One day I will know at least one language from every continent. Fijian is the Oceanian language that I want to learn the most.

Check out facebook, there are pages and groups on the Fijian language and culture like this one called "Domo ni Vanua e Aotearoa" although it's mostly meant for Fijians living in NZ.

I just heard people of Rwanda speaking and I noticed similarities in their language with Austronesian languages and here I notice it too. Because it's spoken soft and fluently, no staccato sounds, many soft consonants , no throat sounds, often short syllables with one consonant and one vowel.

I remember hearing some of my Fijian Indian friends speaking in Fijian, mostly when they are discussing something they don't want others to hear or know. It was pretty cool.
It sounds similar to Micronesian languages

I'm Fijian but from Gau and Labasa and they are in Fiji these are the island names where my dad comes from in Fiji and mom
Fijian kinda sounds like Bisaya (2nd most spoken Language in the Philippines)
sounds a lot like tagalog to me. I speak a malayo-polynesian language, and so it sounded like I could understand what she's saying, but it doesn't make sense to me.

Haha it does! Sounds Indonesian... From Madagascar through Indonesia & Philippines then through Melanesia Micronesia and Polynesia all the way to Easter Islands .. All of those lands have languages in the Austronesian lingual family. Pretty interesting huh?

+Neville Longbottom LOL. We're long lost cousins ^^ That is why our languages sound so familiar. We both speak Malayo-Polynesian languages. I had an Indonesian friend and whenever she was on the phone, I swore she was speaking Fijian, but in gibberish. AHAHA.
