Maori Unpacked, 35, The Perfect, Kua
35
The Perfect, Kua
But what if its all so very Over, Rover?
Then you use kua
Kua haere ia.
He has gone
Its perfectly over, kua is the perfect tense
Kua waiho mokemoke au.
I am left lonely.
Well we'd better move on then!
But before we go let's set up a Perfect Box and put Kua in it.
Put a Kua sign on the door so that after you have shut the door you can say,
Kua kati te kuaha, The door is closed.
Make a Mobile with Kua on it and every time you pass beneath it think of something that you are SO very Over and make up a sentence beginning with Kua..
