Idioms - manners of speech and common sayings - are a key part of speaking a language fluently, and te reo Maori is rich in their usage. Based on extensive research of common te reo idioms, and consultation with some of the leading reo experts in the country, teacher and language advocate Hona Black presents this comprehensive guide. Like his previous books, this is bilingual with Maori on one page and English on the other, and will become an essential reference for speakers and students of te reo.
