Te Mārama ki ngā Pūnaha me te Taiao
Ko te pūnaha he mea, he rōpū mea rānei e akohia ana. Ko ētahi atu mea o te ao whānui e kiia ana ko te taiao. I te nuinga o te wā, ka wehea te pūnaha mai i tōna taiao e tētahi "wehewehe/whakawhāiti/wehewehe".
Hei tauira, me kī tātou e hiahia ana tātou ki te tirotiro i te wai i roto i te termos. Ko te wai i roto i te termos te pūnaha, ko te hau me ētahi atu mea i waho o te termos te taiao. Ko ngā pakitara o te termos, ko te karāhe i roto me te kirihou i waho, he wehewehe. Ko te termos wai tētahi tauira.
He maha ngā momo pūnaha, arā, he pūnaha tuwhera, he pūnaha kati. Ko te pūnaha tuwhera he pūnaha e āhei ai te whakawhitiwhiti matū me te pūngao i waenga i te pūnaha me tōna taiao. Ko ngā tauira o ngā pūnaha tuwhera ko ngā tipu, ngā kararehe, me ētahi atu. Ko te tikanga, ka mimitihia e ngā tipu te wai me te hauhā waro mai i te taiao (he whakawhitiwhiti matū). Me hiahia hoki ngā tipu ki te wera mai i te rā (he whakawhitiwhiti pūngao). E kiia ana hoki te tangata he pūnaha tuwhera.
Ko te pūnaha kati he pūnaha e kore e whakaae kia whakawhitiwhiti rauemi i waenga i te pūnaha me tōna taiao. Ka kiia he pūnaha kati he motuhake mēnā kāore he huarahi mō te whakawhitiwhiti pūngao i waenga i te pūnaha me tōna taiao. Ka kiia he pūnaha kati kāore i te motuhake mēnā ka taea te whakawhitiwhiti pūngao i waenga i te pūnaha me tōna taiao. Ko tētahi tauira o te pūnaha kati motuhake ko te pounamu termos me te wai wera. Ko ngā pakitara o roto o te pounamu termos he mea hanga i te nuinga o te wā ki te rauemi ārai wera. Ko te mea pono, he maha ngā pūnaha wehe hangai kāore i te tino pai, ā, ka taea te whakawhitiwhiti pūngao, ahakoa he iti noa iho.
