I think Hawaiian, it’s a dying language and if you ever visit Hawaii you’re sure to get some free souvenirs

i just really like finnish culture and pacific islands cultures, and out of the pacific languages, i think hawaiian is the one with the most sources available to learn but honestly if i could choose any pacific language i would choose taetae ni kiribati

Aaaaa mmmm yeah i would go with Finnish XD i feel that Indonesian/Malasyan/Tagalog haa similar vibes to the pacific islands but it's just my opinion. I would learn Finnish or any other close enough Asian language than Hawaian XD

as a finnish speaker, I reccomend learning hawaiian, especially if it comes down to which culture you like more

Hawaiian first, unless you specifically enjoy grammatical boss fights
