I ēnei rā, ko te nuinga o ngā pakeke e kōrero Māori ana, he reo rua Māori.

Hei tautoko ake i tēnei, anei ngā kupu nā Olsen-Reeder (2017) i tīpakohia e ia i ngā rangahau a Selby (2006) rātou ko Christensen (2001), ko Te Huia (2013), arā, “Kotahi tonu pea te taniwha hiku roa e rere ai te mauri o te reo rua Māori, arā ia ko te whakamā”
