from the native songs, and by putting down , in very nu merous instances, the same word in its various uses as a

noun , and a verb, and an adjective.

In consulting its pages, the following remarks should be borne in mind : All adjectives may have a verbal form

by merely adding the verbal particles : as, lelei, good ; ua lelei, it is good . This is also the case with many nouns : as, maʻi, a disease ; ua maʻi, he is ill ; and, vice

versâ , verbs may be made into nouns by adding the ar ticle, or by introducing the possessive pronoun : as sau, to come; sau , a coming, - 0 lona luai sau. Often,

however , such nouns are distinguished by an affix , such as ga , saga, or taga.

Very many words, and even parts of sentences, will take the causative faa, and the qualifying particle faale,

before them . Ofwords so compounded, comparatively a few only will be found, since a very little knowledge of the language will enable a learner to find out the shade

of meaning superadded to the original word by those prefixes.

It should also be borne in mind that, although in those words in which two or more of the same vowels

come together, a break, or palatal sound almost like a k , occurs in pronunciation ; yet we have in such cases omit

of the break. Wehaye omitted it in these instances to

LETTERS. The Samoan Alphabet consists of only fourteen letters:-- a, e, i, o, u ; f, g , l, m , n, p, s.it, v. a is pronounced

Ist, long, as in father ; pā, wall. 3rd, very short, nearly like ú ; as, inăte,măliu, văve (vuve). 2nd , rather short, as in mat ; påti limá.

é, i, o, u , as in the Continental languages.

g (nga), is always nasal, as ng in sing . 1 (la ), the same as in English , except when preceded by either a, o, or ů , and followed by i, when it is pronounced by most natives as a soft r ,

almost approaching to a d sound , for which it is substituted, in similar circumstances, in the pronunciation of New Zealand words- (kidikidi,

written kirikiri) : aliuli, provounced ariari.

s, is not quite so sibilant as in English . The other letters, f, m , n , p, t, v, called fa,mo, nu , pi, ti, vi, are pro nounced as in English . In addition to these, there is a sound something between h and k , for

which it is substituted. This has been represented by an inverted comina, In our printed books, however, to save trouble , they are only used when required to distinguish words spelt in the same way , as in the case of the

pronouns loʻu , my, and lou , thy, & c. Two similar vowels cannot occur together without a break between . When they would come together in forming new words, or in cominencing a word with the vowel which terminates the preceding word , and with

Samoan Grammar. which it stands in close connection , they are pronounced by a single im . pulse of the voice, as one long vowel : as, tagatā nun ; aiofu atu , alofātu . A few cases occur of the coalescence of different vowels , as ma ona , for him , pronounced mõna . Every letter is distinctly sounded , so that there are no improper diph thongs. No two consonants can come together without a vowel between . Many Samoans are exceedingly careless and incorrect in the pronunci. ation of consonants, and even exchange or transpose consonants with out confusion , and almost unnoticed by their hearers, as mānu for nāinu,

lagoga for lagona ; but they are very particular about the pronunciation of the vowels.

The only foreign letters which have been introduced are h , k, and r ;

used in writing proper names and foreign names for things for which no appropriate Samoan word could be found. In some cases, they change k into s ; as Sapai for Hapai.

SYLLABLES. Every syllable must end in a vowel. No syllable can consist of more

than three letters ; as fai,mai, tau . Accent. The general rule is, that the accent is on the penultima; but to this there are exceptions : as, O loo i Safotú ; su Muliagá .

In speaking , the voice is raised , and the emphasis falls on the lastword When a word receives an addition , by means of an affixed particle , the accent is shifted forward : as, alófa, alofága, alofugía .' in each sentence.

Reduplicated words have two accents : as, palapála , ségiségi.

WORDS.

1. THE ARTICLE.

The article le is both definite and indefinite ; at least, it is constantly used by the natives where the English would require the indefinite article : as, o le alii Pai, such a one is a chief ; O le Atua, God, is definite.

Samoan Grannar. Se is always indefinite : Ta mai se laau, cutme a stick. Proper names in the nominative case take 'o before them (with the break ) : as, ' O Tagaloa , ' O Toya ; but ' O le Toga , would mean a Tonga man .

