Mixing up fa'ē and foha because of Samoan Tongan mix-up

I keep mixing up 'fa'ē' for mother and 'foha' for son since my Samoan background sometimes messes with my brain. It’s funny spotting these words that look alike but mean different things. Anyone else doing both languages and getting this too?

Confused about how to use 'maau' and 'ifo' properly

Hi everyone, I keep mixing up 'maau' which means ready, and 'ifo' which means yum! Can someone give me an example sentence or tip to remember when to say each? I practise in the car but still get stuck! Thanks 😊

How can I better program my brain to remember these languages and what is a good way to study these words to speak fluently in public?

Hi, I am a Samoan 13-year old trying to learn, Lea Fakatonga, Te Reo Māori, and Tagalog. I'm a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and wanting to connect better with the elderly, youth, and primary since I'm serving in the stake. I'm also wanting to prepare for my mission. Does anyone have any tips/shortcuts to learning a whole 'other language? Please let me know. Thank you and God bless.
