1- Dua                          6 - Ono 

2- Rua                             7- Vitu 

3 -. Tolu                        8 - Walu

4- Va.                           9 - Ciwa

The phrase of the day is something you can say to people when you annoyed it is 
"Na cava, Iko lenqa"?
Translation "what, are you ok?
C is pronounced tha and a is pronounced gaa

  1. Bula Karolina. This was awesome. your video will really help people know how to pronounce these words. Some of these words look similar to numbers in te reo Māori. Can you work out which ones are similar and what the differences are?

  2. Hi Phil
    Ono is the same, Tolu is nearly the same we just add a L so basically your R's are our L's