The plural nominative takes or omits 'o : o tagata, or simply , tagata. With a noininative absolute, it always takes it; and before each of a list of things, if without the conjunction ; as, O le mulauli; o le anae,olé filoa, ma i'u uma lava .

When the nominative follows the verb, it is mostly o.ni.ted , except after verbs preceded by ona : as, Va pauu umamai laau . 2. Nouxs. Gender is sometimes expressed by distinct names : O le alii, a chief.

O le tamaitai, a lady :

O le tane, a man .

le fafine, a female. O le matuā mua , a hen .

O le tama, a boy . O le toa , a cock .

( le teine, a girl.

O le poʻa, a male animal. O le manu fafine, a female animal.

When no distinct name exists, the gender of animals is known by add

ing poʻa and fafine: The Plural is known 1. By the omission of the article.

2. By particles denoting multitude, and is then emphatic: o le au ia, a shoal of fish ; o le vao tagata, (literally) a forest of men ; & le mou mea , a great number of things.

3. By lengthening (properly , doubling) a vowel in the word : as, tuafāfine, sisters of a brother. Case is formed by prepositions : as, Plurat:

Sing. N . " O le alii G . o and a le alii D . i le alii, to

i alii.

V . le alii e !

Ab. e and i le alii, by and in

o and i alii, by and in . mai, from .

mai, from

Proper names are declined as the plural, except the accusative and dative, which tahe iã : Fai atu iā Sina, & c .

Some nouns are derived from verbsby the addition of ga, suga, tuga , & c.

as, tuli, to drive, tuliga, a driving; luluu, to fill the hand, luutaga , handful; anu, to spit, anusaga, spiuile.

ua lelei, it is good . This is also the case with many nouns : as, ma'i , a disease ; ua maʻi, he is ill ; and, vice versâ, verbs may be made into noạns by adding the ar ticle, or by introducing the possessive pronoun : as sau ,

to come; sau , a coming, 0 lona luai sau. Often, however , such nouns are distinguished by an affix , such as ga, saga, or taga. Very many words, and even parts of sentences, will take the causative faa, and the qualifying particle faale,

Samoan Grammat. 3. ADJECTIVES. Some adjectives are formed from nouns by the addition of a - like y in English ; as word, wordy; seed , seedy :- thus, eleele,dirt, eleelea, dirty ; pálapála , mud, pálapalā, muddy ; or by doubling the word : as, pona , a

knot, pónapóna, knotty . The plural is sometimes distinguished by doubling a syllable : as, sina ,

white, pl. sisinu. Comparison is generally effected by using two adjectives, both in a po sitive state : thus, E lelei lenei, a e leaga lela, this is good , but that is bad - i.e, not in itself, but in comparison with the other. The superlative is formed by the addition ofan adverb : such as,matuā , tasi, sili, silisili ese, & c. : Uu lelei tasi, it alone is good ; or, nothing equals it. Ua matuā silisili ona lelei, it is very exceedingly good .

Numerals and ordinals. These are : Cardinals .

E tasi, one.

E E E E E E E

E sefulu , ten .

E sefulu ma le tasi, eleven .

lua, two: tolú , three. fa , four. lima, five. ono, six . ftu , seven . valú , eight.

E II E E E E E

E iva , nine.

lua fulu , twenty . tolu gafulu , thirty . fa gafulu , forty . selau, one hundred . lua lau , two hundred . tolu galau , three hundred . afe , a thousand .

Some say mano is used for ten thousand , but it is doubtful whether itmeans any more than a very great number.

Ordinals:

O long lua, or le lua, second. O le muamua, first. And so on , adding ga to the others : as, 0 le limaga masina.

The numeral adverbs, once , twice, & c., are expressed by atu : thus, o le utu lua, twice. Also by prefixing faa : as, Ua ou sau faalua.

