==First Samoan dictionary 1862==
Pratt is particularly notable for being the first person to document the Samoan language. He authored the first grammar and dictionary of the language, ''A Grammar and Dictionary of the Samoan Language, with English and Samoan Vocabulary'', which was first printed in 1862 at the Samoa Mission Press.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 New Zealand Electronic Text Centre )〕 Subsequent editions were published in 1876, 1893, and 1911. Reprints have been issued in 1960, 1977, and 1984.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Stockholms universitet: Polynesian Literature List )〕
