Kupu Mahi Wheako
Ka whakaatu ngā kupu mahi wheako i te wheako i te kitenga-ā-kanohi rānei:
Kei te hiahia au ki ēra hū.
I want those shoes.
Kei te aroha au ki a ia.
I love him.
Te nuinga o te wā ka tāpiritia te 'ki' ki te Kupu mahi wheako. E rua ngā wā kāore i te pēnei: ka tāpiritia te 'i' ki
kite, ā, ka tāpiritia te 'i' me te 'ki' ki
rongo:
I kite au i a ia.
I saw him.
Kei te rongo au i tētahi manu.
I hear a bird.
Ka taea ngā kupu mahi wheako te whakahāngū:
I arohaina ia e au.
He was loved by me.
