Pepeha

The pepeha is the way to introduce yourself in Maori.

Here is an example of a pepeha

Ko Mauao te Maunga 
Ko Wairoa te Awa 
Ko Takitimu te Waka 
Ko Ngati Ranginui te Iwi 
Ko Ngati Kahu te Hapu 
Ko Wairoa te Marae 
Ko Kahu tapu te Whare nui 
Ko Te hoata te Whare kai  
Ko Taumatawhio te Urupa 
Ko Sasha taku ingoa
