Maori Names

For Maori, our activity was translating Maori names into English. 

Some Maori names sounded very similar to english names. Some of the names that were new to us were: Hera which means Sarah, and Pati which means Patricia. The rest of the names were also new to us.

The Maori alphabet doesn't have all the letters that the english alphabet does. For example, J and S are turned into H.

The activities were educational because I learned about some things about the Maori alphabet and that they don't have all the same letters as the english alphabet.
