Te wiki o te reo Māori
Hangi is a thing which requires wood,iron,stone and Kai. Kai means food and to make a delicious hangi you need to dig a hole it doesn’t need to be that deep so it doesn’t take that long. After we need to get the wood ready the longest parts of the wood go first they have to reach over the pit. The long parts are heavy and then the other wood pieces go on. Then we need a special type of iron called railway iron that goes on the hangi. They are good because they heat up well and don’t don’t cool down too fast . Now we put the special stones, which are volcanic stones from Taupo, that don’t explode in the fire that makes it special. It might be tall but that’s alright so light it tomorrow and wait for the yummy. Now we get the vegetables 🥕 ready and you can put potatoes but you have to peel the potatoes 🥔. You can put a lot of food e.g pork,mutton,stuffing,potatoes,pumpkin and chicken of course not the Alive one. Now we lit the wood and waited hoping it would not rain. You can use a house to light the fire, then you get the food and yummy yummy hangi.
We do this thing which the teacher puts a pātai which means question in Māori and there is a teacher which you send the answer in Māori it is also very fun and you can learn Māori while doing that and it is very worth it because you can win some very cool prizes. The teacher even put one question in the cabinet. It was very difficult and my friend and I found it. It was funny because we took like 15 minutes to find it normally we take like 3 minutes.
I think Māori is a very good and cool language to learn. The Māori is kind of fun to learn and it is very fun when I have to find what the question says and it helps me to learn Māori and the question helps me a lot. I might also learn my 3rd language and I can talk in Māori to someone who is also Māori and I could ask for more words and soon I will be a Māori expert. I could teach other kids how to speak Māori and they will teach other people.
