@mrjimmyrex: Did you know in the Tongan culture there’s no word for cousin, uncle, or aunt? Distant family is still family and they might as well be your brothers and sisters Polynesians are raised by the community together. And thats why they’re so close knit #thejimmyrexshow #tjrs #jimmyrex #polynesian #culture #family #tongan #closeknit #Love

In Polynesian culture, the saying “it takes a village to raise a child” is taken seriously. ❤️

Facts. Samoa is like that too. No word for cousin so you’re all family. That’s why in a polynesian home the cousins are all so close coztheyonebigfam

there ARE words for uncle and aunt. it's just rarely used cuz kids would just call them by their names. I think there's a word for cousin.
