M�ori, the indigenous language of New Zealand, is an endangered, minority language, with an important role in the culture and identity of the M�ori community. This comprehensive overview looks at all aspects of the M�ori language: its history, its dialects, its sounds and grammar, its current status and the efforts being made by the M�ori community and the state to ensure its survival. Central chapters provide an overall sketch of the structure of M�ori while highlighting those aspects which have been the subject of detailed linguistic analysis - particularly phonology (sound structure) and morphology (word structure). Though addressed primarily to those with some knowledge of linguistics, this book describes a language with a wealth of interesting features. It will interest anyone wishing to study the structure of a minority language, in fields as diverse as typology, sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology, as well as all those interested in endangered languages and their preservation.
