How do you say is in Maori?

There isn't a direct translation of "is" in Maori, as the language structure is different.

Instead, the meaning of "is" is conveyed through context and the use of verbs and particles. Here are some examples:

* "He is a student" - "Ko ia he ākonga" (literally, "He (is) a student").

* "The book is on the table" - "Kei runga i te tepu te pukapuka" (literally, "On the table (is) the book").

* "It is hot" - "Wera ana" (literally, "It (is) hot").

The key is to use the appropriate verb or particle based on the specific situation.
