2. (noun) stress, trauma, hassle.
I whakatauhia anō hoki me waiho ko te tau 1995 hei tau whakanui i te reo Māori - tōna ora, tōna mau, tōna kōrerotia tonutia ahakoa e hia kē tāmitanga - ā, hei whakaoho anō hoki i a Māori rāua ko Pākehā kia kaha ake te aro mai (HM 4/1997:3). / It was also decided that 1995 should be the year to celebrate the Māori language - its health, its retention, its being still spoken despite the many stresses - and to awaken Māori and Pākehā to pay more attention to it.
