Four Languages
The same everyday words in Reo Māori Kūki ʻĀirani, Tahitian, French and English. Our reo and reo Tahiti are close relatives, so a lot of the Tahitian will already look familiar. French is the language Tahitian sits alongside every day. Side by side, you can see how the four fit together.
Who wrote what. The Māori and English come from this
site’s spreadsheet. The French is everyday phrasebook
vocabulary. The Tahitian was written and checked by native
speakers. A blank cell means the word has not been added yet.
Nothing here is guessed from the Māori: the two languages are close
enough that a guess could look right and still be wrong.
