How do you say Chelsea in maori?

There isn't a direct translation of "Chelsea" into Māori. Māori language doesn't typically translate foreign words directly, but rather finds a similar-sounding word or uses a descriptive phrase.

Here are a few ways to try expressing "Chelsea" in Māori:

* "Te Kirihi" - This could be a possible Māori translation, as "Kirihi" is similar to "Chelsea" in pronunciation. However, it lacks direct meaning and would need context to understand the reference.

* "Te Wahi O Te Kirihi" - This translates to "The Place of Chelsea" and could be a more descriptive option, although it's quite literal and not particularly elegant.

* "Te Wāhi O Te Kara" - This is a more poetic option that uses the Māori word for "black" ("Kara") and implies the Chelsea district in London, known for its historic black cabs and the Chelsea Pensioners.

Ultimately, how you choose to say "Chelsea" in Māori depends on the context and the desired effect.
