WORD PUZZLE
A new word puzzle is being introduced in this issue of Tu Tangata to stimulate readers. It’s the brainchild of S. Lassey of Tikipunga, Whangarei.
How it works: Each puzzle contains a group of H 6 related English/Maori words and is divided into letter squares. Hidden in these letter squares are 8 English and 8 Maori words. The clues for the hidden words are given to the right of the puzzle. Enter the equivalent English or Maori word according to word length and then find that hidden word in the puzzle box. The word may be placed in any straight line (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) and in a forward or reverse direction.
An example of the way the puzzle works is the title of each puzzle, e.g. Apparel/Puweru.
MAORI Hate Tokena Maro Whitiki Koti Tatua Kokiri Hiripa
