Lea Faka-Tonga · Drills

Word Class Identifier

This is a practice drill from the free 52-lesson Tongan course. The course reaches for it in lesson 41, word class flexibility, where it runs inside the lesson as well as on this page.

Same word, different role: noun, verb, adjective, or adverb?

Every item asks the same thing: What role is the highlighted word playing? 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.
