  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ธ.ค. 2020
  • During the 2020 National Indigenous Speech Competition in Nantou County, Taiwan, we interviewed a student from the Saisiyat tribe, who agreed to share a little of her native language. Taiwan has 16 indigenous Austronesian languages that are actually taught in public schools to indigenous students, and they hold language contests to reward and motivate students.

    before chinese invasion, taiwan is the land of austronesian people.
    as an indonesian and fellow austronesian language speaker, i feel so happy that austronesian people in taiwan still try hard to preserve their tradition.

      Austronesians wiped out South East Asia's indigenous peoples, the black people. You are the invaders. Ask the indigenous people of Philippines.

      Yes, Austronesians are connected.
      The original tribes of Taiwan, Filipinos, Malaysians, Borneos, Indonesains, Malagasy, Polynesians, Melanesians, and Micronesians share the same Austronesian roots.

      It was not Chinese invasion. It was Dutch invasion and they brought in Chinese workers. It is important to get facts right.

      Bila mereka mengatakan teori datang dari yunnan atau taiwan.. bukan bermaksud austronesian berbangsa cina.. ada beberapa puak yang berhijrah.. satu puak, turun kebawah yang sekarang kita panggil austronesian.. satu lagi puak menetap di tanah besar china yang membentuk empayar han.. austronesia bukan sebahagian dari bangsa cina.. cuma puak yang menetap di tanah besar china membentuk tamadun puak han..
      Satu lagi puak turun ke thailand, semenanjung dan borneo.. selalu org beranggap apabila teori turun dari yunnan atau taiwan, semua akan beranggapan bahawa austronesian adalah sama cina.. bukan jgn salah faham..
      Puak yg sama dengan cina adalah korea dan jepun.. dan teori dari yunnan dan taiwan mcm tidak tepat.. teori sundaland lebih tepat.. austronesian dari sundaland berhijrah apabila benua mereka mula karam.. ada yang lari ke taiwan.. bukan asal taiwan..
      Kita tidak pernah sama budaya dengan cina.. cuma korea dan jepun sahaya sama budaya.. bagaimana mungkin kita datang dari taiwan tapi tidak ada langsung budaya cina dalam austronesian?.. polynesian adalah serumpun dengan austronesian..

    Greetings from Tonga 🇹🇴 Deep in the South over the Seas. We Polynesians are proud and excited for our long estranged cousins up North. We along with our brothers in Samoa, Tahiti, Hawaii, Fiji, Vanuatu, and the Maoris in Aotearoa (NZ) etc are one big family over the Oceans. I guess we're the more "Oceanic" of the Austronesian Superfamily. I been reading about Tagalo in the Philippines and it is scary how the languages especially keywords are similar.
    As for her recitals...the only words I can relate:
    Yaba - Tamai - Father
    Aehae - Taha (Tongan) - One
    Rosa - Lua/Ua (Tonga/Samoa) - Two
    Too - Tolu - Three
    Sopat - Faa - Four
    Lima - Nima- Five (Someone suggested Lima in the Comments).

Often a couple's first child was brought up by grandparents or adopted by one of the brothers or sisters of a parent, but almost always the foster child was a blood relation, usually a close relation. This practice continues today, but inheritance of land and property is not clear-cut. Sometimes the foster child would be entitled to inherit the foster father's property, especially if a child was adopted at birth and remained with the foster parents through to adulthood and looked after the adopted parent(s) in their old age. In this case the foster child would share the interests with any natural children. The rights of a foster child might be modified if an ōhākī (bequest) by the foster father had been made. Foster children always knew who their natural parents were.

    Austronesian language family is the largest spoken language family in South East Asia, Melanesia, Micronesia and the Polynesia. The reason being could be that this language family is easy to learn than the other native languages. For this reason some countries such as Papua New Guinea (Hiri Motu) and Indonesia (Bahasa) are official languages under their constitution of their respective countries. Bahasa and Hiri Motu are members of Austronesian family of languages. It is worth noting that Indonesia and Papua New Guinea have many tribal languages. In Papua New Guinea is about 800 languages according to government's official record. Linguistic experts can elaborate more on the evolution of languages in the South East Asia and the Pacific.

The majority of the Ami population belong to Y-chromosome haplogroup O, which is the most common haplogroup among the Austronesian-speaking populations of Taiwan, such as the Atayal and Paiwan. The most common subclade of haplogroup O among the Ami is O3a2b-P164, which is also found in other Austronesian-speaking populations in Taiwan, the Philippines, and Indonesia. Other common Y-chromosome haplogroups among the Ami include C-M130, D-M174, and K-M9.

    The goodbye Pil'awan somewhat resembles Tagalog which is Paalam with a glottal stop too. I think linguists can reform out glottal stop writing with '. For example Pa'alam is much clearer to read than Paalam

      We do use the (') and accent marks (Á) but over the years they have been dropped and even spellings are being changed like
      (Na sa) turned into (nasa) .these factors makes writing Tagalog a lot harder

      The Taiwanese language family are in a different branch. All Filipino languages have more similarities to Samoan or Hawaiian than in Taiwan, so that’s why you won’t be able to understand the language. Maybe except for the Tao language.

That's why I think a southeast Asian like me might be called "Asian with Melanin". im Minangkabau people, In my people, many have slanted eyes and yellow skin too especially in the highlands where the Minangkabau originally came from whereas I am a coastal person whose area is hot so that my skin turns brown Coupled with Tamil Influence from the past when Hinduism was still victorious in my homeland.