The cardinalsmay either precedeor follow their noun : thus, O mea e lua , or e luu mea , two articles. Very many things are counted each in its own peculiar way. A know

ledge of this is absolutely necessary, as being always used by the native ; and also to prevent mistakes : thus, to say, 0 < a e luu lau , instead of

meaning two hundred, would only mean two. The following are the principal forms: Men are counted by prefixing toʻa : e toatasi , 1 ; e toatinoagafulu , 10. Young pigs and cocoanuts , by suffixing oa, or in couples : as, e lua oa, 4 ; e fa gaoa , 8. The odd one being expressed separately : thus, o popo e ono gaoa ma le popo e tasi, 13. Cocoanuts by the score, thus : e seaea , 20 ; e luā ea , 40 ; e tolu gaea, 60. Fowls , breadfruit, and someshell- fish : e tasi, 1 (as often with other things); e lua fua ,-2 ;- e tolu gafua , 3 ; e fuāgafulu , 10 ; e fua lua , 20 ; e fua se Thu, 100 Crayfisli : wlien ten , e tu 'eagafulu ; turelua , 20 .

Samóan Grammar.

Fish : e lua lau, 2 ; e tolu galau, 3; e lau agafulu, 10; e láu lua, 20; e lau selau , 100 ; e lau lua lau , 200 ; e lau afe, 1,000 . Bonito (not called iʻa by Samoans) : o atu e lua tino , 2 bonitos; e tinoaga fulu , 10. . . : e lua mata, 2 ; e matāgafulu , 10 ; e matalua, 20 , & c. Taro

Yams: units as cocoanuts, tens as bananas. Bananas : le cau faʻi, 1 bunch (or stem ); e lua “au, 2 bunches ; e "au aga fulu , 10 ; e au lua, 20 . Masi, in round cakes or balls (potoi): e potoi agafulu , 10 . in flat cakes : afi agafulu , 10 .

SYNTAX . THE ARTICLE

0. RULE 1. -- Every noun , word , or sentence standing as a nominative ab . solute requires the 'o before it ; thus, ' O lona faatoa sau lenei, this is the first time he has come.

Exceptions.— 1. It is omitted after the conjunction ma : 'O alii ma fuipule.

2. Before nominatives following the verb it may be omitted : as, Ua ligoligo le ulufunua .

3. In poetry, it is often omitted : - Fagaliima Selea le fanua.” — Muliau ia Tuu.

Rule 2.- Verbs preceded by ona and followed by lea take an 'o before the noininative : as, Ona tagi lea “o Sina . Le.

Le is often indefinite : thus, o le ali o ia , he is a chief.

It is omitted in the adverbial expression i falē , in the house , or inside. Se .

This article is rather sparingly used . Its chief use is in regard to things unknown or future : E te se Amoa ea ? are you an Amoan ?

ame . nc i to se matagiſetaua‘i." - f'iiga vii. 10 .

Sumoan Grammar. 65 A se alii, avane lona suafa ." - - Muliau ia Tuu .

- (If it should be a man child , give him his title).

The Article as a Pronoun . O le Atua lē fetalai mui, it is God who is speaking ; properly , le e fer talai mai, the [one] speaking. “ O le Tupu o tupu, o afio i le lagi.” — Viiga i. -- ( The King of kings, who dwells in heaven ).

NOUNS. The singular is sometimes used for the plural: 1, In nouns ofmultitude : Ua o mai le nuu , the people are come. 2 , Where one stands for a class:

E fausalaina lē pagotā , the ill-doer will be punished . Apposition. The 'o before the second name is dropped : as, O Iesu , le Alii, Jesus, the Lord .

Exceptions. If the office precedes the name, then both have it : O le alii, o Malietoa , the chief, Malietoa.

Nominative. The noun usually follows the verb : Ua sau le tamaloa, the man is come.

When it precedes the verb , it is usually emphatic , and requires to be followed by a pronoun after the verb : thus “ Filoilupo ma Lemaluosamca, Avatu i laua e faima oso." - - Lagisolo ia Tato.

- (F . and L., take them for food on the journey).

Nouns standing in apposition, whatever case the firstmay be in , all the subsequent ones are in the nominative ; as, Na e tugi i lau tane, o le gogo sina .

Genitive. This is indicated by the prepositions a or o (soft). As to which of these should be used , as well as the pronouns lou , lau , lona , Inna , lo and la

mutou , & c ., it is difficult for a foreigner to know . There is no general rule which will apply to every case.

