Explanatory notes
1
The basic principles underpinning tikanga are common, but while there are some
constants, the details of performance of tikanga, and their explanation, may differ.
These differences may be at a rohe, iwi, hapū, whānau, or marae level. The context
of the learning should include the tikanga of the local mana whenua (if capable), but
learning others’ tikanga is also encouraged. This is in order to enrich and enhance
understanding of tikanga, and the associated reo.
