新西兰是个英联邦国家,人口结构中英国移民的后裔又占了主导地位,所以说到她的官方语言,一般人除了英语不太会作第二想。在1987年之前,这是正确答案。在此之后,占总人口8％的毛利人的语言-毛利语获得了政府的认同,成为了第二种官方语言。新西兰人最引以为豪的,除了清廉的政府外,就是这个国家没有明显的种族歧视和种族 New Zealand is a Commonwealth country, and the descendants of British immigrants in the demographic structure again dominate, so when it comes to her official language, most people don’t think twice about English. Before 1987, this was the correct answer. After that, the Maori language, which accounts for 8% of the total population, was recognized by the government and became the second official language. The New Zealanders are most proud of, except for the clean government, that there is no obvious racial discrimination and ethnicity in this country.
