What does chur mean in maori?

"Chur" is not a word in Māori. It's a slang term that originated in New Zealand and is often used in a similar way to "Cheers" in English.

It's generally used to express:

* Acknowledgement: "Chur" can be used as a quick acknowledgement of something, similar to "Okay" or "Right".

* Gratitude: It can also be used as a way to say "Thank you".

* Agreement: Sometimes it's used to express agreement or understanding.

While "chur" is widely used in New Zealand, it's not considered formal Māori language. It's more of a colloquialism.