The goveruing noun decides which

should be used : thus, manau o le tino ; but amiigo a le tino ; upu o Fagono ; but upu a tuguta. The following hints may serve in some measure to guide as to which some classes of nouns govern : I. O is used with

1. Nouns denoting parts of the body : fofoga o le alii, eyes of the chief. So of hands, legs, hair , & c. ; except the beard, which takes a . 2 . The mind and its affections : o le toasa o le alii. So of the

will, desire, love, fear, & c.

Samoan Grammar. which it stands in close connection , they are pronounced by a single im pulse of the voice, as one long vowel: as, tagatā nuu ; aiofu atu , alofātu . A few cases occur of the coalescence of different vowels, as ma ona , for

him , pronounced mõna.

Every letter is distinctly sounded , so that there are no improper diph thongs. No two consonants can come together without a vowel between .

Many Samoans are exceedingly careless and incorrect in the pronunci

ation of consonants, and even exchange or transpose consonants with out confusion , and almost unnoticed by their hearers, as manu for näinu ,

lagoga for lagona ; but they are very particular about the pronunciation

of the vowels. The only foreign letters which have been introduced are h, k, and r ; used in writing proper names and foreign names for things for which no appropriate Samoan word could be found. In some cases, they change h into s ; as Sapai for Hapai.

SYLLABLES .

Every syllable must end in a vowel. No syllable can consist of more than three letters ; as fai,mai, tau . Accent.

The general rule is, that the accent is on the penultima ; but to this there are exceptions : as, O loo i Safotú ; su Muliaga . In speaking , the voice is raised , and the emphasis falls on the last word

in each sentence.

When a word receives an addition, by means of an affixed particle, the accent is shifted forward : as, alófa , alofága, alofugía . Reduplicated words have two accents : as, palapála, ségiségi.

WORDS.

1. The ARTICLE.

The article le is both definite and indefinite ; at least, it is constantly used by the natives where the English would require the indefinite article : as, o le alii Pai, such a one is a chief; O le Atua, God, is definite .

Samoan Grammar .

Še is always indefinite : Ta mai se laau, cutme a stick. Proper names in the nominative case take 'o before them (with the break ) : as, 'O Tayaloa , ' O Toya ; but “O le Toga, would mean a Tonga man . The plural nominative takes or omits 'o : o tagata , or simply , tagata . With a noininative absolute, it always takes it ; and before each of a list of things, ifwithout the conjunction : as, O le malauli; o le anae,olé filoa , mu i' a uma lava .

When the nominative follows the verb , it is mostly o.ni.ted , except after verbs preceded by ona : as, Va pauu uma mai laau .

2. Nouns.

Gender is sometimes expressed by distinct names : O le alii, a chief.

O le tamaitai, a ladyj: , le fafine, a female. ( le teine, a girl. . O le matuā mua , a hen . O le toa , a cock. O le poʻa, a male animal. O le manu fafine , a female animal.

O le tane, a man . O le tama, a boy .

When no distinct name exists, the gender of animals is known by add ing poʻa and fafine. The Plural is known 1. By the omission of the article . 2. By particles denoting multitude, and is then emphatic : o le au i'a , a shoal of fish ; o le vao tagata , (literally ) a forest of men ; º le mou mea , a great number of things.

3. By lengthening (properly, doubling ) a vowel in the word : as,

tuafāfine, sisters of a brother. Case is formed by prepositions: as, Sing. N . "O le alii G . o and a le alii D . i le alii, to

mo and ma le alii, for A . i le alii V . le alii e !

Ab .e and i le alii, by and in mai, from

Plural:

bo alii or alii. o or a alii . i alii , to .

mo or ma alii, for. i alii . alii e !

e and i alii, by and in :

mai, from .

Proper names are declined as the plural, except the accusative and dative, which tahe iă : Fai atu iā Sina , fc. Some nouns are derived from verbs by the addition of ga, suga, tuga , & c. as, tuli, to drive, tuligu , a driving ; luluu , to fill the hand, luutaga , the handful ; anu, to spit, anusagu , spillle .

Samoan Grammar.

