Whaanga, Hēmi2026-03-192026-03-192007-091175-3099https://hdl.handle.net/10289/18092I report here on a part of a research project involving the investigation of a range of authentic Māori texts in terms of two types of meaning relation - those that operate within propositions (referred to here as 'intra-propositional relations'), and those that link propositions or groups of propositions (referred to here as 'inter-propositional relations'). In focus here is the second of these types, that is, inter-propositional relations, and in particular, the ways in which they are signalled in te reo Māori. The implications of the findings for the teaching and learning of te reo Māori are also discussed.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Māori manuscriptsWritten MāoriSemantics (Philosophy)Foreign language educationSecond language acquisitionGrammarComparative grammar educationTuhinga reo MāoriWetereoTe reo MāoriMāori linguisticsRauemi reo MāoriWhakaako reo MāoriJournal Article10.15663/K10.141423021-5668
