Maori: A Linguistic Introduction

This is a very useful book because it points out the key linguistic points of Maori as a language but also has a good focus on the differences between the language spoken within tribal nations and tribal variants. Again this is important because the more standardised Maori often taught today is bringing changes in usage and convention as well as pronunciation. While a purist approach would be that those wishing to learn or perfect their Maori should ideally do so with a teacher from their own tribal nation and even more ideally within their own tribal areas, this is not always possible. Another important aspect of this book is use of excellent examples and sample sentences to illustrate the points being made.

It was a great book. I love it.I hope to have this type of books in future too.
