Wallisian Language
‘Uvean (Faka?uvea) is a Nuclear Polynesian language. It is spoken on ‘Uvea, which is also known as Wallis Island. As a result, ‘Uvean was known as Wallisian during the colonial period.
‘Uvean has been heavily influenced by Tongan. This results from ‘Uvea having been a part of the Tu'i Tongan empire for hundreds of years.
In total, there are about 17,000 ‘Uvean speakers.
