Te whanau o te maungarongo hikoi: Maori practice in motion (3 July 2006 to 9 July 2006)
What you are about to read is, in the main, a narrative. This narrative is designed to do two things. On one level it simply provides an explanation of how Puti and John Snowden used the funding received for this project. This document is therefore a demonstration of their accountability for the monies received. On another, far deeper, level this document operates to demonstrate to the reader the real power of the traditional concepts of whanaungatanga, whakapapa, tikanga, wairua, and manaakitanga. The adults, youths and elders who embarked on this journey had experiences that are not easily explained in written form. This document must try to achieve this task, and only a narrative that attempts to show these traditional concepts in action can do it
Do females pay more compliments than males? A sociolinguistic study of compliment usage in Malta
Politeness is an important characteristic in every day conversations. We all strive to be polite so as to depict a good image of ourselves and to be liked by others. According to Brown and Levinson (1987) persons can either be positively or negatively polite. This study analyses aspects of positive politeness through the use of compliments paid by the Maltese in different settings. The data for this study was obtained through an ethnographic approach in which a corpus of naturally occurring compliments paid to individuals in different contexts was collected.peer-reviewe