3. ADJECTIVES. Some adjectives are formed from nouns by the addition of a - like y in English ; as word , wordy ; seed , seedy:- thus, eleele, dirt, eleelea , dirty ; palapála ,mud, pálapalā , muddy; or by doubling the word : as, pona , a

knot, pónapona,knotty . The plural is sometimes distinguished by doubling a syllable: as, sina, white, pl. sisinu. Comparison is generally effected by using two adjectives , both in a po sitive state : thus, E lelei lenei, a e leaga lela , this is good, but that is bad - i.e, not in itself, but in comparison with the other. The superlative is formed by the addition of an adverb : such as,matuā,

tasi, sili, silisili ese, & c.: Vu lelei tasi, it alone is good ; or, nothing equals it. Ua matuā silisili ona lelei, it is very exceedingly good .

Numerals and ordinals. These are : Cardinals. E tasi, one. E E E E E

lua , two. tolu , three. fa , four. lima, five. ono, six .

E fitu , seven .

E -sefulu , ten . E sefulu ma le tasi, eleven . E lua fulu , twenty . I tolu gafulu , thirty . E fa gafulu , forty . E selau , one hundred . E lua lau , two hundred .

E tolu galau, three hundred . E valu , eight. E afe, a thousand. E iva , nine. Some say mano is used for ten thousand, but it is doubtful whether it means any more than a very great number . Ordinals:

o le muamua , first. O long lua, or le lua, second . And so on , adding ga to the others : as, o le limaga masina .

The numeral adverbs, once, twice, & c., are expressed by atu : thus, o le utu lua, twice. Also by prefixing faa : as, Va ou sau faalua .

The cardinals may either precede or follow their noun : thus, O mea e lua , or e lua mea, two articles. Very many things are counted each in its own peculiar way. A know

ledge of this is absolutely necessary, as being always used by the natives ; and also to prevent mistakes : thus, to say, O ia e luu lau, instead of meaning two hundred, would only mean two. The following are the principal forms: Men are counted by prefixing toʻa : e toatasi; 1 ; e toatinoagafulu , 10. Young pigs and cocoanuts, by suffixing oa , or in couples : as, e lua oa , 4 ; e fa gaoa , 8 . The odd one being expressed separately : thus, o popo e" ono gaoa ma le popo e tasi, 13 . Cocoanuts by the score, thus : e seaea , 20 ; e luā ea, 40 ; e tolu gaea, 60 . Fowls,-breadfruit , and someshell-fish : etasi, 1 (as often with other things);

e lua fua , 2 ;- e tolu gafua , 3 ; e fuāgafulu, 10 ; e fua lua, 20 ; e fua se lưu, 100:

Crayfish : when ten, & tu 'engafulu ; tuéelua, 20 .

Bonito (not called iʻa by Samoans) : o atu e lua tino, 2 bonitos; e tinoaga fulu , 10 . Taro : e lua mata, 2 ; e matāgafulu , 10 ; e matalua , 20, & c. Yams: units as cocoanuts , tens as bananas. Bananas: le "au faʻi, I bunch (or stem ) ; e lua “au, 2 bunches ; e 'au aga-fulu , 10 ; e au lua , 20 . Masi, in round cakes or balls (potoi): e potoiagafulu, FO. in flat cakes : afi agafulu , 10 .

with strict attention to time, by all present; it is called the talı. I.

Popular songs on passing events ,are , as in other lands, very common . They are sung to the stroke of the paddles when on a journey, or when

engaged on any work requiring united exertion . At the time when religion was beginning to take root, the lovers of

darkness thus expressed their regrets at the prospective loss of their plea : sures : Tini, tinio , tinio ! Maumau o mea faamālama,

SYNTAX .

THE ARTICLE "0.

Rule 1. - Every noun , word , or sentence standing as a nominative ab .

solute requires the "o before it : thus, 'O lona faatoa sau lenei, this is the first time he has come.

Exceptions. - 1. It is omitted after the conjunction ma : ' O alii ma

fuipule. ligoligo le ulufunua..

2. Before nominatives following the verb it may be omitted : as, Va 3. In poetry, it is often omitted :

“ Fagaliima Selea le fanua.” — Muliau ia Tuu . RULE 2. - Verbs preceded by ona and followed by lea take an 'o before the noininative : as, Ona tagi lea ‘o Sina. Le.

Le is often indefinite : thus, o le alii o ia , he is a chief. It is omitted in the adverbial expression i falē, in the house , or inside. Se.

