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

This morning our teacher Mrs Tele'a told us a story of Maui and how Tongo got it's name. The stroy started with Maui, he went to and old man name Tongataumata'u( Tonga the expert fisherman). he sold very nice hooks and offered one to Maui, but Maui didn't choose any of them. He chose the old hook with scratches and dead leave and cod webs on  it. Maui asked "what can i give you" Tongataumata'u was thinking. Then he got it he asked"when you fish up and island,name it after me", so when Maui fished up and island he named it Tonga.
