Here are some examples as to how the word of the week can be used everyday.
The examples used here are based on listening to and using Te Reo Māori with people predominantly from Ngāti Kahungunu ki te Wairoa and Tūhoe.
Te wiki tuawaru (week 8/8 September) pahi/bus
Kua tae mai the pahi – The bus has arrived.
Kua haere the pahi – The bus has gone.
Haere ki the pahi – Go to the bus.
Kia tupato. Kei te haere mai te pahi – Be careful! The bus is coming.
