PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION.
The principal feature in this edition of the Maori Dictionary, which
calls for special notice, is tlie arrangement of the words. There
are certain changes in form which are applicable to a very large
proportion of the words in the language, and especially to adjectives
and verbs. These changes are effected by the reduplication of one
or more syllables, by prefixing the causative 'whaka,' and by the
addition of a termination whicb forms a derivative noun. It has been
thought better therefore, in this edition, not to place all words so
changed in alphabetical order, as so many independent words ; but
to group them all under the simple forms, and to give, in an Intro-
duction, an explanation of their usual efiect in modifying the meaning
of a word. If, therefore, a word having one or two syllables repeated,
or a word beginning with ^ whaka,' or a word witli the termination of
a derivative noun, cannot be found in its place, according to the
alphabetical order of the letters, it may be looked for under the simpler
form of the word. Thus, papae, paepae, tvhakapae, paenga and
whakapaenga may all be looked for under pae, and whakamaharahara
and whakamaharatanga may be looked for under the simple form, wia/iara.
If, in any such case, the particular development of the word is not to
be found under the simple form, the meaning may be ascertained by
a reference to the Introduction. A little experience will soon shew
the advantage of having these various forms of each word thus grouped
together.
The accents have been omitted, and the quantity of the vowels, as
being of much more importance, has been indicated by the usual long
and short marks. Rules for accentuation are appended to the Intro-
duction.
The first, or Maori and English portion of the work has been
submitted to very careful revision, and the additions amount to
upwards of 1200 genuine Maori words, without reckoning the
reduplicated forms, the causatives with 'whaka,' or the derivative
nouns. The large number of corrections and additions, and the
alteration in the general plan of the work have involved the necessity
of re-writing the whole,

It would be a great achievement, if it were possible, to obtain a
collection of all known Maori words, with well authenticated examples
of genuine Maori usage. This book makes no pretension to any such
completeness. The difficulty of the task of collecting words can be
fully appreciated by those only who have made trial of it. To make a
collection at all approaching to completeness would require the
co-operation of a number of individuals, each working in a diflferent
district, for there are many woi'ds, which, though well known in one
district, may be absolutely unknown in another. Nor is it so easy to
procure good illustrative examples as it may be imagined to be. A
large number of examples have been taken from the "Mythology and
Traditions of the New Zealanders," edited by Sir G. Grey, and
published in London in the year 1854. The numbers appended to
many of the examples now given refer to the pages of that work from
which they have been taken. The other examples have for the most
part either been copied from Maori lettei-s or other writings, or they
have been taken down on the spot from the lips of Maori speakers.

EXTMCT FROM TIIF PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.
It has indeed been proposed by some, that the New Zealand
language should be discouraged as much as possible, and that the
Natives should at once be instructed in English. It must be allowed
that, if such a plan were practicable, the advantages arising from it
would be great ; and civilization cannot advance so favorably without
it. Let this difficulty be once overcome, and the immense fund of
information to be gathered from books in our own language is thrown
open to this interesting people. But a knowledge of facts tells us the
acquisition of English by the New Zealanders will only be partial,
even in those districts in which our principal settlements are made,
while the larger portion of the Natives will hold but little intercourse
with our countrymen, who will have no inducement to settle in those
districts which the Natives generally prefer. That it will be difficult
to pex'suade the Natives, as a people, to adopt our language to the
disuse of their own, may be inferred from the fact, that the Irish and
Welsh, even though living in the heart of English towns, continue to
use their favourite tongue, and that, too, after our connection as one
people has continued for many centuries. While, therefore, every
encouragement should be given to the Natives to learn English, it will
not be the less necessary for those, whose position brings tliem into
frequent communication with this people, to learn their language ; and,
it is interesting to know that many are ready to make use of every
help which may be affiarded them. As these attempts are persevered
in, it is likely that a great accession of valuable materials will ere long
be made from various sources. If, in the meantime, the present
Compilation shall be the means of assisting those who are disposed to
prosecute the study — though it be only as a ground-work for something
more extensively useful hereafter, it will have served the purpose for
which it was undertaken,

In tlie first part of this Dictionary, the English words which are
printed in italics are to be regarded as the ')neanings, or English
equivalents of the Maori words, or sentences to which they are appended.
Mere descriptions of words, which may or may not have English
equivalents, are printed in Roman type.
Those words which are printed in Roman capitals ai'e words of
foreign origin, generally transliterated forms of English words. In
the second part, such words are printed in italic capitals.
INTRODtlGTION.
