People of Polynesian descent, from the Kingdom of Tonga. To distinguish a Tongan from any other polynesian group, just say "malo e lelei", if they answer back with "malo", or "malo e lelei", then they are Tongan.

Get the Tongan mug.The pacific islanders of the South Pacific Islands of Tonga. Tonga is known as the "Friendly Islands" which is in between New Zealand and and third away from Hawai'i. The Tongan people are known for their unique culture which includes dancing, clothing, and various sorts of delicious food. But the Tongan culture is mainly based on Respect. They believe the elders and the women should be treated with respect. They also greet visitors hoping to befriend them.
Tongans are perceived as the "bad kids". The ones who would start fights in
schools, pull out guns or any kind of weapon to fight. But these are all not true. Tongans are the friendliest group of people you'll ever meet throughout this whole world. They are not just some wild savages, here to just destroy things. I myself am a TONGAN! AND I AM SURE DAMN PROUD TO BE ONE! STOP PERCEIVING TONGANS AND OTHER POLYNESIANS AS BAD PEOPLE! Plus just don't be jealous you weren't born into the awesome life of a TONGAN FAMILY!
MATE MA'A TONGA!!OFA LAHI ATU TONGA!💯💯💯💯💯💯👌👊👊👏

Get the tanga mug.Another word describing madness and rudeness. Also if someone is acting "sour" rather than sweet. Or if your face is as red as a tomato and you consider your only hobby as as yelling at other people for no darn reason even if they slightly move or sneeze.
