【澳纽网编译】玛塔里基(Matariki)标志着毛利人的新年,标志着人们聚集在一起,纪念死者,庆祝现在并为未来制定计划。

It’s only become an official public holiday in the past two years, but it’s a day New Zealanders look forward to very much.
在过去的两年里,它才成为官方的公共假日,但这是新西兰人非常期待的一天。

Like Easter, the date of Matariki changes from year to year, but it will always fall in June or July. This year, the public holiday falls on Friday 28 June.
像复活节一样,玛塔里基的日期每年都在变化,但它总是在六月或七月。今年的公共假期是6月28日星期五。

It’s a non-working day just like any other public holiday – which means if you are working on the day (as regularly rostered), you’re entitled to time-and-a-half pay and an alternative day off.
这是一个非工作日,就像任何其他公共假期一样——这意味着如果你在当天工作(按照常规排班),你有权获得一倍半的工资和替代休息日。

What is Matariki? 什么是玛塔里基?

Matariki is the name of a star cluster in the constellation of Taurus, commonly known as Pleiades. In mid-winter, the stars rise and herald in Te Mātahi o te Tau, the Māori New Year.
玛塔里基是金牛座的一个星团的名称,俗称昴宿星团。隆冬时节,星星冉冉升起,预示着毛利新年的到来。

The word ‘Matariki’ is an abbreviation of ‘Ngā mata o te ariki o Tāwhirimātea’ or ‘the eyes of the god Tāwhirimātea’. Matariki was taken as a wife by Rehua and she gave birth to eight children, each star having a unique purpose and defined role in Te Ao Māori.
“Matariki”一词是“Ngā mata o te ariki o Tāwhirimātea”或“Tāwhirimātea神的眼睛”的缩写。玛塔里基被热华娶为妻,生了八个孩子,每个孩子在毛利世界中都有独特的目的和明确的角色。

Traditionally falling at the end of the harvest, the cluster’s rise marked a time of abundant food and feasting. Today, people across Aotearoa gather to celebrate the day with plenty of kai, stargazing, and community gathering.
传统上,该星团在收获结束时下降,但该星团的崛起标志着食物丰富和盛宴的时期。今天,新西兰各地的人们聚集在一起庆祝这一天,进行大量的食物、观星和社区聚会。

Why does the holiday date change each year?
为什么假期日期每年都会改变?

Keen observers will have noticed the Matariki public holiday is observed on different dates each year.
敏锐的观察者会注意到,玛塔里基公共假期每年在不同的日期举行。

This is because Māori follow an environmental calendar system that considers the sun, the moon, various stars, and other ecological indicators to determine time.
这是因为毛利人遵循环境日历系统,该系统考虑了太阳、月亮、各种星星和其他生态指标来确定时间。

The Matariki public holiday dates fall on the closest Friday to the Tangaroa lunar period during the lunar month of Pipiri. Tangaroa is not a single phase of the moon but rather the last quarter period of the lunar calendar. Because of this, the dates to celebrate Matariki will differ from year to year.
玛塔里基(Matariki)的公共假期日期是皮皮里(Pipiri)农历月期间最接近坦加罗阿(Tangaroa)的星期五。Tangaroa不是月亮的单一阶段,而是农历的最后一个下弦月。因此,庆祝 Matariki 的日期每年都会有所不同。

Established in April 2022, Matariki is the first public holiday to recognise Te Ao Māori, and the first new public holiday since Waitangi Day became a public holiday in 1974.
Matariki节日 建立于 2022 年 4 月,是第一个承认 毛利世界的公共假日,也是自 1974 年怀唐伊日成为公共假日以来的第一个新的公共假日。

What’s open? 什么是开放的?

Trading restrictions don’t apply to Matariki in the way they would for Easter holidays, Christmas, or the first half of Anzac Day.
交易限制不像复活节假期、圣诞节或澳新军团日的前半部分那样适用于马塔里基。

Shops, restaurants, cafes and other hospitality and retail venues will be open as usual, but they can choose to close if they wish – so it pays to check opening hours beforehand.
商店、餐馆、咖啡馆和其他酒店和零售场所将照常营业,但如果他们愿意,他们可以选择关闭——所以提前检查营业时间是值得的。

Supermarkets and malls will be open too, but some may operate with shorter hours.
超市和商场也将开放,但有些超市和商场的营业时间可能会缩短。

Surcharges 附加费

Public holidays are an expensive day to be a business and Matariki is no different.
公共假期是做生意的昂贵日子,Matariki 也不例外。

Hospitality businesses in particular may add a 15 percent surcharge to their services – this is usually to cover the costs of paying employees time-and-a-half.
特别是酒店业可能会对其服务收取 15% 的附加费——这通常是为了支付员工一倍半的费用。

If a business does charge a surcharge, they must have clear signage communicating this to the customer.
如果企业确实收取附加费,他们必须有清晰的标牌向客户传达这一点。

This can be done with the display of signs detailing the surcharge, a message on the business’s website, or by verbally letting the customer know at the time of purchase or before they order.
这可以通过展示详细说明附加费的标志、企业网站上的消息或在购买时或订购前口头告知客户来完成。

If customers believe they have been misled about a surcharge, they can complain to the Commerce Commission.
如果客户认为他们在附加费方面被误导了,他们可以向商务委员会投诉。
