everyone I know. Not perfect, but I'm getting there 😄
