About this app

This app is a tool to learn, pronounce, spell and speak the Sāmoan Language. This is also the contribution of the Si’ufofoga ‘o le Laumua Trust to grow, maintain and retain the Sāmoan Language. Producing this app is a great innovative way for people to learn & speak the Samoan language. When swiping your finger across a letter, word, or sentence in the Samoan language on this app, you can hear how to say and pronounce the same. We have used the original spelling of the Samoan words with Glottal stop and macron as found in the early publications of the Samoan Bible. This will greatly assist second language learners with the pronunciation of vowels and words.

Ratings and reviews

Great app to learn the mother language. Helps getting back to fa‘asāmoa. It is a fantastic starting point for anyone looking to reconnect with their heritage, practice the vocabulary, and confidently learn the roots of our culture.

Very helpful! Absolutely love it. I feel closer to my culture learning more of my family's language. I makes it easier to communicate with my family still on the islands. Would love to see a section for names of animals.

Very good app, easy to learn and easy to use.
