Adventure
Māori Professor

105
(A Talkie for English-speakers interested in learning Te Reo Māori.) You’re stranded on a remote island in the South Pacific in the early 1800’s. You think you’re alone at first, but find evidence that someone else is there as well. Eventually you meet “Manāki,” a lone Māori voyager.
Manāki seems very kind, tenderhearted and willing to help you, but he doesn’t speak English. You wonder what he’s doing out here alone. More mysteries unfold as the two of you discover ruins of an ancient civilization which once flourished on the Island. Your objective is to learn Māori in order to communicate with Manāki. It’s up to you to decide if you will return to civilization with Manāki, stay and explore the island or have an entirely unexpected adventure! (Please note that the Māori pronunciation rendered by the audio is inaccurate.)
