LI: To create a map and mark maori places that have an english meaning behind it.
The above google maps is a collaborative work of Lukah, Ong and me for Maori Language Week. This is our third task and we first searched about maori places and then found their meanings. We also tried to link the english meaning to the place. The place I found most interesting was Papakura as it means red earth. It is named because the soil is very rich in nutrients which gives it a red color. We have found many such places which has a link to their english meanings which made it very amazing for us. We would love to complete many such tasks that increases our knowledge on this topic.
