Kei hea? Learning how to ask and say where things are in Te Reo Māori

As my flashcard plugin doesn’t recognize macrons I’ve doubled the stressed vowels to help with the correct pronunciation.  Remember to just hold the original sound with doubled vowels, putting the stress on that syllable but don’t change the sound of the vowel like you would in English.
