WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

By Keila

Questions:	(Tangi hanga) Google Meaning: The Tangihanga is the enduring of Māori ceremony for mourning someone who has died. It is commonly called a tangi, which also means to weep, and to sing a dirge (a lament for the dead). My Understanding: My understanding of Tangi hanga is to mourn or cry for the death of a loved one.	(Kawemate) Google Meaning: Mourning ceremony at another marae subsequent to the tangihanga and burial - relatives of the deceased, especially someone of importance, visit as a group the marae of communities. The kawemate is often at the community's request. My Understanding: My Understanding of kawemate is the non- burial part of the tangi.
