I moe ia, pēnei tonu i a Tamahae nei.
He was asleep, just like Tamae here.Me pēnei.
(You should do it) like this.Ki te ngaro te reo, ka ngaro tāua pērā i te moa.
If the language is lost, we are lost like that of the large extinct moa bird.Kei te mau hū au pērā i a ia.
I am wearing shoes like her.Kei te moe tonu pea, pērā i tō rāua pāpā.
They are probably still sleeping, just like their father.Kei te mau hū au pērā i a Michael Jordan.
I am wearing shoes like Michael Jordan.E, kāti te kōrero pēnā mō taku mokopuna!
Hey, stop talking like that about my grandchild!Kei te pērā tonu au.
I'm unchanged.Kei te pērā tonu hoki a muri i a ia.
Those behind him were doing the same.He pēnei tonu au ki te mahi.
I am always working (lit: "I always work like this").Kei te pōturi pēnā me te ngeru.
Slow like a cat.Mahia kia pēnei.
Do it like this.Me wiri ō ringa pēnei.
You should quiver your hands like this.Nā te aha i pēnei ai?
For what reason is it like this?Kāua e kōrero pēnā.
Don't talk like that.Nā te aha i pēnā ai?
For what reason is it like this?He aha koe i titiro tītaha pēnā mai ai?
Why do you always look sideways at me like that?He pērā te āhua o Taika, he ngākau māhaki tōna.
Taika's nature is like that, he has a kind heart.Me waiata pēnei koe: Hari huritau ki a koe!
You should sing like this: happy birthday to you!He pai ki a au ngā rangi pēnei, he ātaahua.
I like days like this - beautiful!Nā te aha i pērā ai?
For what reason is it like that?Ka waiata koe pērā i a Tui Teka.
You sing like Tui Teka.Nā te aha koe i titiro tītaha pērā mai ai?
What caused you to look sideways at me like that?Me tū teitei koe pērā i te tōtara.
You should stand tall like the tātara tree.Me pēnei taku kōrero...
Let me tell you like this...He aha i pērā ai?
Why is it like this?Kāore au i te pīrangi ki tētehi kai pērā i tēnei ata.
I do not want any food like that this morning.
