Re: Mixing English and te reo Māori. I am pleased to see that Jackie and Neil Stewart’s letter has brought about discussion about the mixing of our languages. I submitted a similar letter to a local paper several months ago, which was not published, for what I thought were obvious reasons.
Can we now take reverse action and insert English words into te reo? Stand back and wait for the reaction!
