The official languages in Tahiti and French Polynesia
Today, French Polynesia has two official languages: Reo Tahiti (Tahitian) and French. But Polynesia itself is a vast triangle-shaped oceanic territory that stretches across the South Pacific, with three major points: Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island, in the southeast; Hawaii, a popular American tourist destination, in the north; and Aotearoa, the former name for New Zealand, colonized by the British, in the southwest. Within this great Polynesian Triangle, there is a common ancestral language, which has evolved into distinct variants over time.