Tliere does not appear to be any real necessity for encunihering
the pages of a dictionary by treating as so many distinct words what
are, in fact, only different regular uses of the same word, In an
English dictionary, for example, no one would expect to find the plural
form of every noun treated as a distinct word. But we may go further
even than the usual practice in English dictionaries, and say that there
is no necessity for setting down all the regularly formed participles,
and the nouns ending in -er, as distinct words : for no one, who is
acquainted with the habits of ordinary English verbs, would fail to see
at a glance the meaning of such words as "doer," "doing," &c., as soon
as he had ascertained the meaning of the verb from which they are
regularly derived. Nor again, when one hears or uses the expression,
" a stone hoiise," is it necessary to consider the word " stone " as an
adjective, distinct from the noun " stone," because it happens, in this
particular instance, to be used as an adjective, any more than we
should say that there is also an adverb, "stone," to explain such an
expression as " stone dead." But when the attempt is not made to
present each word under every variety of form, and in every possible
position in which it may be found in the language, it becomes the more
important that the various modifications of form to which any word is
liable should be pointed out, and that the effect which such modifi-
cations usually have upon the meaning of the word should be
explained. This is the intention of the present introduction.
§ i. Reduplication.
Adjectives and verbs are modified in meaning by the reduplication
of one or both of the syllables of the root.*
* Most simple Maori words seem to be formed from a di-syllabic root ; some
consisting of the root only, and others of the root and a prefixed syllable. Of
the prefixed syllables, ma often constitutes the word an adjective. Long vowels
and diphthongs are equivalent in this respect to two syllables, a consonant having
certainly in some cases, if not in all, been dropped : thus 'ke,' different, is, in the
Tonga dialect, 'kehe,' and 'tai,' sea, is 'tahi.' By way of illustration we may note
that, in ' tatahi ' and ' tahatai,' we have two forms of the same word, which, without
contraction, would have been 'tahatahi.'
In the case of adjectives, the effect of doubling both syllables of
the root is to diminish the intensity of the meaning, thus : Mate, sick ;
matemate, sickly. Wera, hot ; werawera, rather hot ; warm. If one
syllable only of the root is doubled, the effect may be either (1) to
diminish the intensity of the meaning, as in the following : Pango,
black; papango, somewhat black, dark. Where, red; whewhero,
reddish. Maro, stiff ; maroro, somewhat stiff; or, (2) to denote the
plural number, thus : He rakau pai, a good tree ; He rakau papai,
good trees. It is to be observed, however, in the latter case, that the
simple form is used both for singular and plural ; the reduplicated
form for plural only.
In the case of verbs, the effect of the two kinds of reduplication
is somewhat different. The reduplication of the first syllable of the
root denotes either (1) a prolongation or continuance of the action with
increased intensity, or (2) a mut\xal action ; while the doubling of both
syllables of the root gives the verb a frequentative force, denoting
that the action is frequently repeated, the intensity being diminished.
Thus, kimo denotes the ordinary involuntary winking of the eyes ;
kikimo denotes that the eyes are closed and kept fast closed ; kimokimo
again, denotes a frequent winking. The following examples may
serve as illustrations : Kei te whaia tonutia te Hauhau e te Kawana-
tanga : kaore ano i tae noa mai he korero o te pipiritanga. — The
Hauhaus are still 2)ursued by the colonial forces : no tidings have yet
reached us of their having joined battle. Hopuhopu kau ana : ka mate
nga atua o Puarata. — He caught PuaratcCs atua one after another, and
thus they were destroyed.
In words of three syllables, the doubling of both syllables of the
root causes a euphonious lengthening of the first syllable. Mania,
slippery ^ becomes maniania ; and tinei, extinguish, becomes tineinei.
§ ii. WHaka.
Nouns, adjectives and verbs may all have a prefix, whaka,
(sometimes contracted to wha) the effect of which is to make a casual
verb. WHakatangata signifies make into a tnan, or treat as a
m,an ; whakapai, make good, or pronounce good ; whakanoho, cause
to sit ; whakamohio, cause to know. Nouns and some adjectives, having
whaka thus prefixed, are often used intransitively, when they have a
reflex signification, it being assumed that, where no object is expressed,
the agent is himself the object of his own action. Thus whakatika,
straighten, is commonly i^sed, without an object expressed, to signify
IX
straighten oneself, or stand tip ; whakatamariki, OjCt the part of a child ;
whakatane, j^lf^y ^^*^ vmn*
§ iii. Passive Terminations.
The usual passive terminations of verbs are -a, -ia, -Ida, -Ma, -mia,
-ngia, -ria, -tia, -whia, -na, -ina, -rina, -whina. Thus —
Poro becomes poroa ;
WHawhati
whatiia ;
Waru
waruhia ;
Moto
motokia ;
Horo
horomia :
Rere
rerengia ;
Mau
mauria ;
Awhi
awhitia ;
WHawhao
whaowhia, and whaowhina ;
Tiki
tikiaa ;
Aroha
arohaina ;
Whakaatu
whakaaturia and whakaaturina.
