Today for Maori we were learning about The Māori Language, vowels, consonants. The Māori alphabet is made up with eight consonants, five vowels and two digraphs. In Māori when there is a tohu tu (macron, hat) you have to drag the word like ngaaa. There is also a song that relates to Orokati Consonants (the letters that aren't in the vowels).
Example: keke with no macrons means cake, and kēkē with macrons mean armpit.
Here is the lyrics (not really lyrics).
