Tokelau Language Week

The name Tokelau Islands was adopted in 1946 and was shortened to Tokelau in 1976. In an old story told about the origin of the name Tokelau, Lu, a magical child raised in the sky, placed the winds in the directions that they now blow. The name Tokelau relates to all three atolls and means northerly wind or northern in the Polynesian languages. For example, in te reo Māori “tokerau” means “northern”.
