Two modern dancers
Lua tagata taaalo faaonapo nei

Dance is a performing art form consisting of purposefully selected sequences of human movement.
O siva o se faʻatino galuega fomu aofia ai le filifilia ma le loto i ai o fuataga o le gaioiga o tagata .

This movement has aesthetic and symbolic value, and is acknowledged as dance by performers and observers within a particular culture.[nb 1] Dance can be categorized and described by its choreography, by its repertoire of movements, or by its historical period or place of origin.
O lenei gaioiga e matagofie ma taua lona taua, ma ua lauiloa o se siva e le au fai taga ma tagata matamata i totonu o se aganuu faapitoa. O le siva e mafai ona faʻavasegaina ma faʻamatalaina e lana talanuʻu, e ala i lona lisi o gaioiga, poʻo lona taimi faʻasolopito poo le nofoaga na afua mai ai .

An important distinction is to be drawn between the contexts of theatrical and participatory dance,[4] although these two categories are not always completely separate; both may have special functions, whether social, ceremonial, competitive, erotic, martial, or sacred/liturgical.
O se eseesega tāua o le vaʻaia i le va o taʻaloga o taʻaloga faʻasalalau ma auai, e ui o nei vaega e lua e le o taimi uma e vavae ese ai; e mafai uma ei latou ona i ai ni galuega faʻapitoa, pe faʻapisinisi, faʻasalalau, faʻatauvaʻa, faʻamalo, martial, pe paia / liturgical .

Other forms of human movement are sometimes said to have a dance-like quality, including martial arts, gymnastics, cheerleading, figure skating, synchronised swimming, marching bands, and many other forms of athletics.
O nisi ituaiga o gaioiga a tagata e i ai taimi e fai mai ai le lelei o le siva, e aofia ai le martial galuega, faiaoga, faʻafiafiaga, taʻavale ata, sosoʻo faʻafeiloaʻi, taʻavale savavali, ma le tele o isi ituaiga afeleti.

Theatrical dance, also called performance or concert dance, is intended primarily as a spectacle, usually a performance upon a stage by virtuoso dancers.
O le siva taʻaloga, faʻapitoa foi o le taʻaloga poʻo le siva faʻasalalau, o le faamoemoe autu o se faaaliga, e masani lava o se faʻataʻitaʻiga i luga o se laasaga e tagata amio mama.

It often tells a story, perhaps using mime, costume and scenery, or else it may simply interpret the musical accompaniment, which is often specially composed.
E masani ona faamatalaina se tala, atonu e faʻaaogaina le mime, teuga ma vaaiga, a leai o lona uiga o le taina o musika, lea e masani ona fatuina.

Examples are western ballet and modern dance, Classical Indian dance and Chinese and Japanese song and dance dramas.
O faʻataʻitaʻiga o paleni sisifo ma siva faʻaonaponei, siva Initia masani ma pese Saina ma Iapani ma talavaʻa siva.

Most classical forms are centred upon dance alone, but performance dance may also appear in opera and other forms of musical theatre.
O le tele o fomu masani e faʻapitoa i le siva, ae o le siva taʻaloga e mafai foi ona i ai i le opera ma isi ituaiga musika.

Participatory dance, on the other hand, whether it be a folk dance, a social dance, a group dance such as a line, circle, chain or square dance, or a partner dance such as is common in western Western ballroom dancing, is undertaken primarily for a common purpose, such as social interaction or exercise, of participants rather than onlookers.
Le siva auai, i le isi itu, pe o se siva faa-tagata, se siva faaagafesootai, se siva vaega e pei o se laina, liʻo, filifili po o se siva sikuea, po o se siva a le paaga e pei ona taatele sisifo Sisifo polosolo siva, ua faia muamua mo se faʻamoemoe masani, e pei o fegalegaleaiga faʻaagafesootai poʻo faamalositino, o tagata auai nai lo tagata matamata.

Such dance seldom has any narrative.
O lea siva e seasea ona i ai se tala.

A group dance and a corps de ballet, a social partner dance and a pas de deux, differ profoundly.
O se siva kulupu ma se paʻaleti, se siva a le paaga faʻapisinisi ma se pas de lua, e ese le loloto.

Even a solo dance may be undertaken solely for the satisfaction of the dancer.
E oo lava i se siva siva e mafai ona faia na o le faamalieina o le siva.

Participatory dancers often all employ the same movements and steps but, for example, in the rave culture of electronic dance music, vast crowds may engage in free dance, uncoordinated with those around them.
O tagata taaalo auai e masani ona latou faʻaaogaina ia lava gaioiga ma laasaga ae, mo se faʻataʻitaʻiga, i le aganuʻu agavaʻa o siva musika faaeletonika, e mafai e le toʻatele o tagata ona auai i siva siva, e le faʻatasi ma i latou o siomia i latou.

On the other hand, some cultures lay down strict rules as to the particular dances in which, for example, men, women and children may or must participate.
I le isi itu, o nisi aganuu latou te faataatia tulafono laiti e faatatau i siva faapitoa, lea, mo se faataitaiga, o alii, tamaitai ma tamaiti e mafai pe tatau foi ona auai.