This article is rather sparingly used . Its chief use is in regard to things unknown or future : E te se Amoa ea ? are you an Amoan ? vr nc i to se matagifetaua‘i." -- l'iiga vii. 10 .

15

Sumoan Grammar. ? A se alii, avane lona suafa ." -- Muliau ia Tuu . - (1f it should be a man child , give him his title) .

The Article as a Pronoun. O le Atua lë fetalai mui, it is God who is speaking ; properly , le e fe talai mai, the [one] speaking . “ O le Tupu o tupu , o afio i le lagi." — Viiga i. ---( The King of kings, who dwells in heaven ).

Nouns. The singular is sometimes used for the plural: 1, In nouns ofmultitude : Ua o mui le nuu , the people are come. 2 , Where one stands for a class :

E fausaluina lē pagotā , the ill- doer will be punished .

Apposition .

The 'o before the second name is dropped : as, O Iesu, le Alii, Jesus, the Lord .

Exceptions. If the office precedes the name, then both have it : O le alii , o Malietoa , the chief, Malietoa. Nominative. The noun usually follows the verb : Un sau le tamaloa , the man is come.

When it precedes the verb , it is usually emphatic , and requires to be followed by a pronoun after the verb : thus “ Filoilupo ma Lemaluosamca , Avatu i laua e fai ma oso ." - - Lagisolo ia Tato.

- ( F . and L ., take them for food on the journey). Nouns standing in apposition , whatever case the first may be in , all the subsequent ones are in the nominative ; as, Na e tugi i lau tane, o le gogo sina .

Genitive. This is indicated by the prepositions à or o (soft). As to which of these should be used , as well as the pronouns lou , lau , lona, Inna , lo and la mitou , & c ., ir is difficult for a foreigner to know .

There is no general

rule which will apply to every case. The goveruing noun decides which

should be used : thus, manau o le tino ; but amiiga a le tino ; upu o Fagono ; but upu a tuguta . The following hints may serve in some measure to guide as to which some classes of nouns govern : I. O is useil with 1 . Nouns denoting parts of the body : fofoga o lealii, eyes of the chief. So of hands, legs, hair , & c. ; except the beard, which takes a .

2. The mind and its affections: o le toasa o le alii. So of the will, dezire , love, fear, & c.

Some words take either a or o : as manatu , taofi.

Dative.

Mo and ma governing this case , usually signify for : as, Au mai leama a ' u , give that to or for me.

Ma also means, on account of, because : Sau i fule, ma le la , come in , because of the sun .

A peculiar use is, Ou te alu ma aʻu , I will go with me, i.e. I will take it ).

The cause or occasion of a thing is signified by ona o . Accusative. This case mostly follows active verbs.

It is also used in sentences which require the verb to be or to have in translating them : l'a ia te ia le mea , the property [is ] to him , (i.e. he

has it ). Thé prenosition i is often omitted after the verb : as, Lafoai lena mea .

la is used before names of persons : Ona latou fai atu lea ia Sina.

The Vocative sometimes takes the article le : Le alii e ! Le ula e ! butmost commonly It is omitted . The proper place for the yocative is at the commencement of a sentence .

Samoan Grammar.

It is occasionally found (mostly in poetry) in the middle or at the close of the sentence :

“ E , ata tapa fua ia te oe, le Atua e !" - Viiga v . It is often omitted : as, “ Soufuna , Sina, le toma fafine !” When two vocatives are connected by the conjunction ma, it is omitted after the second : " Tui e ma Tui ! ” Sometimes a pronoun is used in such cases : as, “ Alii e, mu outou .”

In poetry, the vocative e is used after verbs and sentences : as, “ Faa tali utu e,” Ablative.

This is governed by mai, nai,ai, from ; “ , into ; e,by (confined mostly to persons), ADJECTIVE .

The adjective follows its noun ; as, O le tagata umi, a tallman.

Numerals. There are different ways of expressing them : thus (besides those already

given ), E tolugafulu i le fu, twenty- four. O le aso lima, the fifth day ; but o le tausuga e fitu , the seventh year. O lona onoya masina lenei, this is her sixth month . Tua and sautua are used to express times, fold : as, O le pa tua lua , a

double wall ; O le ie sautua lasi, a cloth doubled in many folds. . Ta‘i added to the numerals expresses distribution : E taitolu, three to each .

