Is Tongan and Samoan the same?
No! They're two completely different ethnic groups. Samoans are from a country called
'Samoa' in the South Pacific, hence the word 'South Pacific' (Australasia) meaning Samoans come from a different continent from where Africans are from.
Basically comparing a Samoan to an African is like comparing the English to the Chinese.
Obviously, they're not the same.
How to make a umu, okay then, first you make a blazing fire and then you cover the fire with volcano rocks. While the volcano rock are heating up the women are in the kitchen getting all the food ready like peeling the taro and the green banana and cutting up the pua'a (pork) and going up the road to buy some coconut cream.

Malo soifua teine aulelei. Edit: "Hello baby" translates literally to "Talofa Pepe" (Talofa - Hello; Pepe - Baby), but using the word "pepe" just doesn't have the right feel in the context it's said in, so perhaps in translating the idea/meaning, we could instead say, "Talofa Pele", which translates to "Hello Dear".
