Tēnā kōrua is used to address two people. It is used in much the same way as tēnā koe but is applied when speaking to two people.

If a term of address is used will be added. For example, if two close friends are being addressed then tēnā kōrua, e hoa mā is used, or if two boys are being addressed then tēnā kōrua, e tama mā is used.

Tēnā koutou is used to address a group of people. It is used in much the same way as tēnā koe and tēnā kōrua but is only applied when speaking to three or more people.

For example, when a group of children are being addressed, tēnā koutou, tamariki mā would be appropriate.

When addressing a group of friends, say tēnā koutou, e hoa mā.
