A game for learning gagana Samoa at home or in class. Cards are filled with real Samoan words — talofa, fa'afetai, the numbers tasi to sefulu — and the caller says the English while players find the Samoan.
Free to design and print · edit any square · 3×3, 4×4, or 5×5
Samoan bingo makes practicing gagana Samoa feel like play. Use it in a language class, at a Samoa Language Week event, or around the table with family, keep the words below or add your own vocabulary, and cards print in a couple of minutes.
Because every card is shuffled from the same square list, no two learners get the same grid, so a whole class or family can play as you call words and each person still has to recognize the Samoan and find it on their card.
These are just a starting point — swap in your own words in the editor before you print.
Call English, find the Samoan
Say the English meaning and have players locate the Samoan word on their grid, which drills recognition and pronunciation at the same time.
Group by theme
Build a card around one set — the numbers tasi to sefulu, or everyday greetings — so learners master a focused batch before moving on.
Print a class set or play on phones
Print a card per learner, or share one link and a QR code so a class or family plays on their own devices while you call out the words.
Edit every square. Open the card in the editor, keep the suggested squares or replace them with your own words, emoji, or photos, and pick a theme that fits the day.
Print a whole set at once. Each card is shuffled from the same square list, so every player gets a unique grid. Print to standard letter or A4 paper on any home printer — or order professionally printed cards shipped to your door.
Or play live. Share one link and a QR code and the whole room plays from their phones, in person or over video.

Is this good for beginners in gagana Samoa?
Yes. The squares cover greetings, numbers, and everyday words, so first-time learners get a friendly introduction to common Samoan vocabulary.
Can I add my own Samoan words?
Yes. Every square is editable, so you can swap in family names, foods, or phrases your group is learning for a card that fits your lesson.
How should the caller run the game?
Call the English meaning aloud and let players find the matching Samoan word, or say the Samoan and have them translate it back to English.
