Some of these guys can probably lift more than the heaviest atlas stone.
Is the Tahitian language like the Hawaiian's, very few speak it and are being taught in Hawaiiana schools??
Yes. Very similar to Hawaiian...It is considered a part of the Austronesian language group.
Maori, Cook Islands, Hawaiian and Tahitian, Rapa Nui languages are very similar.
No, very different.
Tahitian isn’t in the same situation as the Hawaiian language.
160kg, 350+ lbs stone up on your shoulders. Yea go try that.
Christianity has destroyed much the native cultures around the world. I am glad that Tahitians were able to save some of their culture. The dancing is very beautiful.
Yah dis Mr. Coby Garrido..but my real name is Monte..okay bye...lol..
They need to stop using french language. And start using tahitian instead
They speak both, even English so you got it all.
Exactly. You can't proclaim to be proud of your culture and heritage when you can only speak your colonizers language

Lmao I don’t know who told you the bullshit that you’re believing but the Tahitian language is just fine.
@@onyx081 Why are you shaming them for something that's not their fault? They don't need your approval. It's in their blood, their mana, their tupuna. One can still be proud without being fluent in the language. What a arrogant, discriminate, and imperialistic comment to make for someone who isn't even Maohi! Colonial mindset much!
we still speak our language and i am a fluent speaker in maohi.
They speak French, so I'm thinking they took their native language away.
A great comment from someone who is educated on the matter further down in the commnets:
Manoa: Majority of people in Tahiti can speak Tahitian. It’s not a Hawaii situation.
In fact, Polynesian culture is much more preserved in Tahiti because unlike Western Polynesian countries who are devout Protestants, you still have people worshipping the Polynesian gods in Tahiti and doing traditional ceremonies on marae (temples) and celebrating traditional Polynesian holidays like Matari’i i ni’a, Heiva and Matari’i i raro.
There’s the news in Tahitian, Tahitian is taught in all schools too.
But unlike Tonga or Samoa, we have more than 1 native language in French Polynesia.
Maybe not judge a whole culture by one video only without even having knowledge of the actual situation?
we still speak our native tongue it has never been lost. I speak it fluently as well as the rest of my family.
