| Here is your box without its lid. |
Tenei to pouaka; kahore nei te taupoki. |
| Who is that boy without a hat? |
Ko wai tera tamaiti, kahore ra ona potae? |
| John went to fetch Robert, but he has come back without him. |
I haere a Hoani ki te tiki i a Rapata, otira kua hold mai ko ia anake. |
| Thomas crossed the river without a boat. |
I whaka-whiti a Tamati i te awa ahakoa kahore he poti. |
| Joseph has come without my calling him. |
Kua tae mai a Hohepa ahakoa kihai i karangatia e au. |
| I cannot cut down the tree without an axe. |
E kore e taea e au te tope i te rakau ki te kahore he toki. |
| He will not come without you fetch him. |
E kore ia e haere mai ki te kore e tikina e koe. |
