Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of the New Zealand language written by Archdeacon William Williams.

The dictionary is divided into two parts, with the first part being an English to Maori dictionary and the second part being a Maori to English dictionary. The author includes grammatical information and pronunciation guides to aid the reader's comprehension. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about the etymology and grammar of the New Zealand language.
