Gagana Samoa

Talofa.  That's hello in Samoan. This is a basic introduction to the Samoan language (Gagana Samoa). These pages will provide information about the Samoan language for the casual speakers who are traveling to Samoa or wanting to converse with Samoan friends and relatives. That's my goal and I hope you'll find it useful.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions to improve this page.  Press to contact me.

Listed below are summaries of words for ready reference. I've also listed English words and their Samoan equivalents on the following page.
