Kia ora!

We look at modifying our sentences with the word paku. Per Ray Harlow [A Maori Reference Grammar, pg 43]

He paku te wa - Time is short

Kei ko paku atu - Just beyond

Ka haere au ki te paku awhina i a ratou

He paku raruraru - A small problem

Kaore ia i paku aro mai ki te korero a te kaiako.

Our panui was taken from the Radio Kahungunu archives. You can find the exact time I pulled this from below:

I was extremely happy this week to find some Maori speakers. So for all of you still on the hunt for some speakers, discord is amazing.
