Maori Language Week|Te Wiki o te Reo Maori

Māori Language Week has been celebrated for over 30 years, so join in 2009.
The Māori Language Week theme for 2009 is "Te Reo i te Hapori - Māori Language in the Community."
Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 27 Hōngongoi - 2 Here-turi-kōkā 2009 Māori Language Week 27 July - 2 August 2009

The collage above is from the Korero Maori site Pakihi - For Businesses which has some really useful information for businesses:

* How to find a translator
* Checklist for assessing your business reo
* Ideas for using Te Reo Maori in your business
* Examples and case studies from businesses which use Te Reo.

The website is:

In the ELIS catalogue we have begun to use Maori subject headings:
Umanga = business
Tauhokohoko = trade

These headings are from Ngā Ūpoko Tukutuku - the thesaurus used by the National Library of New Zealand.
