Grammar Of The New Zealand Language (1862) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781436729703)

Grammar Of The New Zealand Language (1862) is a linguistic study that delves into the grammatical structure of the Maori language, which is the language spoken by the indigenous people of New Zealand. The book was written by Robert Maunsell, a missionary who spent many years living among the Maori people and learning their language. Maunsell's work is considered to be one of the earliest and most comprehensive studies of the Maori language, and it provides valuable insights into the grammar, syntax, and vocabulary of this fascinating language. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Maori grammar, such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, pronouns, and prepositions. Maunsell also provides numerous examples of Maori sentences and phrases, along with English translations, to help readers understand how the language works. Overall, Grammar Of The New Zealand Language (1862) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Maori language, linguistics, or the history and culture of New Zealand.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
