Cognates include Rarotongan ava, Tahitian ava and Samoan ava. Other Polynesian languages generally retain the Proto-Polynesian meaning (e.g. Samoan and Hawaiian awa); the Māori cognate gains the additional meaning of “river”, as the large rivers encountered in newly explored New Zealand were perceived as more similar to channels than the small streams known to Māori ancestors. The Proto-Polynesian term for “flowing waters” was *waitafe, corresponding to wai tahe — see also Hawaiian waikahe, Tongan vaitafe and Samoan vaitafe. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈawa/ [ˈɐwɐ] === Noun === awa river, creek, stream Synonym: wai groove, fluting (archaic) channel Synonym: hongere (archaic) landing for canoes ==== Derived terms ==== awa kōpaka (“glacier”) awaawa (“gully”) ngutuawa (“river mouth”) === References === === Further reading === Williams, Herbert William (1917), “awa”, in A Dictionary of the Maori Language, page 28 John C.
