Definition Of Maori Words!

Today is the last day to finish off the rest of our EOTC week challenges. I have finished 3 and this would be my last challenge. This challenge is more about the heritage, Maori, and to know more about the Marae that the year 8's will be going to next week on Tuesday. For this challenge, we have to define the vocabulary words that are down below, with full sentences. We also got to use a website to help us with this challenge. Here is what I have done and the website I have used to help me.

Waiata:

A waiata is a special song that brings a community or a family together and that can welcome people in the marae.

Powhiri:

A powhiri is a word to welcome people from other schools, other countries or a new family member in the marae. It basically means a welcoming ceremony with dancing, singing and a couple of speech's from important people.

Kaikaranga:

A kairanga is a women that is a caller of a group. The caller of the group is more appropriate for an adult women since they are more sensible for the job.

Rangatahi:

Rangatahi is like a quote which is "Our young people are the leaders for tomorrow". What I think it means is that the kids are the legacy of their marae.

Kaikorero:

A kaikoreo is a male adult that says a speech to the people. This role is more appropriate for a male adult and not for a female adult.
