I have done nothing of the sort. I have not accused you of racism nor engaged in bad faith arguments.
In this exchange, I suggested that if you’re capable of learning a longer made up English word, then learning a comparatively shorter te reo Māori word shouldn’t be too challenging.
I have to spell my street name 50% of the time, and it’s a perfectly normal English word. The last place I lived had a slightly unusual English word name, and I had to spell it 90% of the time.
Mate, it’s not a hard word to learn. I’ve just read it for the first time in my life and I’ve got it down. It’s eight simple syllables, not your life story.

I’m happy to leave it there.
That is a bad faith argument when you need to learn it in order to call for help. Kinda leaving out some details.
Besides, you fuckers just absolutely flood every thread you show up in.
Please look up the definition of what arguing in bad faith is about.
Lawyers will argue this shit for days, please don’t start fights for no reason.
Would you want to spell that out every time you give your address?

Why are you incapable of learning it though? Is there something special about you?
Is that the purpose of street names? Don’t think so
How can you tell emergency services where you are otherwise?
Do you understand what a street name is?
Lol. You’re just reaching for that situation because it’s the only possible problem, and even then it’s not likely to cause one.
You didn’t answer the question.
…whether i understand what a street name is?
Yes. Do you?
…yes?? It’s the name… of a street… used for more than just directing ambulances.
