Spongebob Tarau Porowha

As I mentioned in passing the other day, Spongbob is being translated into Maori. It’s a great coup for Maori language TV if you ask me – it’s an incredibly popular children’s tv show.

The Herald has a video of the translation process.

Apparently translating squidword’s “Jewish New York” style accent into Maori is quite tricky, but Patrick is much easier!
