Te Reo Maori
Hello Bloggers and everyone else. Today I will be telling you some Maori words that come from the bathroom.
Heketua - Toilet
Wharepaku - Room with a separate toilet (not the actual toilet)
Hirere - Shower
Tapu - Bath
Wheru - Toilet paper
Whakaata - Mirror
Tauera - Towel
Korere wai - Tap/Faucet
Puoto - Sink/Basin
Hopi - soap
Here are some sentences
1. Titiro ki te whakaata = Look at the mirror.
2. Tukua te wai = Flush the toilet (or flush with water)
3. Horoia o ringaringa = Wash your hands
