 PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION. 
 
 The principal feature in this edition of the MaoT'i Dictionary, which 
 calls for special notice, is the 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 which 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 effect 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 with the termination of 
 a derivative noun, cannot be found in its place, according to the 
 alpliabetical order of the letters, it may be looked for under the simpler 
 form of the word. Thus, pajme, -pae-pae^ whakapae, paenga and 
 whakapaenga may all be looked for under pae, and whakamaharahara 
 and whakamaharatanga may be looked for under the simple form, ma/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 woixls, 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 different 
 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 letters or other writings, or they 
 have been taken down on the spot from the lips of Maori speakers.

 EXTRACT fllOl THE 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 persuade 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 the first part of this Dictionary, the English wox'ds which are 
 printed in italics are to be regarded as the meanings, 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 are words of 
 foreign origin, generally transliterated forms of English words. In 
 the second part, such words are printed in italic capitals.
 
 iNTKODtJCTION. 
 
 There does not appear to be any real necessity for encumlDering 
 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 evexy noun treated as a distinct word. But we may go further 
 even than the usual practice in English dictionax'ies, 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 house," 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, rna 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.'
 
 I4t 
 
 Vlll 
 
 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. Whero, 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 mutual 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 pursued 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, 
 (sometime.s; contracted to wha) the effect of which is to make a casual 
 verb. WHakatangata signifies make into a man, or treat as a 
 man ; 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 used, without an object expressed, to signify
 
 k 
 
 straighten onesetf, or stand up; whakatamarikl, act the pari of a child ; 
 whakatane, j^l^^y the man.* 
 
 § iii. Passive Terminations. 
 The usual passive terminations of verbs are -a, -ia, -hia, -kia, -mia, 
 -ngia, -ria, -tia, -wJiia, -na, -ina, -rina, -whina. Thus — 
 
 Poro becomes poroa ; 
 
 WHawhati n whatiia; 
 
 Waru ■! waruhia; 
 
 Moto II motokia ; 
 
 Horo II horomia : 
 
 Rere n rerengia; 
 
 Mau II mauria; 
 
 Awhi II awhitia ; 
 
 WHawhao n whaowhia, and whaowhina ; 
 
 Tiki II tikiiia; 
 
 Aroha n arohaina ; 
 
 Whakaatu m whakaatui-ia 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, he travelled over ; noho, sit: 
 nohoia, be sat uj^on ; Ko te wahi tenei e tapepea nei, this is the place 
 on which one has slip2yed ; 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 covfipanions 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 phrage 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 he jmssed 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 II 
 Titiro II 
 
 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, according 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 ajioat. 
 
 § 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
 
 Jti ! 
 
 passive termination. The force of this suffix 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 up the burning coals 
 and crammed them into his mouth. Apitiria tonutanga atu ko te pa, 
 ka horo. — The pa was then attacked in addition, and fell. 
 
 § vii. NGe. 
 The syllable nge is sometimes prefixed 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 taugata, wahine, 
 matua, tupuna, and a few othex's, 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, uaed to be con- 
 sidered quite sufficient justification for a chief in picking a quarrel with
 
 Jcii 
 
 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 nyaro ; 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 ji; (7) wh and h. Examjiles : 
 
 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 A 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. Sotoe 
 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.
 
 Xlll 
 
 adjectives to denote the material of whicli a tiling is made, the purpose 
 to whicli it is applied, &c. He whare raupo, a house \built o/"] raupo ; 
 He roto tuna, a lake [in whicli] eels [abound]. Adjectives and parti- 
 ciples are used as nouns to express the quality, apart from the 
 individual person or thing in which 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, It 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 ai'e un-accented ; but when the pai-ticle a 
 precedes any of the singular personal pronouns, au, koe, ia, or the 
 indefinite pronoun mea, these words throw back their accent iipon 
 the a, which thus becomes accented.
