Maori Unpacked, 3, Naming words

3

So what do we do next with this unpacking business?


Let's carry on with a naming word.


te tai,
the beach

or te tangata
the person

There, we've unpacked a noun!

Two nouns in fact!

tai, beach
and
tangata, person

How many nouns do you know in Maori?
Make a list of ten or however many you know- at least two now- and
put them in the Noun Box!

Or should we draw pictures of them with titles and hang them on the wall?

Or take the pictures and the titles and make mobiles?

Or just make a space in a village of the mind for the Noun Family?
