Whānau

Māori language word for extended family

Whānau is the Māori language word for the basic extended family group. Within Māori society the whānau encompasses three or four generations and forms the political unit below the levels of hapū (subtribe), iwi and waka. These steps are emphasised in Māori genealogy as a person's whakapapa.