It is questionable whether any rule can be laid down for applying
one termination rather than another to any given verb. Usage varies
in different parts of the country so much that it appears to be mere
matter of custom, some regard being paid to euphony.
Intransitive, as well as transitive, verbs have a passive voice,
requiring the addition of a preposition, in English, to make the sense
complete. Thus, haere, go; haerea, be travelled over; noho, sit:
nohoia, be sat uj)on ; Ko te wahi tenei e tapepea nei, this is the place
on which one has slipped ; Kotahi te wahi i tapekatia, there was one
place to which they turned aside.
Some adverbs, and all adjectives when used adverbially, take one
or other of the above terminations whenever the verbs with which they
are connected are passive. Example : Tokowha o ona hoa i kainga
katoatia e ia there were four of his comjmnions who were devoured
entirely by him.
Nouns, adjectives and participles will also be met with occasion*
ally, carrying the termination of a passive verb. This form expresses
a change into that which the simple word signifies. Thus, Koroua
signifies old man ; Kua korouatia koe, you have grown into an old
man ; Ka tapatia te hiako, the skin has become chapped ; Aua e
taparurutia te haere, let not our rate of travelling become slow.
* This reflex use is met with in other words besides those compounded with
whaka. Neke, v.t. vwve, if no object is expressed, is always understood to mean,
move oneself.
Sometimes a phrase may be treated like a verb when it is
impossible to consider it as a permanent compound word. For instance,
the expression, ma te matapihi, through the window, might be welded
together into one word, and a passive termination added, thus,
Ma-te-matapihi-tia mai, Let it be j)assed through the window.
§ iv. Nouns of Circumstance.
These are derived from adjectives, participles or verbs by the
simple addition of one of the following terminations, -nga, -anga, -hanga,
-manga, -ranga, -tanga, -inga ; the choice of the termination for any
given word being, as in the case of the passives, somewhat arbitrary,
and dependent upon usage which is not always uniform. Thus —
Mahi makes mahinga ;
Noho M
Titiro
nohoanga ;
tirohanga ;
Ngaro II
Whakaatu u
Pupuri II
A
ngaromanga ;
whakaaturanga ;
puritanga ;
ainga.
In some few cases the final vowel is altered, for arahi makes arahanga,
and nunumi makes numanga. These nouns denote the circumstance,
time or place of the action or condition, and those which are derived
from verbs, may be either active or passive, accox-ding to the context.
Thus, patu signifies strike, and patunga, the circumstance, time or
place of striking or of being struck. Tana patunga i a au, the circum-
stance of his striking me. Tona patunga e au, the circumstance of his
being struck by me.
§ V. Numeral Prefixes.
These are (1) e, prefixed to all but tahi ; (2) ko, prefixed to tahi
only ; (3) toko, used in speaking of persons when the number is not
higher than nine; (4) hoko, which expresses multiples of ten, but
sometimes also is merely equivalent to toko ; and (5) taki, which is
distributive, as takiwhitu, by sevens. All of these except ko are used
with the interrogative numeral hia, and in speaking of persons, taki is
used along with toko, as takitokowha, by four persons at a time.
Taki is also used sometimes with adjectives or participles to denote
that the word applies to each and all of the things spoken of. Ka
takimanu anake nga waka, the canoes are one and all afloat.
§ vi. -TANGA.
Passive verbs sometimes have a suffix, -tanga, wliich, if the verb
is qualified by an adverb, is attached to the adverb in place of the
passive termination. The force of this sufTix it is not very easy to
determine. Sometimes, at all events, it seems to have the same effect
as 'ana' would have in the same position. Hike tonu ia ki nga
ngarehu, apuatanga. — He immediately snatched uj) the burning coals
and crammed them into his motith. Apitiria tonutanga atu ko te pa,
ka horo. — The pa was then attacked in addition, arid fell.
§ vii. NGe.
The syllable nge is sometimes pi-efixed to personal or possessive
pronouns, as nge-au, nge-ona ; and sometimes it appears as a suffix to
the adverbs pea and koa, thus, peange, koange ; but in none of these
cases does it apparently affect the meaning of the word to which it is
attached. Whatever meaning it may have originally had, it is now
only an euphonious suffix.
§ viii. Different modes op Spelling.
