== Cultural Insights ==
1. '''Na gaga.'''


In Fijian culture, relationships are highly valued and play a significant role in the lives of individuals and communities. Family relationships, in particular, hold great importance, with strong bonds and support networks present among relatives. The Fijian language reflects this emphasis on relationships, with specific words to denote different family members and levels of kinship.
2. '''Na siga.'''


Additionally, Fijian culture places a strong emphasis on community and social connections. This is evident in the use of words like "kai nomu koro" (neighbor) and "qase ni koro" (elder of the village), which highlight the significance of local communities and the respect given to community members.
==== Exercise 8: Vocabulary Quiz ====


It is also worth noting that Fijian culture values politeness and respect in relationships. When addressing others, particularly elders or individuals of higher social standing, it is customary to use honorific language and show deference. This cultural aspect is reflected in the Fijian vocabulary for relationships, with specific words like "turaga ni vale" (gentleman of the village) and "marama ni vale" (lady of the village) used to express respect and honor.
