@aoinifh It’s why I refuse to call the town “Cromwell” in Ōtākau. Would much rather call it Tīrau with respect for Tāngata Whenua anyway. Same as Doire for Tuaisceart Éireann. Words hold power and reclaiming indigeneity through respective Reo is equally important!

@freddythornton_ I had my 1st vaccination appointment booked in twice but was sick for both, not the vibes

A few more highlight moments from the #DawnRaidsApology earlier, where PM @jacindaardern made a heartfelt apology to Pasifika people for injustices of the Dawn Raids era and announced:
$2.1M in scholarships & $1M for training courses for Pasifika communities + more

What historic news to wake up to! 🎉

Yesterday we formalised the establishment of diplomatic relations between Ireland and Tonga 🇹🇴 #IslandNations

Incredibly based

Fun fact: The NZ Women's hockey team communicate in Te Reo during their games so no one can understand them #NZvsArg

We’re urging people to keep their dogs under control after the senseless death of a kiwi on conservation land in Taranaki: https://t.co/6Ri7780RCQ

@IrelandinNZ Kia ora! So I have emailed them as you have directed and have not received a reply in two days. I noticed that the application deadline is due on August 1st and just want to make sure that I have done everything I could have for eligibility :)

A reminder to everyone who is reclaiming their ancestral language to be easy on yourself. It’s not a matter of being ‘smart’ or ‘talented’. I could speak pretty fluent Mandarin in six months and yet I have spent almost the last 10 years in pursuit of my own language, te reo Māori

@LillianFata Absolute disgraceful

[Selwyn Gamble @Talos_000]

@MauiBrennan Well put it this way, you’ll be a better Spanish speaker for the immersion bwahaha

[Selwyn Gamble @Talos_000]

@MauiBrennan Interesting what situation has made you need to speak Spanish? Or are you just learning?

[Ulu Afaese @TheUluNation]

Agreed. Always refreshing watching Champions League matches in France: no alcohol branding on sports kits.
