E ngā taringa areare o te motu tēnā huri mai anō ki ngā patapatai o te wā. This week we answer your questions; koha, merchandising of kōrero tuku iho and the aversion Paraone has for reptilian footwear.

The grammar whizz, Jarred Boon, AKA "MC Grammar" is back again. Today's discussion is all about reo Ōkawa, or formal language. Whakarongo mai!

This week our hosts discuss the history and importance of the pōtae as it has been used in a range of contexts.

E ngā kāwai nui, e ngā kāwai roa, e ngā mana o te kī o tua whakarere tēnā koutou katoa. Kua aua atu te wā – It has been sometime, but Taringa is back with our first episode of the year. Today we talk about te mana o te kupu. Whakarongo mai.

Kua tata ngā pō o ngā pōtiki a Rehua. Tēnā tātou i tā tātou puni whakamutunga o te tau Pākehā. MC Grammar joins Paraone, Erica, and Te Puaheiri in this final episode of 2023 to discuss kupu related to this time of the year. We explore expressing gratitude for received gifts and, in true Taringa fashion, delve into considerations for those not with us during this season. Thanks for 'streaming in' this year; we'll be on a longer break, returning in February with more iana, kōrero, and wānanga. Kia tau ngā manaakitanga ki a tātou i ēnei wiki nei – kia haumaru, kia koa, kia manawanui. Tēnā tātou katoa.

In this episode, we are joined once again by the esteemed Korohere Ngāpō who has returned to share some of his knowledge and wisdom around the use of rākau in whaikōrero and other contexts. Check out Episode 34 to learn more about Korohere and te iwi Marutuahu.

In this final instalment of Patapatai for 2023, Snowy and Erica discuss the use of waiata Māori in different contexts, the pursuit of knowledge and truth through a traditional Māori lens, and the application of cultural safety in the workplace.

MC Grammar, Erica and Kahu wānanga about how te reo Māori is influenced by the languages and cultures of Te Moana-nui-a-kiwa - the Pacific. Comparing Pacific languages such as Hawaiian, Cook Islands, Samoan and Niuean with te reo Māori, they also discuss what makes te reo Māori unique.
