Could you give some context to the linked image please? I'm intrigued
It's the kind of thing they use in school in New Zealand (Aotearoa) to teach kids the basics of Te Reo Maori pronunciation. Here's a video with a lesson in pronunciation.
Here's a similar resource used to teach colours.
If you want to hear some spoken Te Reo here's a short video which tells the story of the great hero Maui taming the sun.
Thanks a lot! Super cool stuff, I'll be learning a bit of Maori, then.
You're welcome!
If you can track it down there's a 2002 movie called Whale Rider which is a good watch and features some Te Reo as well as portraying some other aspects of traditional Maori culture.
