  • Whakawhanaungatanga A-Reo
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ResearchArchive at Victoria University of Wellington WHAKAWHANAUNGATANGA A-REO: AN INDIGENOUS GROUNDED THEORY FOR THE REVITALIZATION OF MĀORI LANGUAGE SPEECH COMMUNITIES BY EWAN JAMES POHE A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington (2012) Abstract This study focuses on the role of adult Māori language acquisition in the revitalization of the Māori language. Māori language transmission is now primarily dependent on transmission through educational institutions. The objective of Māori language revitalization is to re-establish intergenerational language transmission. Language shift means that intergenerational language transmission of the Māori language has effectively ceased in Māori homes and communities. This means Māori once again becomes the primary language spoken in the home, neighbourhood and community domains. This is a report of a grounded study of an adult cohort of novice language learners. A group of mainly Māori who joined a Te Ataarangi total immersion programme where they were immersed in both the Māori language and the culture over a three year period. I was a participant observer of the cohort and collected data in the form of field notes and interviews on the experiences of its members. Following classical Grounded Theory Methodology (GTM) (Glaser 2002), I used constant comparative analysis of incidents to iteratively analyse the data and evolve the conceptual framework. The central finding of this study is the process of whakawhanaungatanga a-reo. I found that the shared objective in acquiring the Māori language for the cohort was to be able to use the language appropriately in ordinary communicative situations.
