Oxford Maori picture dictionary = He Pukapuk a Kupuahua Maori

Cleave, Peter.

This book illustrates in colour over 3,000 Maori words. The pictures and words cover life in the city and the country, the home, the marae, the haka party, Maori food, the human body, clothes, work, entertainment, sport, travel, space, mathematics and science, animals, birds, fish and insects, plants and trees. There is also a short illustrated grammar section. As far as possible, the text represents the vocabularies of different dialects. Where modern transliterations occur, old words of the same meaning have been included in the hope that they will once more become commonly used. This is a dictionary for learners of Maori of all ages who wish to build up their vocabulary. -- back cover.
