This standard asks you to explore and understand how Māori language works—specifically the patterns and conventions that shape how language is used in different contexts. You need to identify these patterns, explain how they apply to real situations, and explore alternative ways to express similar meanings. It's about looking closely at how the structure of te reo Māori differs from English and works in different contexts.
