Grammar And Vocabulary Of The Language Of New Zealand is a book written by Thomas Kendall in 1820. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the language spoken by the indigenous people of New Zealand, known as the M����ori language. Kendall was a British missionary who spent several years living among the M����ori people, learning their language and culture. The book includes a detailed grammar of the M����ori language, covering topics such as pronunciation, nouns, verbs, adjectives, and syntax. It also includes a vocabulary of over 2,000 M����ori words, along with their English translations. The book is notable for being one of the earliest attempts to document the M����ori language in writing. In addition to its linguistic content, the book also provides insights into M����ori culture and customs. Kendall describes the social structure of M����ori society, their religious beliefs, and their daily life. He also includes anecdotes and stories that illustrate the language and culture of the M����ori people. Overall, Grammar And Vocabulary Of The Language Of New Zealand is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the M����ori language and culture. It is still studied and referenced by linguists and historians today, and is considered a key resource for anyone interested in the history and language 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.
