Word: k-style Part of Speech: noun 1. The consonant system of colloquial Samoan, differing from that of formal Samoan in a few particulars, among them the pronunciation of /t/ as [k]. Labels: uncountable Example: In a formal setting with an unknown papālagi visitor, a Samoan would be expected to use the formal t-style, but Ali’imalemanu started his performance in k'''-style and then switched over to t-style after a few minutes. Later on when he knew me better he mixed the two styles when he told me stories (and, of course, always used the k'''-style when we talked together with no recorder on, no matter what the subject was). Example: This study shows that there are two important linguistic styles in modern Samoan which are marked primarily through the alternation of phonological features. These two styles have been termed the t-style and the k'''-style. Most past descriptions of Samoan have failed to account for linguistic variation in Samoan, and in particular, for the k'''-style of modern Samoan.
