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.

Cook Islands Māori

North of the Notch on

I bought this with the hope that it would be useful for my trips to Rarotonga. It would be very!! helpful if you could include in a future version also Cook Islands Māori.

Tēnā koutou

I speak o le faasāmoa right now. Trying to learn Te Reo Māori.

I love it! But would use more if the app didn’t freeze so much

Although I have only started using the application I find that it often freezes and I will need to restart my search. I have the same issue when I am referring back to my favourites. Otherwise - love love love the app!

Excellent application.

Very smooth, comprehensive app for learning/using Maori language while traveling in New Zealand. Inputs must be precise and this app leans toward traditional Maori, as opposed to modern. That being said, it's the best app of its type on the App Store today! Well supported by university. Highly recommended. Allows for cut/paste, useful for emailing or writing letters!

ka pai!
