In this episode, we explore a kōrero between two people about different ways to use the word 'mea'

Episode dialogue:

Hēmi: Tēnā, meatia mai te mea rā.

Āpera: He aha te tikanga o tēnā?

Hēmi: Homai te mea rā.

Āpera: Te mea nei? 

Hēmi: Āna, te mea nā.

Āpera: He aha tēnei i te reo Māori?

Hēmi: He pūhihiko.

Āpera: Ā, koia. Nāu tēnei?

Hēmi: Kāo, ehara i a au. Nā Mea, ko wai anō tōna ingoa?

Āpera: Ko Mere.

Hēmi: Kua haere ia ki whea?

Āpera: E aua, ki mea wāhi.
