Did you know?

The pronoun koe is strictly for people of equal or lower status, making the phrase inappropriate for elders or chiefs.
Tongan is part of the Austronesian language family, making it a distant relative of languages spoken in Madagascar and the Philippines.
Tongan speakers must choose different pronouns based on whether the speaker is included in the group being addressed, a concept called 'inclusive' and 'exclusive' pronouns.
