“This is really cool! The UI is very intuitive and not annoying and the text it generated was interesting and the right level for me. This really is the first language tool I've seen in a while that's actually interesting and fresh.”

Te Reo Māori is an Eastern Polynesian language of New Zealand, an official language since the 1987 Māori Language Act and now under active revitalisation. Around 185,000 people identify as speakers, with growing numbers from kōhanga reo immersion preschools to kura kaupapa schools. It is closely related to Cook Islands Māori, Hawaiian, Tahitian and Rapa Nui.
Māori uses VSO word order, distinguishes inclusive and exclusive 'we' (tātou vs mātou), and has only 15 phonemes: five vowels and ten consonants. Verbs are marked for tense and aspect by particles (i for past, ka for non-past, e ... ana for progressive). Macrons (tohutō) over vowels mark length: tau 'year' vs tāu 'yours'. LingoBear lets you see these in real text.
