Te Reo Māori Kūki ‘Āirani – Cook Island Language Week

Kia orana koutou!  LS1 have put together a few phrases from the Cook Island language we think would be useful to know – whether it be that you are A) Wanting to start learning the language, or B) Eager to build your vocabulary in different languages.

Meitaki ma’ata to our in-class Kūki ‘Āirani experts Brooke and Nio for your help in teaching the rest of us how to pronounce these phrases.
