Preparing for my Next Maori Lesson为我的下一个毛利语课程做准备
I missed the first (level 3) Maori Language class last Wednesday due to my ignorance in the procedure for online registration into our class through the Zoom App. So I attended the second class on Wednesday 6th May 2020, sitting at home in front of my MacBookAir, using Zoom.
I must admit that missing out on the first lesson meant that there were many words and phrases that were strange to me.
I am reproducing some of the class notes below. Essentially we learned the building up of more Maori sentences and then how to describe the time.
We started off with some basic conversational sentences.
Finally, we have to learn this Waiata (Song) for next week: https://youtu.be/OSjQ0L7C2sE
Purea nei e te hau
Horoia e te ua
Whitiwhitia e te ra
Mahea ake nga poraruraru
Makere ana nga here.
E rere wairua, e rere
Ki nga ao o te rangi
Whitiwhitia e te ra
Mahea ake nga poraruraru
Makere ana nga here,
Makere ana nga here.
English Translation below:
Scattered by the wind
washed by the rain
and transformed by the sun,
all doubts are swept away
and all restraints are cast down.
Fly O free spirit, fly
to the clouds in the heavens,
transformed by the sun,
with all doubts swept away
and all restraints cast down.
Yes, all restraints are cast down.
由于不了解通过Zoom App在线注册到我们班的程序,我上周三错过了第一堂(三级)毛利语言班。因此,我于2020年5月6日星期三参加了第二堂课,当时我正坐在家里的MacBookAir前面,使用Zoom。 我必须承认,错过第一堂课意味着很多单词和短语对我来说很陌生。 我正在复制下面的一些课堂笔记。本质上,我们学习了更多毛利语句子的建立,然后学习了如何描述时间。 我们从一些基本的会话句子开始。
“你好吗?” 毛利语是:Kei te pēhea koe?
我很好。谢谢。Kei te pai ahau. Mihi.
你在那里做些什么?He aha koe i reira?
先在几点了?Ko tehea te wa tuatahi?
现在是下午三点五分。E rima meneti te roa o te toru i te ahiahi.
下午 I te ahiahi
上午. Morena
旁晚. Mo muri atu ite po
晚上. I te po
