Te Aka Māori Dictionary - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Te Aka is a Māori language dictionary that is easy to use by searching for Māori or English words. It includes the ability to filter search results, and to save definitions to a Favourites list. There are currently over 24,000 Māori headword entries in the database, which is being added to over time. An offline dictionary has also been included when internet connectivity is not available.

As well as English meanings, it has example sentences with translations for many entries. It even has photographs and audio clips for Aotearoa/New Zealand native fauna and photographs of flora, important people and other items where a photograph will aid understanding.

In addition to the words one would expect in a traditional dictionary, it also has encyclopaedic entries designed to provide key information about plants, animals, stars, planets, heavenly bodies, important Māori people, key ancestors of traditional narratives, tribal groups, ancestral canoes, song types, musical instruments, Māori names for institutions, country names, place names and other proper names. There are also detailed explanations of key concepts central to Māori culture. Comprehensive explanations for grammatical items are included, with examples of usage, as are idioms and colloquialisms with their meanings and examples.

The Te Aka Maori app is the companion to the popular www.maoridictionary.co.nz website and forms part of the Te Whanake Māori Language learning series.

3 bc…..

I rated this app a three because I tried installing the app bc my mum did it and I wanted to join her journey

Does not work ISO 14.2

This dictionary was awesome however, stopped working & miss it a lot as it was my go to

Dumb !!!

The worst app to learn from Can’t even put a sentence together Can’t even search a small sentence Not worth my $6, ripped off 🙄

REDUND

This app is absolutely useless doesn’t represent Nz correctly waste of money . Cannot find words in the search keeps coming up blank SERIOUSLY?

Need to be able to scroll favourites

I find the App a great resource for learning new words. I’ve saved more words and phrases to my favourites than will fit on one page and am unable to scroll down to see the remaining entries. I’d be grateful if you could fix this.

useless

This app doesn’t work...***don’t pay these muppets $6 for this puddle of pōro poraka!! It’s fubar and shouldn’t even be in the app store.

Not happy so far.

I’m beginning my journey into te reo. I put words or phrases into the app that I copy directly from a book and it usually comes back with zero matches. I do my best to spell a word that I want to check correctly and it comes back zero matches. Why is there not some kind of auto correct if I spell the word wrong? Or some way to use this dictionary actually like a dictionary? Save your money this app is useless.

Kei ahau he take!!! Na Te Ahu kuiti ō Ngāti Raukawa

I te wā I kapohia au oku kupu hou ki nga favourites. E kore au e taea te kite te katoa o oku kupu, I te wā tomo au ki roto ka kite au te wharangi tuatahi engari kore au e taea te panuku ana ki raro.

Good ... but needs voice translation ‼️‼️

Great app but really needs to include the voice translation for the price!!

The best Te Reo dictionary

The best dictionary app for Te Reo and English translations as it includes context (like modifier, noun, stative verb) and examples of use. The fact that it includes whakatauākī (proverbs) and peha (figure of speech) is a bonus. I wish the button to listen to the pronunciation actually worked, like it does on the web version. Could the developers look at this please?
