E karanga ia
from A Maori Podcast Hosted by Ihira
Kia ora kia ora! Nau mai ano ki tenei pahorangi! This episode covers the use of the "E __" Structure. Per Te Wiremu: Indefinite: Future Affirmative: E karanga ia, or Tera ia e karanga, He will call. Negative: E kore ia e karanga, or Tera ia e kore e karanga, He will not call. For our Whakatauki, I share a very importance distinction of how the "A" and "O" categories can drastically affect the meaning of a word. Anyways, our whakatauki is: To ringa ki te rakau a te pakeha. Do not say (unless that is what you mean haha) To ringa ki te rakau *o* te pakeha. Kia ora mai!