A Maori, in writing a long vowel, will frequently double it to
shew that it is long, especially when it may be important to keep it
distinct from another word which is similarly spelt, but differently
pronounced, and thus we may have the same word spelt two different
ways. Kainga, dwellingplace, is thus often written kaainga, to
distinguish it from kainga, act of eating. The words tangata, wahine,
matua, tupuna, and a few others, may, in the same way, have the
vowel in the antepenultimate syllable doubled, to shew that that
syllable is to be pronounced long, to denote the plural number,
§ ix. Disguised Words.
Well-known words may sometimes be met with in such a disguise
that it is difficult at first sight, to recognize them at all. The disguise
may be effected (1) by the transposition of single letters or syllables;
or (2) by the substitution, for one letter, of another which has, or may
be assumed to have, some affinity with it; or (3) by the substitution,
in a compound word, for one of its elements, of another word having
the same signification. Changes of the first class may perhaps be set
down merely as peculiarities of dialect, though some of them have
possibly had an arbitrary origin. Those of the third class, and
probably those of the second, have originated in a desire to avoid the
possibility of one's getting into trouble through the accidental
resemblance of the name of some great chief to a word in common use.
The mere fact of his name, or a word similar to it, being used in a
manner which he considered disrespectful to himself, used to be con-
sidered quite sufficient justification for a chief in picking a quarrel with
icu
his neighbours, when the quarrel was determined on, and nothing but
a plausible pretext was wanting. The following may serve as an
illustration of this. Some years ago, the child of a chief of the
NGatiporou tribe received the name of Te Wairama. In consequence
of this the word honu came into common use for water, and the usual
word, wai, was avoided for fear of giving offence.
Cases of transposition are not uncommon, and sometimes both
forms of a transposed word may be found in use together in the
same district. Thus rango, fly, is transposed into ngaro ; and
ngawhariki into whanariki.*
Interchangeable letters are (1) a and e; (2) a and o ; (3) i and u ;
(4) m, n and ng; (5) k and ng ; (6) k and 2^; (7) wh and h. Examples :
1. Teina, tana.
2. Taimaha, toimaha.
3. Taimaha, taumaha.
Tupuna, tipuna.
4. Momi, ngongi.
Memenge, memene.
5. Karengo, kareko.
Kainga, kaika.
6. Karengo, parengo.
7. Mawhiti, mahiti.
Here should also be mentioned certain local peculiarities in
pronunciation which often cause changes in orthography. (1) Some
of the natives in the Bay of Plenty habitually substitute n for ng.
(2) Some of the tribes on the west coast of the North Island, from
Taranaki southwards, have a difficulty with h and wh. For h they
substitute what, in the case of Samoan and some other dialects, is
called a ' break,' and is represented by an invei-ted comma ; and for
wh they use the simple w; Whanganui, for example, being pronounced
by them as if written Wanganui. (3) The Ngaitahu in the South
Island substitute k for ng, pronouncing kainga as if written kaika,
and tangata as if written takata.
§ x. The same word in different aspects.
The same word may, at different times assume the functions of
several different parts of speech. Thus Nouns are frequently used as
* The word, engari, is probably only a transposed form of erangi. Sottie
good authorities consider the two words to be distinct, both in etymology and
signification, but after much close observation of the use of the two words by
Natives, both in writing and speaking, I have been driven to the conclusion that
they are identical, at least in meaning.
adjectives to denote the material of which a tiling is made, the purpose
to which it is applied, &c. He whare raupo, a house [built o/"] raupo ;
He roto tuna, a lake \in ^v]iic1{\ eels [abound]. Adjectives and parti-
ciples are used as nouns to express the quality, apart from the
individual person or thing in wliich that quality may reside. Haere
koe, e hoki ki uta, hei korero i toku toa, Go, return to the shore, and
tell of my bravery. Adjectives and participles are also commonly used
as adverbs. I mauria maoatia mai te kai, The food was brought in a
cooked state.
Verbs again frequently become nouns ; the infinitive mood of the
verb being, in fact, nothing more than the verb treated as a noun.
Or again, they do the work of adjectives and adverbs. He matua
whangai, a foster father.
Nouns also will sometimes assume the functions of verbs, as in
the case already mentioned, § iii, as well as in others. Nona ka
kaumatua nei, ka timata tona mate, /' was when he arrived at man^s
estate that his sickness began.
ACCENTUATION.
It may be set down as a general rule, to which there are some
exceptions, that Maori words are always accented on the first syllable ;
but compound words, or words which have the disyllabic root doubled,
have a secondary accent on the second portion of the word.
WHaka, beginning a word is always un-accented.
The articles, he te, nga, all the prepositions, the verbal particles,
and the particles a and ko are un-accented ; but when the particle a
precedes any of the singular personal pronouns, au, koe, ia, or the
indefinite pronoun mea, these words throw back their accent upon
the a, which thus becomes accented.
