Prepositions of place Exercises For Maori Grammar

Prepositions of place, or “tūwāhi”, in Maori grammar are words used to describe spatial relationships. This means they refer to where something or someone is positioned in relation to something or someone else. Typically, Maori prepositions of place include words such as “i” (at), “ki” (to), “kei” (at), “mai i” (from), and so on. These words are not only used to describe physical location but also used abstractly to describe conceptual or metaphorical spaces. Understanding these prepositions is key to truly grasping the structure and beauty of the Maori language.
