<Can't even appreciate and never learn a few Maori words either, huh?> What for? They can all speak English. Maori is just another stone age language developed in isolation to cope with life as it was for a few people in a distant corner of Earth. Languages are just ways of communication. Some Maori words are part of Kiwi language, because they have a use. But learning how to say computer or cyberspace or malaria or Heisenberg's uncertainty principle or methanol or satellite or sushi or restaurant or glasnost or yoga or yoghurt or yuan or infidel or any other of a host of words is pointless. Tui, Matata, kiwi, Taupo, mana, haka, poi, and a bunch of other words are English words now, the same as sushi, cafe and restaurant are English. Mqurice
