A useful encyclopedia for anyone interested in Maori language. The 830 pages are broken into parts: Topically indexed dictionary, Grammar keywords, Syllable interpretation, New linguistic terms, plus many others.

The WE New Zealand Maori Word Encyclopedia is over 800 pages long. It is a full vocabulary of Maori language words, containing the large proportion of Maori vocabulary that are phrases in English and only now accessible in an English to Maori format. The words are not in alphabetical order, they are in topics so this book is very useable. Browsing, targeted searches. Maori vocabulary is easily browsed and searched, just as a native speaker can browse their mental vocabulary file. It's the vocabulary of the Williams (Maori to English) dictionary, so that book can be used as a companion.

New Zealand Maori Word Encyclopedia doesn't only provide a great word source that is totally browseable and easy to use for anyone locating words.