PRONOUNS.

The pronoun before the verb is often emphatic ; and in that case it is repeated after the verb : O i matou nei, o le a ō i matou , we are going ; or, us for us, we are going . When it follows the verb, the 'o of the nom native is usually dropped : Va sese i matou nei, we are in fault . On the contrary , E le toe suu lava

o ia , he will not come again . Euphony seems to direct this usage. The Relative is often understood in Samoan : O le laau lea na aʻu liaiina , that is the plant (which ] I pulled up. In this case the passive termination seems to supply the place of ui. More cominonly it is ex pressed by ai : O le mea lavu lenei nu au manao ui, this is the thing which I wanted .

O le mea lea, therefore , a id Se a le men , wherefore, are always fol lowed by ri after the verb : as, o le mea lea na au sau aia

The Interrogative Pronoun is much used instead of direct negation :

18

Samoan Grammar .

Ou te alu o le a ? what should I go for ? instead of I will not go. E iloa e ai ? who knows? I don 't. "

VERBS

E is used of that which remains the same: as, & pule le Atua ; E lelei le. Atua . But, Q : loo soifua le.Atua ,

Imperative.-- Ina is used in positive commands. Ia is precative . Of ten both are omitted .

* For intensity, the verb is repeated , followed by ia : Alu , ina alu ia , Go, begone ! Alu ia , ina alu !

The future tense is also used as an imperative : E te alu lava oe, go you , or you shall go.

The Infinitive sometimes takes i instead of e : Ou te musu i alu . Participles govern the same case as their verbs.

A peculiar use of o loo is, O loo malolo , he is well. Ua malolo , in an swer to an inquiry , would signify, that he had been ill, but was now re covered .

Passive forms have an active signification when the pronoun precedes : Na matou sailia , we sought.

Many verbs become nouns by adding ga , saga, taga i as, savali, sava ; liga ; tutalo , talosaga ; faauma, faaumatuga. The verb to be is used only at Tutuila : as, E isi sau avă ? It is either

understood or expressed by some phrase in the larger islands : as, Pe ai ea sau avā ?

Uu i fale.

O le tuui o le agasalu , o le oti leu .

In some cases, the verb agrees with its object in number: as, Ua ou tutuli ia i latou ; Ua na fufäsi ia i latou .

Particles . Their position in a sentence. The interrogative ea should not be put far on - generally not farther than from the third to the fifth word : “ Uu afio eu Gogo ? ” Foʻi, a conjunctive and also a qualifying particle , about third or fourth .

Adverbs. The adverb is often expressed by a noun joined to the verb by the con junction : as, Na iä tuutula maimu le ita , he talked angrily, (literally , he · talked with , or in, avger:

19 Samoan Grammar. Sometimes the adverb precedes the verb , butmore commonly it follows:

as, Ua vave oti, he is soon dead. Va savali tualise, he walks quickly. Sometimes it is expressed by two verbs: Uu loa onu sau , he came long

ago, (literally, It is long his coming, or since he came). SITION .

The preposition is omitted after the conjunction i as, & pule o ia i le lagi ma le lalolagi. CONJUNCTION .

A adversative is often followed by a nominative absolute : doau , ou te le alu , but as for me, I will not go.

CHIEFS' LANGUAGE. There is a large number of words used to chiefs and strangers ; and to

use any other when addressing such is equivalent to an insult. These words are never used by a chief speaking of himself. Amongst these are words used according to the rank of the person ad . dressed : e. y . tarsami, to eat, - a respectful term to a “ tulafale ; ” tax mafu — to a chief ; taute -- to the highest chief.

SAMOAN POETRY .

The Samoan has many different kinds of poetical compositions. Metre is altogether unknown ; but the best kinds of poetry are in rhyme. They are mostly responsive ; each verse being con:menced by a few persons,

and is called the usu , the remaining half being taken up in chorus, and

with strict attention to time, by all present; it is called the tuli. Popular songs on passing events are , as in other lands, very common , They are sung to the stroke of the paddles when on a journey, or when

engaged on any work requiring united exertion. At the time when religion was beginning to take root, the lovers of darkness thus expressed their regrets at the prospective loss of their plea : sures :
