  From Reinhard/Ron:

   "Thank you" is _Kia ora_, _Tika hoki_, _Ka pai_
  or _Kia manuia_ in Maori and _Mahalo_ or _Ho'omaika'i_ in Hawaiian 
(_Mahalo_
  "hi!" and "ciao!" as well), _Meitaki_ in Moriori, _Fa'afetai_ in Samoan,
  _Malo_ in Tongan, _Maururu_ in Tahitian and Rapanui, and _Koutai_ in
  Marquesan. .....
Interestingly, Cook Islands, or at least Rarotonga, has _Metaki_, closer to 
Moriori than Tahiti. But, as you say, we digress!
