"Ko tā te kupu whakarite he whakaahua, he whakarite, i ētahi ahuatanga, e te nuinga o te wā nō te taiao, ki ngā āhuatanga o te tangata, ki ngā horopaki rānei. Kai te takiwā o te 500 ngā kupu whakarite o te pukapuka nei, Hei Iti te Kupu, kua āta whakaritea tēnā ki tōna whānau, tēnā ki tōna whānau, me ōna whakāmarama i ngā reo e rua - e āhei ai ngā kaipānui reo Māori, reo Pākehā rānei te mārama i ōna tikanga."--Publisher's description.
"Māori metaphors and similes poignantly mirror and draw a comparison between something, often the natural world, and the characteristics of particular people or contexts. He Iti te Kupu contains nearly 500 of the principal figures of speech in te Reo divided into themes with use and meaning explained in Māori and English - making it useful to readers and students of both languages.
In Māori, with English translation.
