Kia ora e hoa mā,
If you're writing assignments in te reo Māori and are using APA 7th style referencing, we now have a set of translations available that you can use for APA referencing and citation terminology. This means you will be able to write your in-text citations and references in te reo Māori, rather than reverting to English. Ka mau te wehi!
This is a trial of APA in te reo Māori. The current translations (in the Word doc below) have been decided on during a wānanga process by a group of pūkenga reo from UC. We welcome your whakaaro and feedback for changes, alternate translation suggestions, or anything on this kaupapa.
I am here for one-on-one guidance on using APA in te reo Māori - please do contact me for support. Ngā mihi, Lisa.
