What are all the maori words for cheese?
There isn't a single, widely accepted Māori word for "cheese." It's likely that cheese was introduced to Māori culture relatively recently, and there wasn't a need for a specific word for it before that.
However, here are some ways you might describe cheese in Māori:
* Hīnihi: This word literally means "cream" or "curd," and could be used to refer to cheese, especially soft cheeses.
* Tīmi: This word means "cream" or "dairy product." It's a more general term, but could encompass cheese.
* Kīmi: This is a transliteration of the English word "cream" and is commonly used in modern Māori.
* Hīnihi kāki: This phrase translates to "cream cheese," but could be used to describe other cheese varieties too.
* Cīti: This is the most common way to refer to cheese in modern Māori, simply a transliteration of the English word "cheese."
Ultimately, the best word to use depends on the specific context and the type of cheese you're referring to. You could also use descriptive terms like "hīnihi kōpara" (hard cheese) or "hīnihi māngere" (soft cheese).
