    Te Windows

    Are you viewing this on Windows version Te Reo?
    What a great idea to promote the language.

    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    wonder if the spell check includes chur, au, bro etc

    though i see they had to invent a whole bunch of new words to cover the stuff they obviously didnt have back in the day and was talking to a maori mate about how they would know the new words and he just said "well the cut and paste icons will be the same, no need to use the new words"

    I cant see why Microsoft hasnt done this prior, it's just another language to add to the list with a simple down load so why not.

    I maybe interested in getting it just for the vocab list, and then Id know the correct name for the program would be "Nga Matapihi XP 2006"

    So they have a Maori dictionary/thesaurus installed as well so that you can compose a document in Maori and have it spellchecked and grammarisated?

    Yeah but it might be a brilliant anti-virus strategy.
    It might reduce the ability of some spotty geek in Bulgaria from writing a nasty to get at it if all the commands are in Maori?

    Hoot?

    Better than the Aztec version, which just dissappeared...

    I want Te Reo Office! It would be a hoot. Not enough people say things would be a hoot.

    One was going to make a flippant comment about writing in one's native tongue but one paused and thought better of it. One also wondered as to whether Maori has an apostrophe to denote possession or whether there was a naff Americanism for arse (whero)...

    Didn't the Treaty specify unlimited sovereignty over the Internet?

    Now I'm just waiting for cockney windows.

    In the meantime I'll just have to head down the apples before I get myself in right barney!
