He rārangi kupu mō te Mate Korona
Kua puta i Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori tētahi rārangi kupu hei taunaki i ngā kaiwhakamāori me ētahi hoa e whawhai ana i te Mate Korona mā te tuku whakapāpātanga i te reo Māori.
“Huri noa i te motu e pōkai kaha ana ngā kaiwhakamāori kia mārama ai ngā hapori kōrero Māori ki ngā kōrero matua, arā he noho kāinga, he oranga tangata tae atu hoki ki te whawhai i te Mate Korona e ora ai te tangata,” te kī a te tumuaki o Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori, a Ngahiwi Apanui.
“Ahakoa tawhiti ā - tinana tātou i a tātou, e honoa ana tātou e ngā reo irirangi ā-iwi, e Whakaata Māori, e Te Karere me ētahi kaupapa pae pāpāho pāpori; e tū kotahi ana tō tātou iwi i te whawhai ki te Mate Korona.”
