About Te Reo Māori

Te Reo Māori is a Māori language dictionary that is easy to use by searching for Māori or English words. As well as English meanings, it has example sentences with translations for many entries. It even has photographs for Aotearoa/New Zealand native flora and fauna.

As well as the words one would expect in a traditional dictionary, it also has encyclopaedic entries designed to provide key information about plants, animals, stars, planets, heavenly bodies, important Māori people, key ancestors of traditional narratives, tribal groups, ancestral canoes, song types, musical instruments, Māori names for institutions, country names, place names and other proper names. There are also detailed explanations of key concepts central to Māori culture. Comprehensive explanations for grammatical items are included, with examples of usage, as are idioms and colloquialisms with their meanings and examples.

Please note that this app is designed for use on Android 2.3.3 or higher devices

The app is designed for offline use so it is fully self-contained and doesn't need to be connected to the internet in order to operate. There are currently around 13,000 headwords which will be added to over time.

The Te Reo Maori app is the companion to the popular www.maoridictionary.co.nz website and forms part of the Te Whanake Maori Language learning series.

Worked great until I input "Don't be" into the search engine, I think there was an error in the coding because since then I have turned up zero results with every search. Otherwise it's a great app, I hope it's updated soon!

Disappointed that, after downloading the app, there is no recording of the word being spoken to learn pronunciation, like on the website. Apart from that, very useful and interesting app.

Great app, would give 5 stars if it had access to te audio library that the site has access to, and is free. Any chance of an update soon with that functionality? ?

only got the app so I could hear correct pronunciation and had it for a day and now sound is gone...very disappointed

Awesome app. Is it possible to add in "A" and "O" categories for nouns? And possibly the origin of various kupu (e.g teneki-tainui, mauka-kai tahu etc) in order to differentiate dialect? Understandably alot of work involved, but would be a huge help for many scholars of the Reo. Tena rawa atu koutou!

Kia ora! Reo maori is an aural language - would be great to have audio clips of people speaking each word, and ideally the whole phrases which give context and a sense of the language. Also when i return to the app, would be great to quickly get to the last thing I looked up. Google translate app does this really well, check it out for inspiration :) great job though, toeke! Nga mihi, pete

I thought you'd be able to use it offline but you can't. It doesn't look as good as the website one. The layout it all different. You don't get the pronunciations like on the website either. Might as well just use the website and save your $5.29

*Thanks for the update. It now works!* I have this app on my ipad and it is very useful especially for a te reo learner like me. Unfortunately it does not work at all on my S3 phone. If I try to look up a word it just hangs. If they fix it I would be more than happy to give it the high rating it deserves.

This is a very nice app. Unfortunately it has stopped working - any search returns " 0 results for ..... ". This has happened on a tablet (Samsung Note 8, Android 4.2.2) and a smart phone (Huawei Y320, Android 4.2.2). On both devices I have uninstalled and re-installed the app to no avail. Hope you can sort this soon and it can get the rating it deserves.

It's stopped working since Monday last week. Can you please fix it. I have a Samsung S5. Where is your technical support to contact. I only have this way which is silly. Will change back to 5 if you get this working.
