What does kei te pehea koe means?

"Kei te pehea koe?" is a Māori phrase that means "How are you?"

It's a very common and polite greeting in Māori culture.

Here's a breakdown of the phrase:

* Kei te: Means "is" or "are"

* Pehea: Means "how"

* Koe: Means "you"

So, literally, it translates to "How is you?" but it's best understood as simply "How are you?"
