In Samoa when you go to school and you try to wag class or do something stupid in class you get a hiding from the teacher and trust me it hurts a lot.

In samoa we don't have to sit in the front if we have a pickup(Ford ranger)we can sit at the back and enjoy the view and fresh air.

On Sunday we are not aloud to play because in the bible it says god reasted on the 7th day which would be Sunday.if we play on a Sunday we will get a hiding and warned not to do it again.

The samoan name for the rugby and leauge team is
Manu Samoa for rugby
and
Toa Samoa for leauge.

1) in samoa it is bad luck to sing and whistle at night.
2)samoan language is very similar to other pacific languages such as, tokelauan, tuvaluan, and tongan.
3)buses have loud music. people with no seats sit on other people.
4)instead of the government owning the land, the locals get to own their land and do whatever they want with it.
5) it is a common thing for samoans to have pigs and other animals roaming around the outside of a house
6) girls are usually told to wear lavalava's around the house/street. on special occasions such as church, they wear a traditional dress, puletasi.
7) samoans have strong respect for village chiefs. talking back or doing anything to anger them is instant disrespect and bad luck
8)kids are not to play on a sunday
9)every sunday after church, samoan family have a feast, or in samoan to'ona'i
a few samoan phrases/words:
_ talofa lava (formal) = hello

There is a rule in Samoa on a Sunday and that rule is to not play on a Sunday.Because if you play on a Sunday you will be running away from your mum and trust me our mums are supinely fast. Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

100% adults can read in samoa.
Samoa is divided into Western Samoa and American Samoa.
English is spoken in more educated areas.
