The plural is incorrect

[edit]

In Māori terms, including when they are loaned to English, the plural is the same as the singular form. Distinction is made through context in English, and in Māori it is made by using the plural article 'ngā' as opposed to the singular article 'te' or 'he'.

This isn't describing the Māori term, but the English term. This is evident from the heading "English". — SURJECTION / T / C / L / 06:24, 18 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
