In this episode of Whakamāori, the team take on the legendary voice of nature, Sir David Attenborough, and translate some of his most iconic narrations into te reo Māori.
From sweeping savannahs to deep-sea wonders, his words have shaped how millions understand the natural world. But how does that same we and precision sound in te reo?
The panel—Chey Milne, Tākuta Anaha Hiini, & Piripi Winiata—explore the challenge of translating scientific terms, poetic imagery, and that classic Attenborough tone—while keeping the reo clear, vivid, and alive.
Whether you're a nature doco fan or just keen to grow your science and environment vocab in te reo, this one's a journey worth tuning in for.
