Google Translate works for Maori. That could certainly be useful. And so, the other day I experimented by typing in some English sentences. I figure that simple sentences ought to translate well if I stick to simple grammar and avoid any idiom.

So that the sentences weren’t random, I obtained or adapted them from a book. I used Johann Wyss’s Swiss Family Robinson.

I will copy them out according to my version of David James’s Gold List Method. I will start my daily session in that manner. I feel motivated to do so, and that must be a good thing!
