I remember watching a New Zealander documentary of a Maori dude who went to Rapa Nui, and throughout it the guy was speaking presumably Maori with them and they'd respond in Rapa Nui. Seems like they understood each other quite well which is interesting.

It's interesting to see what similarities and differences the Polynesian languages have. I wish they got talked about more - they're really beautiful!

Maaori, my faves 👌

Sad to see these languages are endangered/dying. They’re such beautiful languages! Love from Malaysia 🇲🇾 ❤

Great video! - I speak te reo Māori. So it was very cool to see how our language is similar to other Polynesian languages :)

Hi Andy! Please do chibchan south American languages or chocoan languages!

Я думаю между полинезийскими языками и языком айнов есть что то общее. Некоторые слова айны повзаимствовали у австронезийцев,с те в свою очередь передали слова японцам. Японский язык имеет австронезийский субстат и некоторые айнскик слова.

Lima gang! I really like te reo Maori - the Maori language.

Where did you find rapa nui text to speech?

'Cause it is since most Austronesian languages are inside an Asian-Pacific region. But the plurality of the Pacific languages in Melanesia are not Austronesian.

Hi! Just a tip if you want to represent all of the triangle, the three that you've chosen are some of the most closely related. I would recommend something like Rotuman, Samoan, and one of the Eastern languages

Rapanui is more related to rarotonga then the Maori are..the Maori language are a mixture of eastern polynesian languages. Rapanui might as well be another rarotongan dialect.

Maori language is similar to Japanese

Andy already has these languages in his database. Just wait for him to post them because he makes these videos practically on his own. Especially when he switched to a format that also gives background information. He's not a company, give him time.

​@@SKITNICA95 Andy, the owner of the channel, is a guy. The one talking is one of his colleagues/friends. That's why I was confused about why she reads "hello, Andy here", but it's just her reading Andy's script. How am I sure? I followed his now deleted Instagram where he even posted a face reveal. I once asked him why the woman talking in his vids was so good at pronouncing words from Philippine languages. It turns out that she's Filipino like him.

Hawaiian is like, in the middle, on one side you have samoan/tongan and on the other side tahitian, nz maori, cook is maori, Hawaiian and marquesan lie between. Hawaiian like tongan, no r, they use l instead. Aroha, ofa, alofa, aroa, aloha, word for love in nz maori, tongan, samoan, cook is , Hawaiian. Cook island dialects use v instead of w, some languages swap or ditch certain letters, but I reckon once you know one poly language fluently, u can pick up the others, by knowing what letters are used, pronunciation etc..🙂

Hi Andy, I want to inform you when you upload Austronesian languages: Please use Malay instead of Indonesian. Indonesian is a man-made language that didn't exist before the 20th century, meanwhile Malay (not to be confused with Malaysian) is spoken in Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore and Indonesia, so it is more neutral. Thank you for reading, I hope you have a good evening 😊

Yo chill, let Andy call whatever version of malay he/she wants to represent. All languages are man-made and so what if a language was just standardized very recently. Indonesian version influences much more people/countries nowadays and it diverges from non-Indonesian other forms of malay in quick pace to the point where informal Indonesian is very hard to understand by Malaysians etc. Similarly you can't just replace Afrikaan to be Dutch dialect despite 95% similarity (first dictionary is also relatively recent in 1902) or Norwegian Bokmål to Danish despite being almost identical for the sake to be 'Neutral'.

Indonesian is a man-made language, the same as Malay, or any other language. Standardization may have been more recent, but that means nothing linguistically. Your claim that Indonesian is just a dialect of Malay could be flipped the other, one could claim that Malay is an Indonesian dialect. Also why anti pride?

these languages are the farthest from their ancestral homeland in Taiwan and Southeast Asia
