Cool video! As a Kiwi I really enjoyed it. However, "Wh" in most Maori names here are pronounced "F" and the following a becomes more of an o. So in the case of Whangamomona it would be pronounced Fonga-momona. It's confusing and many kiwis get it wrong too!
@Harlief
@Harlief 7 лет назад
Once you know the consonants, wh = f, and ng being used at the beginning of words; it's pretty simple. The vowels (a: ah, e: eh, i: ee, o: awe, u: ew) are all the same length unless they are marked as long (ā, ē, ī, o, ū).

The name Whangamomona translates from two words, literally meaning 'fat valley' - Whanga meaning 'valley' and momona meaning 'fat'. It gets its name from the bountiful number of birds that lived in the forests prior to European settlement in the area. The Māori would be able to quickly fill up their bags and feed the birds to the families in their tribe, or Pā.

The pronunciation Manawatu-Wanganui was quite a bit off but u were close with Taranaki, and I live in PN the capital of M-W and I have never heard anyone call us Man-Wangers, though i have never been to Whangamomona
@mitchellbigwood3981
@mitchellbigwood3981 7 лет назад
Also while Manawatu-Wanganui is one region they r quite separate and have very different rugby teams, Manawatu currently has the mighty Turbos and Wanganui has the Butchers, so its not the turbos they hated like u showed but Wanganui.
@mitchellbigwood3981
@mitchellbigwood3981 7 лет назад
It flows more then how u were saying, u were breaking the syllables up as u said the word, though I am european kiwi and thus don't pronounce it the maori way as all maori names have slightly been changed over time, but it is said more like Munawa-too, with the Munawa said fast until the t hits and then moves into a longer oo or u sound connecting to the t. Though I am no expert. And I am not even going to try with Wanganui as the pronunciation has tons of things in there that muck me up and I don't wish to offend people over the missing H which changes the whole pronunciation completely.
@mitchellbigwood3981
@mitchellbigwood3981 7 лет назад
Though with Whangamomona the Wh should sound like an F not a w, this is also what i was talking about with the missing H in Wanganui

New Zealand is named after my micronation.Zealand. When New Zealand was discoverd,someone that was from my micronation was shiprecked there and thus is where the name New Zealand comes from. (Actually no I named my nation after New Zealand because there is no old Zealand) And not that place in Denmark that in english its zealand but in danish its something like sœland so it doesnt count. And the place in The Netherlands called Zeeland not Zealand (My micronation is surrounded by Ireland.Blanchardstown to be exact)
