    Mate is also the word for "to die" in Kapampangan, indigenous people in central Luzon Philippines, "makamate" to kill or killer - depends on how you say it, "mete" died.

    You lack education toko , I’m Tongan and even I know that Polynesians descend from Melanesians which literally translates to “black islanders” look up the first king of Tonga he’s dark and looks black. Fiji and Tonga are literally next to each other yet we let the white man tell us we not brothers ? I found out I’m related to Prince Enele Maafu a Prince of Tonga and Chief of Fiji. So yeah bro do ya homework we not from Taiwan or America . We came from Africa thru Papua New Guinea than into Oceania

    Wrong. Wrong. Wrong! " Nobody knew anything before colonisers ..." This so very wrong. Indigenous people of Polynesia had their own indigeous knowledge system. What the Western colonizers did was to destroy this knowledge system and Indigenous people came to undervalue this knowledge an adopted western knowledge.
