Accordingly, no one knew who would be poisoned if no preventive measures were taken. This unidentifiedness did not soften the response that followed the first poisonings.

text: The diachronic development of the oral-based k--style concurrent with the literary-based t'''-style has resulted in their unique co-existence in the twentieth century, and has given rise to clearly defined domains of usage for each style.
ref: 2001 August, John F. Mayer, “Abstract”, in Code-Switching in Samoan: T-style and K-style (Theses for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy; 4121), Honolulu, Haw.: University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, →OCLC, page 2:
text: The two styles are in a diglossic relationship to one another, with the t'''-style used to mark respect and formality in contexts such as preaching, prayer and radio broadcasts, and in conjunction with use of “chiefly language”, while the colloquial k-style is used in more intimate and/or informal contexts such as the home, when joking, and in casual conversation. The t'''-style is the one usually taught to foreigners, but the majority of younger New Zealand-born Samoans do not have full mastery of this style or of chiefly language, with the result that they have a tendency to hang back from talk with older interlocutors in contexts where use of these more formal styles is expected (Hunkin 2003).
