Samoan Language Week

Today is Samoan language week.We celebrate Samoan language week because its the first seven pacific language to be held this year.

In school we don't really talk Samoan because we are not all Samoan, but sometimes we do it for fun. We either say good morning  in Samoan when we do the roll or say good bye in Samoan in the after noon.

• Afio mai or Susu mai or Maliu mai – Welcome
• Fa’afetai or Fa’afetai tele – Thank you
• Ou te alofa ia te oe – I love you
• Ia vave ona e manuia – Get well soon
• Fa’amolemole – Please
• Fa’amalie atu – Sorry
• Malō, Malō soifua or Tālofa – Hello
• Fā or Tōfā or Tōfā soifua – Goodbye
• A malu i fale, e malu i fafo – Respect yourself and others will
• E tua le fale tele i le faleo’o – Even the mighty needs others.

We say the these thing to other people so they can know it is Samoan language week.
