I tukua mai taua kōrero e tētahi mīhini i te whenua o te Wīwī, whakawhiti mai i te moana, ka hopukia atu e te mīhini i Ingarangi. Ka kino te haere a te Pākehā! (HKW 1/4/1899:8). / That story was sent from France, across the ocean and received by a machine in England. The Pākehā are amazing!
Ka pā te pōhiri a te kōkō nei, kai te rarangi tuatahi o te pānui nei, kātahi ka kī te waha o te tangata whenua ki te pōhiri, ka kino tā rātau nei haere (TPH 31/7/1900:5). / When the welcome call of this sweet voice went out, in the first line of this call, then the host began the welcome haka, and it was awesome.
