He's Tongan German I think. Funny how different Samoans & Tongans are considering how Tonga conquered and lived in Samoa for 300 years. The similarities are too many to list but the language is different though we share similar words & dances. But the mixing of Tongans & Samoans during that 300 years is evident in our appearance today. I heard the original Samoans were smaller and leaner but the Tongans brought their large frames into our Samoan blood lines. Thanks alot guys. Ugh! Lol!
Haha it's been so long since I left this comment and I appreciate your response. 😁 You were far apart from me back then when I saw you. Yeah I've been to Vava'u twice and it was nice in there.
Awesome video uso. You did an amazing job of describing both different nationalities. Just wanna remind you that fa'amolemole in Samoan language mean please. Manuia galuega o le Aso uso.
Revisiting here. This is funnier than the first time I stumbled upon this. There is no fierce rivalry between us and Tongans. That’s stretching it a bit. It’s mostly kids causing problems. Friday - May 14, 2021.
Hate how people think there's animosity between these 2great poly Nations....I will say there's only afew ( on both sides ) who spoil it for the rest, alofa aku to all my Tongan fam worldwide......in New Zealand 😋
it’s not true because the Polynesian generations are different nowadays, Polynesians are adapting to world today like the youngsters. They growing up around technology etc. and become mixed bc of different race parents
@@childskites6346 yep. Almost every Tongan or Sāmoan I've met have either a spouse that's from of the opposite island, or have children that are married to the opposite island.
Main reason for Samoa and Tonga rivalry? Fijian-Melanesians (from Tanzania) invaded, intermixed with few Tongans and alot of Lau islanders. Samoans disagreed. We were PRO-POLYNESIAN. It was a dark time in our history when Melanesians invaded and we ran away.
I disagree. We have similarities but we have differences too. Tongan culture is different from Samoan culture. Not one is better than the other, we are just different. What we should be doing is embracing BOTH similarities AND differences together. Differences should be seen as positive, and not negative.
@@neverever8559 if you’re either Tongan or Samoan then you would already know what I mean. I wouldn’t owe an explanation. Yes we’re similar but if you really know the cultures back to front - there are differences too. Some cultural traditions Tongans kept going that Samoans did not continue. Just as much as Samoans continued cultural traditions that Tongans didn’t keep going. Samoa is more patriarchal. Tonga is run by more an ancient matriarchal system.
@@neverever8559 Pffftt okay right! I wasn’t talking about yours. That’s the difference between yours and ours. Did I say that ours is more ancient than yours?? No! LMAO! **shakes head** I don’t think you properly read what I had said. But that’s okay..you want to jump to conclusions. So be it. Your choice.
Its not really commonly used, i hear more faamagalo mai, or malie lou loto,.... malie lou loto never fails to be followed by an "Aikalafu" i.e "Borrowing" emphasis in quotation marks because u aint getting shet back 😂😂😂 whenever someone messages me "Malie oe" i automatically close messenger
Not disagreeing, just offering what I know, as even between east and west there are differences in how Samoan is spoken and taught. "I'm sorry" is already a weird phrase to translate, "I am sorrowful" probably invoking sentiments like "Ua tiga lo'u loto." But in Samoan life, that sentiment would not be adapted to apologizing in the same fashion as "I'm sorry." So if it were a serious plea for pardon, we would say: "Fa'amolemole fa'amagalo mai." And I have heard "Fa'amolemole" used as an interjection of apology over small matters, like, "Oi, leai, fa'amolemole, e le o le na ato, o le isi ato." Nevermind that we could spend forever talking about "Fa'amolemole" and the purpose the idea itself serves Samoan/thence Polynesian identity. As for "Malie maia," I have never heard that used as an apology, the basic gist of that phrase being: "Be of good cheer." Turning it inward again, then, I will just share Luke 17:4, where we translated "I repent" as: "Ua ou salamo."
Idk know about Tongans but the meaning of palagi comes from papalagi which means the explosion of the land and this is from white missionaries coming to Samoa. for Samoans this looked like angels sent from god as they had not seen white people before
Lol truth is any real islander eats any meat, horse or not. Tongans just dont care much about criticism we eat what we eat lol and we are what we eat😂🤣😂🤣fml🤣😂😂🤣
It actually is but due to palagi influence its more norm to use english T.... thats why if you listen to old old samoan songs or such you can hear the softer t instead of english t... not exactly as hard as tongan y which is said as like ad but more like a alveolar dental fricative than a dental fricative, us manu'a still speak with t in normal day speech. And the words are thoroughly pronounced, like instead of saying kapugi or mapugi, we say matapuni
@@tasilua1051 in church the people who do speeches they always use the t as in a respectful manner. I always here them saying the English t. Some elderly people who do talks they use a softer Tongan t.

Man our languages are pretty damn similar
True besides your hilarious 😂 😃 😅malo uso...alofa aku..ofa aku 😅😅😅❤cheeehooo 😊❤❤
With the current DNA technology they were able to find out that all Polynesians migrated from Indonesia which explains why our languages are similar
Awesome video!!👌Great job bro
Mate I know I a few years late 🤣 but this is so funny and factual at the same time 💯
Nice breakdown 😂
I'm pretty sure fa'amolemole means "please" in Samoan. But good stuff bro!
Same in Tongan meaning
Actually “faamolemole” can also be an apologetic expression in the Samoan language depending on the situation it’s being used in.
@@samuelalafitaga6554 is correct, it can also be used to say sorry based on context
Awesome video uso. You did an amazing job of describing both different nationalities. Just wanna remind you that fa'amolemole in Samoan language mean please. Manuia galuega o le Aso uso.
It has two meanings in Tongan

Nice vidéos from #jun jun alano friend
❤️ free the tokousos
My Tongan friend thought I was Tongan because I said palangi. I'm Samoan by the way.
Idk know about Tongans but the meaning of palagi comes from papalagi which means the explosion of the land and this is from white missionaries coming to Samoa. for Samoans this looked like angels sent from god as they had not seen white people before
Palangi in Tongan means touch the sky. Clouds are the only whitest thing they can compare their skin
Perfect Tongan Tongan. As opposed to kiwi or Aussie Tongan 😂

Tongans don't eat dog in the States. It's frowned upon here. But horse... we eat it on a weekly basis!
@Lui MAMEA even eating horses is frowned upon in America. I always have to hide my dog from my uncle...
@Lui MAMEA he's fresh from Tonga. My cousin's dog went "missing" and since then I've been hiding my dog lol.

Samoans don't use the d sound. But very accurate!!
In Manu’a the dialect speaks with a “d”
In olden times, Samoans did use the d pronunciation. Some still do today, including one of my uncles and myself.
@@theephraimite really? i never heard of that
@@boxcuber now you have
@@theephraimite lies the samoans never spoke with a d sound do you have any proof?
Mata usi mean hi in both language
Tongans have a higher level of language that is chiefly-Samoans have formal speaking that more similar to Tongan or is is Tongan.
The "T" in Samoan is not pronounced as I is the Tongan language
It actually is but due to palagi influence its more norm to use english T.... thats why if you listen to old old samoan songs or such you can hear the softer t instead of english t... not exactly as hard as tongan y which is said as like ad but more like a alveolar dental fricative than a dental fricative, us manu'a still speak with t in normal day speech.

@@infiresarmy9511 the correct way is the softer t akin to tonga, not english t, in manua we still speak with this t
@@tasilua1051 it's not a softer Tongan t. Some samoans speak different than others. So it is in fact an English t.
