is it pronounced like an (American) English speaker would pronounce those syllables? KEE-ah OR-ah? do I need to do anything specific with the R?
I’m just gonna direct you to the Māori dictionary and its example, this radio interview on Māori pronunciation, and this page of common greetings with recordings of their pronunciation, but I would write it as something like “kyaAWErah”. “R” in Māori is…IDK the technical linguistic terms, but sort of halfway to a “l” sound, much like in Japanese. It’s distinctly different from most English versions of “r”.
(I mean, nobody’s gonna misunderstand you if you say “KEE-ah OR-ah”, but you will 100% sound like an American/Australian/older or not trying very hard Pākehā.)
…and you looked at me, like no one ever had.
My ability to proofread increases by 1000% after I hit “Submit”.
this is often because when you’ve submitted something (like fanfiction to ao3) it will be in a different font, size and framing than in your word processor. The text will look different in the new environment so your brain stops skipping what looks familiar (like a typo that has been there since the beginning).
So, tip: revise your work in a different font and size. I guarantee you’ll catch more typos and mistakes than otherwise.
For all my writers (ones I follow and the ones that thankfully follow me)
Thank god it isn’t just me. Definitely going to have to do this!

When you’re writing and you can clearly see in your mind the exact expression a character is wearing or hear the exact nonverbal sound they are making, but completely fail at coming up with a way to explain it.
