This part of our site deals with Maori Language. It will never replace the value of having someone to converse with, but it will try to give a foundation for our language.

Each section on the left has information and some have sound, to help with pronunciation.

By choosing the Online Course section, you will be taken to an area where there are explanations of the structure as well as online quizzes to practice what the topic is aimed at.

# Beside a heading indicates that this is a Match the Word excercise.

* Beside a heading indicates that there is sound.
