Te Whakawhiti Tikanga ā-Iwi a te Māori me te Wīwī ki te Whakanui i Te Reo Māori

Tēnā tātou, Bonjour!

Ka nui te manawarū o Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori kia kite i te whaihua o te kaupapa e kīia nei ko Te Kupu o te Wiki, 2014, me te aha, kua haere ake tētahi ope kōrero Wīwī hei manuhiri māna, mō te kupu whakamutunga o te wiki, arā, te kupu ‘Wīwī’.

Ka noho tēnei whakakotahitanga hei whakamutu ake i ngā mahi hāpai i te 50 kupu i roto i te 50 wiki, te kati ake i te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2014, me te noho takatū ki Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2015, ka tīmata nei at te 27 o Hōngongoi 2015.

Ka whakakotahi ētahi mema o te hapori kōrero Wīwī o Te Whanga-nui-a-Tara, ngā kaimahi o Te Kāinga Māngai Kāwanatanga o Wīwī me Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori, ki te whakawhiti tikanga ā-iwi ā te Rāmere e tū mai nei, ki te whakanui i te kupu Wīwī me te whakaroaro anō ki ngā mahi whakarauora reo.

Ko tā te whakamutu ake i te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2014, he tohu anō i te tīmatanga o te kaupapa mō te 2015, Te Rerenga Kōrero o te Wiki, e hāpaingia ai ētahi kīanga e 50 i roto i te 50 wiki.

Nō reira nau mai haere ake rā me Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori ki Karaka Café i te Wharewaka, ā te Rāmere, te 17 o Hōngongoi ā te 11.30 i te ata ki te whakawhiti tikanga tahi.
