Ko e founga hono ma'u'e Tonga a hono hingoa

 Today our teacher Mrs Tele'a told us a story of Maui and how Tonga got it's name.The Tongan islands were named after a man who sold and gave away hooks. His name was Tongataumata'u, he also gave Maui his hook."what can i give you" said Maui, Tongataumata'u thought and finally gave an answer "when you fish and island make sure to name that island after me". so as he promissed he got and island and named it after him and thats how Tonga got it's name.Disney depiction of obese Polynesian god in film Moana sparks anger | Film  | The Guardian
