familia de lenguas del Pacífico central
Polynesian refers to a family of languages spoken across a vast region of the Pacific Ocean, including places like Hawaii, Samoa, and Tahiti, where millions of people use these related languages today. These languages matter because they connect the history and culture of Pacific Island communities and help preserve the distinct identities of Polynesian peoples across different islands.

Son cerca de 40 lenguas; de ellas, las más habladas son el samoano, tongano, tahitiano, maorí y hawaiano.
