FAQ
The Māori-language spelling ⟨Māori⟩ (with a macron) has become common in New Zealand English in recent years, particularly in Māori-specific cultural contexts, although the traditional macron-less English spelling is still sometimes seen in general media and government use.
A macron is a line above a vowel to indicate that it should be spoken as a long vowel: ā, ē, ī, ō, ū, Ā, Ē, Ī, Ō and Ū. The Māori word for macron is tohutō (or pōtae - hat).
A macron is a straight line over a vowel (ā, ē, ī, etc.) which shows that the vowel in question is long, as opposed to short. Short vowels are indicated instead by a half circle mark called a breve (ă, ĕ, ĭ, etc.).
Typing a macron on a computer To type a macron with the Māori keyboard, press the tilde key (~) then type a vowel. This works for both Windows and Mac computers.
A symbol (ˉ) written or printed above a vowel to show that it is pronounced with a long sound: "Maori" should be written with a macron on the "a." The five vowels come in long and short forms; the long form is sometimes signified in print by a macron (a flat bar) above the letter.
The importance of tohutō (macrons) in reo Māori A macron is a line that appears over Māori vowels, such as a, e, i, o, u. Why is it really important? It means that you can lengthen the vowel sound. The other reason is you can change the meaning of the word entirely.
For example, to get an ā: Switch your keyboard to US Extended. Type ⌥a+a (i.e. press and hold the option key, press a while still holding the option key) release the option key and the a key, then type a again.
Pressing the right Alt key (often marked AltGr ) before a vowel places a macron above it. Hold down the right Alt ( AltGr ) key. While still holding down on the right Alt key, press the a key on your keyboard. Release all keys. Now the next vowel you type in will have a macron placed above it.
Go to the Keyboard settings in System preferences. Select Input Sources then the plus button to add a new keyboard. Search for the Māori keyboard by scrolling down or using the search box, select it then select Add. Make sure you have the Show Input menu in menu bar ticked.
