He ahe koe i kore ai e kai? He aha ia e kore nei e kai? He aha au e kore ai e kai? Hei tukatuka ake anō i te tau hōu mahi ka kotahi atu tātou ki te Kupu Kupu Kupu me tō tātou mātanga reo ara ko Jared Boon me kī ko Mc Grammar. Ka āta matapakihia e mātou ngā rerenga kua whakahuatia ake i mua nā. Why didn't you eat? Why isn't he eating? Why won't I eat? To kickoff the working year we head straight into Kupu Kupu Kupu with linguistic expert Jarred Boon, AKA "MC Grammar",  taking a close look at the aforementioned structures.

In our last episode for what has been rather strange and challenging year, we talk about the shifting Tikanga around Christmas, and have a look back at some of our favourite moments from the year.

Te Wānanga o Aotearoa and the entire Taringa crew would like to thank everyone for their support, and wish everyone a very safe and happy festive season.

We give examples of some errors that can happen when writing or reciting karakia, and incorrect tikanga practices around the building & opening of Whare. We then discuss the effects that these mistakes can have on the intentions of important kaupapa.

It's a real mixed bag in this ep as we answer a reo question about the use of "mo" and "kimi", offer some thoughts on tikanga around whānuangatanga in the current covid climate, and we also discuss Taniwhā gender - inspired by Story the from Ep 218.

Diving back into the precious ‘Ngā Taonga’ archives, this time we are at the NZ Polynesian Festival in Lower Hutt in February, 1979.

Listen along as we kōrero in depth about a few of the items that were performed at the event.

Featuring the traditional story which was turned into an award winning childrens book, we are fortunate to have author Ben Ngaia join us to speak about the significance of this story and his work writing the book.

Jarred Boon (aka MC Grammar) is back for another schooling session on "ai". We review instances covered in Ep 214, (habitual action, dependent actions, subsequent action clauses), and go in depth on using the particle "ai" in a range of questioning contexts.

Ka tau mai a Dr Enoka Murphy ki te pae kōrero i tēnei puni o Iwi o te Wiki ki te whakahuahua i ngā kōrero motuhake mō Ngāti Manawa.

Ka hoki mai anō te takitoru o Taringa ki te āta matapakihia tēnei kaupapa te whati me te hapa me kī hei tō te tirohanga Māori i roto i ngā whakaritenga Māori pēnei i te whaikōrero me ētahu atu tūwhai āhuaranga. The Taringa trio return to discuss this topic of errors and falters in according per se to the Māori perspective within Māori contexts such as formal oration and other aspects.

Te Reo expert Jarred Boon joins us to talk about the use of the complex particle "ai". Ka kōrerotia hoki tētahi kīwaha i kōrerotia ai e tana kuia i a rāua e tohe ana. E mārama ai ki tēnei momo pūhono me whai wheako kia rongo ai koe ki ana whakamahinga huhua. Whakarongo mai.

A muri ake i tētahi paku whakatā, ka hoki mai anō te wāhanga o Ngā Taonga. Ka hoki ki mua ki 1972 ki te Whetiwara Poronīhia tuatahi ki te whakarongo ki te āhua o te kapahaka o te wā me te kite i ngā kākano i whakatōngia i aua tau kua hua mai ai i ēnei tau. After a short hiatus, Ngā Taonga returns to our regularly scheduled programming. We go back in time to 1972 to the first Polynesian Festival to listen to the style of kapahaka of the time and to witness the seeds planted then that have since borne fruit in today.
