    In Fiji we have the same, similar and exact culture. We say Tilou or Tulou ( if not , get ready to get the sasa😂). Whistling in the night too( I remember when I did that and my mom yelled at me " you want the dead people to come and take you away?"🤣🤣. Also greeting others even if you don't know them ..just Say Bula! With the smile will give a good day 😁😍.

    I was a PC volunteer 1979-1983 for the TEPB, commuting between Nuku'alofa and 'Eua. Your video was my first glimpse of modern Tonga. I had to laugh at the trick of picking up a rock--it's nice some things have not changed.

    I just found out about Polynesians saying _tulou_ . We do the same in Chuuk, Micronesia but we say it like _tirow_ . If you walk between people sitting/standing, crouch forward and pass while saying _tirow_ . Your mom gonna be mad at you if you don’t. She didn’t raise you like that lol

    Just a thought if we got the word “tulou” from the english word “too low” coz we’re trying to lower ourselves in a way of showing respect to those who are sitting or older person/s standing?

    • @mauricegioseffi7623
      @mauricegioseffi7623 3 роки тому

      We were taught that as a mnemonic device--the door to traditional Tongan fales require you bend down to enter, and of course, you said, too low.

    I think Tonga would be a great place to go serve and help people. People seem wonderful from there. But a big worry is how the bathrooms would work.
    How to people use the bathroom in Tonga? It seems like its based on... the household and tribe what you have? And how do you stay healthy with that kind of system? Is toilet paper going to be non-existent?
    Easier to ask this to someone I'll never see.
