How Close are Hawaiian and Cook Islands Languages? - FestPAC 2024

- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- At FestPAC this year, I was fortunate enough to talk story with a few Cook Islanders regarding the similarities and differences between languages and culture. To my surprise, I found out that Hawaiian is extremely similar to some of their dialects! So much so that we were able to converse in our own respective languages and be able to understand each other (most of the time). Mahalo to Tarani Napa, Kora Kora and Dr. Teina Rongo for their time and aloha.

It's really cool to hear Hawaiian olelo and Mangarongaro reo can converse and understand each other that goes to show that moana nui a kiva is all Family
I didn’t know how much in common there would be. It was a genuinely surprising and very enjoyable.
He mea maikaʻi kēia e like me ka mea maʻamau. Mahalo nui loa!
You're an invaluable asset to your community and the olelo. This content is monumentally important to keeping the olelo alive.
We are in the process of talking about leaving diaspora and coming back home. We need more Hawaiians back home.
Mahalo. He mea iki no hoi keia hana nei. I’m glad that this content has had an impact on you. I plan to make more! We definitely need Hawaiians to move home💯
I love this exchange
fascinating!
I loved the tuatua with aunty. That was so awesome as l could understand you through aunty speaking our reo and then filling in the gaps of your korerorero. So fascinating!
I'm loving all of these Polynesian comparisons and contrasts. It really shows that Hawaii is more related to the Pacific islands than the American continent.
For sure. The Pacific is our home and where our family resides.
Hawaiian are our people they arent americans.
Meitaki ma’ata! ʻSei’ is ʻHei’ in Tahitian or ʻlei’ in Hawaiian (s in western Polynesian languages usually convert to h in Hawaiian or Tahitian, glottal in Rarotongan Maori). ʻUpoko’ is ’upo’o’ in Tahitian or ’po’o’ in Hawaiian. ʻSei ’atu’ is ʻlei haku’.
Well said. Also "fale, fare, hale"...and so many more.
Chicken skin kanaka 💯💯 Mahalo nui loa for sharing, now i gotta learn more Olelo so i can understand 🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏
Crazy yeah. Well let me know when you want to make the commitment to learn. There’s a lot of options available 💯
I'm Tuvaluan and i understand everything they saying
Tuvaluan/tokelauan are the closest western dialects that are closest to the eastern ones cause they speak like the rest of us just with the L.
The northern cooks has some tongan/ samoan influence, and southern cooks , more tahiti influence and rest of french polynesia, etc.. , 13 of 15 islands have their own dialects. I grew up listening to my dad speak atiuan to his siblings, aitutaki/ rarotongan to his inlaws , tongan to my mum, and samoan to our neighbours and his friends 😅.
Wow. Dad had a way with words. That’s impressive to know that many languages.
Thanx! He loved languages, I need to learn myself, and think it's awesome when people can speak 2 or more languages, I only speak one, but my parents, up to my great grandparents spoke 2 or 3. I need to catch up! 😩
But one of 2 Island without Dialect has one .In Takutea they speak Miner bird ..The local boy from Havai'i can understanding it.😂😂😂 its a joke I'm sure he it get.
That's where the dead go to..👻

Its so crack up samoans and tongans were so quick to migrate to Hawaii yet there is no real cultural connection its only through marriage and modern migration, Hawaii Maoli, Tahiti Maohi, cook islands Maori, Rapa Nui and Marquesas and New Zealand maori are all intertwined all connected through sea, language and the most beautiful of women in the Pacific islands
@@Kayne-xy8pq that's cos they went the other way Samoan and Tongan connect their historical roots in Melanesian and Micronesia eg. Solomon Islands too Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu, Kapingamarangi and its Sister Island in Micronesia.

There’s dna proof that Micronesians aren’t related genetically to either Melanesians or Polynesians. Micronesians are the only people in Oceania with zero new Britain Papua ancestry, that means they aren’t of Oceania (the pacific) because all Melanesians and Polynesians have new Britain Papuan ancestry.
They traced Micronesians ancestry to Indonesia, it’s so conclusive that they even know specifically where in Indonesia Micronesians originated (Sulawesi).
This means Micronesians are Asians who migrated into Oceania, but are not oceanian genetically.
@@The.Hawaiian.Kingdom There are two islands in Micronesia Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro
Which were settled by Polynesian voyagers from The North Cook Islands, Tokelau and Tuvalu that who I was referring too when I made my comment.
There alot Polynesian outliers and these are the two that are located in Micronesia.

I’m aware of the paper you’re referring to, however it wasn’t peer reviewed and it’s “abstract” meaning it’s just someone’s theory, there’s no incontrovertible proof to back it.
None the less, even if we assume this persons theory is correct, the theory wasn’t that it was settled by Polynesians, it never mentioned a settlement, only a migration and that goes along with what we already know, which is that Polynesians traveled into Micronesian for trade (so did Melanesians), but left.
Essentially all of Micronesian aboriginals were of Asian ancestry (Indonesians from Sulawesi) and lacked new Britain Papuan ancestry (Papuan ancestry is the key of what makes someone oceanian or Pacific Islander, all of us have NB Papuan ancestry, except Micronesians), and this includes Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro, they have the same Indonesian ancestry, that’s where all Micronesians originated.
This is why Polynesian and Melanesian languages are only considered a “subgroup” of the austronesian language family, both Polynesians and Melanesian languages existed prior to exposure to Austronesian speakers. Polynesians and Melanesians had to learn some Austronesian words in order to trade with people who spoke Austronesian languages and so our languages have some Austronesian mixed into it because of that, but we aren’t truly of the Austronesian language family.
Essentially what happened in Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro (which are atolls btw, not islands) is they were the same Asians from Indonesia that populate the rest of Micronesia and trade migrations from Melanesia and Polynesia came through and at some point someone(s) slept with them. It’s a genetic admixture and not necessarily present in everyone, whereas their origin ancestry is present in everyone.
For example, if a white man went there and slept with someone, it doesn’t make everyone there white, they’re still Indonesians, it’s just that white mans descendants who have some white ancestry. The presence of Polynesian language is most likely prevalent because of proximity, it most likely where trade occurred the most, so the people there learned the language to be able to trade and vice versa.
Essentially they are Indonesian and the Melanesians and Polynesian found in some people is just an admixture.
The mangarongaro/hararanga/Tongareva
Dialect adopted the letter 'L' but they can speak with 'R'.
The southern dialect removed the letters 'H' and 'F'. But their dialect was exactly like the tuamotu dialect. Europeans corrupted the Southern dialect when they write it.
Other way around. They spell with R but say L.
They adopted the L😂
Why does he sound so hot
Bra
braaaaaaaaaa what
