What is the Maori term for white man?

The most common Māori term for "white man" is Pākehā.

It's important to note that:

* Pākehā is not a derogatory term. It's generally used neutrally, similar to how "European" or "Caucasian" are used in other contexts.

* There are other terms used, but they are often considered outdated or offensive.

* Using "Pākehā" respectfully is key.

It's always a good idea to learn more about the nuances of language and cultural sensitivities when referring to different ethnic groups.
