    I was raised in Tonga. My first language is Tongan then English. Moved to the states and it's been a long time, I needed something to refresh my memory and my speech. This is an excellent app for that ❤️✌️ But I'm also interest in other Polynesia language like Samoan, because there's ALOT of Samoans coming through my work.

    Only went through the Samoan language set, but from a glance it offers a basic start to the language. A few famous quotes ive heard throughout my life, and the english translations with spoken Samoan words are a nice touch.
