Greet, thank & respond

This is a practice drill from the free 52-lesson Tongan course. The course reaches for it in lesson 14, greetings and social formulas, where it runs inside the lesson as well as on this page.

Mālō e lelei, the how-are-you reply, and the mālō-e thanks family, in context.

Every item asks the same thing: Which formula fits the situation? Each item shows a line of Tongan and a short row of answers to tap. Right or wrong, the drill then says why that answer is the one the grammar wants.
