I had been looking for an Tahitian Dictionary for a few years and this one just fell into my lap. A friend who I buy many of my Polynesian records from just gave it to me, but he was unaware of my quest for it.
This is a very slim volume and by no means comprehensive. I assume it was aimed at the tourist to Tahiti in the 1960's but probably not super useful.
The table of contents covers the basics
It does have some nice photos though
And does include some phrases you might need.
And now I can say toilet in Tahitian! Fare iti
