Description

Tahitian, once the language only of Tahiti and its near neighbours, is now spoken throughout the 100 or so islands of French Polynesia. Because of the early influence of English missionaries who used it as a language of instruction, the authority of the written Tahitian word has superseded the other languages and dialects of the region. This booklet is designed as an elementary introduction to the language.--From back cover.
