Google Maori (Search in Google Groups)
Kia ora whanau, we thought to make our discussion more open and accessible that we create this Google Discussion Group,
this will help archive our korero and assist others who come on board getting up to speed on our progress toward providing Google in te Reo Maori.
Our vision is to see Maori continue to be represented in the digital world,
allowing both current and future generations to feel affirmed and included in these multiple digital spaces.
Google Maori is one more step on that journey. Kia ora!
Please leave your thoughts and ideas, korero mai!!

Can we make a deal? If you help me to find beta testers, then I'll do what I can to get Google finished.

Tena ano tatou katoa,
katahi ano au ka mahi i te po katoa nei ki te whakatere ake i te patopatohanga ake o taku aromatawai.
Kua tata oti inaianei te patopatohanga no reira e watea ana au ki te awhina inaianei.
Ka hoki aku mahara ki tetehi himene no taku hahi. Ko Kia Kaha ki te Awhina mai tona ingoa. Waiatahia ai tenei himene hei whakatenatena i te huinga ki te awhina tetehi ki tetehi.
E whakahuatia ake ana e au te whiti tuatahi me te korihi e penei ana -
E matenuitia ana he tino tangata! E kore e wehi noa ki te mahi taumaha!
Kia kaha ki te awhina mai (Haere mai!)
Ki nga mahi nei i takoto ai (Haere mai!)
He tino he te mangere kia kaha tonu mai!
I just pulled an all nighter to speed up my assignment. I've nearly finished typing up it up which means I am free to assist.
My mind remembers a hymn from my church. It is called "Give it All You've Got to Help". This hymn was usually sung to help encourage members to assist one another.
I'll quote the first verse and chorus which goes like this -
Able peopled are desperately needed,
Who are not afraid of heavy labour,
Give it all you've got to help(Come!)
With everything that needs to be done here(Come!)
It is very wrong to be lazy, always keep on striving!

E hoa, kei a koe mo te korero Maori. Kaua e awangawanga! Pai ake koe i ahau.
