WhatsApp translator for Tonga
The Kingdom of Tonga is an archipelago where Tongan is the voice of daily life and English is widely learned, so a WhatsApp translator in Tonga serves both ends of a conversation. This page is for hosts, families and workers who write across languages.
Courtesy first
Tongan has forms of respect that fit the person you address. In a first message, say hello, say who you are and then explain your request. Choose a formal tone in oKiKo for people you do not know.
Relatives overseas
Many Tongan families have members in New Zealand, Australia and the US, and groups share news of the islands, church services and celebrations. Translated messages are useful for younger readers who understand spoken Tongan better than written.
Between islands
Away from the main island, connection can be uneven. Short texts and one topic per message get through more easily. Wait before sending a reminder, particularly on weekends.
Languages
Tongan is the language of daily life and English is the other official language. Relatives and workers abroad write most often in English, Samoan, Fijian and Māori.

- Does oKiKo store my chats?
- Messages go through its server and translation services so that they can be translated. It does not claim end-to-end encryption.
WhatsApp, translated with oKiKo
