- Or East-Insular Languages (1834)

Bag om On The Polynesian

On The Polynesian: Or East-Insular Languages is a book written by William Marsden and first published in 1834. The book provides a comprehensive study of the Polynesian languages spoken in the Pacific islands, including Hawaiian, Tahitian, Maori, and Samoan. It covers the grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation of these languages, as well as their historical development and cultural context. Marsden was a renowned linguist and scholar who had previously published works on the Malayan and Sumatran languages, and his expertise is evident in this detailed and informative volume. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Polynesian languages and their place in the wider context of linguistics and cultural studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
