kāore he tikanga
1. there's no need, it's not necessary, there's no point.
Ka mea mai ngā tuākana, “E tama! Kātahi anō te mahi pōrearea ki tō mahi, kāore koe e haere mārire, kāore he tikanga i a mātou o tāu haere.” (JPS 1929:20). / His elder brothers remarked, “Heavens! What a lot of fuss about your project, you shouldn't go and there's no point in us going on your journey.”