Art is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artifacts (artworks), expressing the author's imaginative, conceptual ideas, or technical skill, intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power.[1][2] Other activities related to the production of works of art include the criticism of art, the study of the history of art, and the aesthetic dissemination[clarification needed] of art.
Faatufugaga o se ituaiga eseese o gaoioiga o tagata i le foafoaina o vaaia, auditory po o le faatinoina mamanu (galuegefaatugaga), le faaalia o le a le tusitala fatufua, manatu faʻavae, po o le tomai faapitoa, faamoemoe e talisapaia mo lo latou matagofie po o se malosiaga faalelagona. O isi gaoioiga e fesootaʻi ma le gaosiga o galuega taulima e aofia ai le faitioina o ata, suʻesuʻega o le tala faasolopito o faatufugaga, ma le faʻasalalauga faʻalelei o faatufugaga.

The three classical branches of art are painting, sculpture and architecture.[3] Music, theatre, film, dance, and other performing arts, as well as literature and other media such as interactive media, are included in a broader definition of the arts.[2][4] Until the 17th century, art referred to any skill or mastery and was not differentiated from crafts or sciences.
O lala e tolu o le aufaʻatagata o ata vali, vane ma faʻatagata. Musika, fale tifaga, ata tifaga, siva, ma isi gaioiga faatino, faapea foi ma tusitusiga ma isi ala o faasalalauga e pei o faasalalauga fefaasoaai, o loo aofia ai i se faauigaga lautele o faatufugaga. Seʻi oʻo i le seneturi lona 17, o tusiga e faatatau i soʻo se tomai poʻo le masini ma e leʻi faʻaeseese mai le fomai poʻo le faasaienisi.

In modern usage after the 17th century, where aesthetic considerations are paramount, the fine arts are separated and distinguished from acquired skills in general, such as the decorative or applied arts.
I le faaaogaina i ona po nei ina ua mavae le senituri lona 17, i le mea maualuga iloiloga matagofie, o le faatufugaga lelei tuueseeseina ma faailoga ese mai tomai maua i le aoao, e pei o le teuteu po o faaaogaina faatufugaga.

Though the definition of what constitutes art is disputed[5][6][7] and has changed over time, general descriptions mention an idea of imaginative or technical skill stemming from human agency[8] and creation.[9] The nature of art and related concepts, such as creativity and interpretation, are explored in a branch of philosophy known as aesthetics.[10]
E ui o le faauigaga o le mea e aofia ai le faatufugaga ua finauina ma ua suia i le taimi, o faamatalaga lautele na taua ai se manatu o le mafaufau po o le tomai faapitoa e mafua mai i le saolotoga o tagata ma le foafoaga. O le natura o faatufugaga ma manatu e tutusa, e pei o le fatufatuaʻi ma le faʻaliliuga, o loʻo suʻesuʻeina i se paranesi o filosofia ua lauiloa o le faʻalelei.

In a modern sense, comedy (from the Greek: κωμῳδία, kōmōidía) is a genre of fiction that refers to any discourse or work generally intended to be humorous or amusing by inducing laughter, especially in theatre, television, film, stand-up comedy, books and novels or any other medium of entertainment.
Le maliega o se ituaiga o talafatu e faatatau i soʻo se lauga poʻo se galuega masani e faʻamalieina pe malie e ala i le faatosinaina o le lata, aemaise lava i le fale tifaga, televise, ata tifaga, malie malie, tusi ma tala poʻo isi faʻalauiloa.

The origins of the term are found in Ancient Greece.
O le tupuaga o le upu o loʻo maua i Ancient Greece .

In the Athenian democracy, the public opinion of voters was influenced by the political satire performed by the comic poets at the theaters.[1] The theatrical genre of Greek comedy can be described as a dramatic performance which pits two groups or societies against each other in an amusing agon or conflict.
I le faatemokalasi a Atenia, o le manatu lautele o tagata palota na aafia i le taitai faaupufai na faatinoina e le au solo pese i fale faafiafia. [1] O le genre tala faatino o faleaitu Greek e mafai ona faamatalaina o se faatinoga maoae lea pits ni vaega se lua po o le sosaiete e faasaga i le tasi le isi i se mālie agon po o feteenaiga.

Northrop Frye depicted these two opposing sides as a "Society of Youth" and a "Society of the Old."[2] A revised view characterizes the essential agon of comedy as a struggle between a relatively powerless youth and the societal conventions that pose obstacles to his hopes.
Northrop Frye na faʻaalia nei itu faʻafeagai e lua o se "Sosaiete a le Autalavou" ma se "Sosaiete o le Tuai." [2] O se vaaiga toe iloilo ua faʻaalia ai le taua o le faʻamaʻaloga o se tauiviga i le va o se tupulaga talavou e leai se malosi ma fono faʻalapotopotoga lea e avea ma faʻalavelave i ona faʻamoemoega.

In this struggle, the youth is understood to be constrained by his lack of social authority, and is left with little choice but to take recourse in ruses which engender very dramatic irony which provokes laughter.[3]
I lenei tauiviga, ua malamalama le autalavou ona o lona leai o se pulega faʻaagafesootai, ma ua tuua i se filifiliga itiiti ae o le faia o se mea e fai i tala faasee lea e mafua ai le le mautonu tele e mafua ai le talie. [3]

Satire and political satire use comedy to portray persons or social institutions as ridiculous or corrupt, thus alienating their audience from the object of their humor.
O le satire ma le faʻapolokiki faaupufai e faʻaaoga ai le vevesi e faʻaalia ai tagata poʻo faʻalapotopotoga faʻapitoa e faʻavalevalea pe leaga, ma faʻapenaina ai a latou faʻalogo mai le mea o latou aga malie.

Parody subverts popular genres and forms, critiquing those forms without necessarily condemning them.
Palody subverts ituaiga lauiloa ma fomu, faitioina na ituaiga e aunoa ma le taʻusalaina oi latou.
