"I think it's too soon to tell but at the moment, for a linguist and a researcher like me, looking at New Zealand English, it's a really interesting time of change. There's definitely change."

The use of Māori had increased dramatically over the last few years, she said, and more and more people were becoming familiar with different Māori words and concepts.

"New Zealand English makes it a really interesting test case for what happens when two languages come in contact with each other," Calude said

Note: this is exactly what I predicted would occur when I began this petition.

The speed at which Minglish is being spoken and the replacement by Maori phrases for names of all government departments, with or without a cursory nod to English in the subtitling,  means that unless we get 10,000 signatures before the election the battle for the use of English as a recognised official language  in this country will be lost and your children will be the poorer for it. Please chip in to help spread the word if you can.
