E te le tau faia ni laʻasaga faʻapitoa e sauniuni ai.

E te ono lagonaina sina tiga pe o se tiga pe a tuu le nila. E te ono lagonaina foi le tataina o le loto i le nofoaga pe a uma ona tosoina le toto.

E mafai e lau tausi soifua maloloina ona poloaʻi lenei suʻega ia:

• Vaʻai mo faʻafitauli i le pepe a o to o ia. (O le suʻega e faia o se vaega o se lapoʻa tele o suʻega toto e taʻua o le quadruple screen.)
