Today I found these words lists on the Te Kupu o te Rā webpage.

My current favourite:

Food Time - Connect kupu for food with “Homai ki te…” and you can start using Te Reo Māori at the dinner table!

Locative nouns - It turns out these are really important. A handy list to get to grips with early on.

Idiomatic phrases group 1 and Idiomatic phrases group 2 - Want to level up your naturalness? Learn the turns of phrase.

I’m thinking about making Anki flashcard decks for these lists…

The Reo Project | Day 131

Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

I believe that place matters.

Our connection to whatever little corner of the planet we find ourselves in, or choose to place ourselves on, matters.

I'm relentlessly curious and continually learning.

My interests are scattered across topics including property, strategy, acoustics, psychology, theology, systems theory, quantum physics and leadership. I read, listen, watch, and learn about whatever grabs my attention in the moment.

This is a learning experiment.

I come here to try to make sense of something I’ve come across, by writing about it.

I’m immersing myself in a new language.

I’m learning to speak Te Reo Māori, the language of the indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand and one of our official languages. After spending 2020 studying, I’m figuring out how to keep the journey going outside the classroom.

You’re welcome to follow along.
