[edit] Ka ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi
Ka ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi = The Hawaiian Language
The Hawaiian Language is a very beautiful, poetic language. One word can have mulitple different meanings depending upon the placement of the okina and the kahakō over different vowels.
Take the word KALA for example..
- kala (with no okina or kahakō) means unicorn fish; to loosen; rough, as sharkskin; among many other things.
- kālā (with a kahakō over both "A's") means dollar; money.
When I use Hawaiian words on my page, I will make every effort to include their meanings in the "Wehewehe" section below.
[edit] Wehewehe (Explain)
This section here I have added to this page so that I can expain the meanings of all the Hawaiian words that I have used on this page. I originally created a few articles with the meanings of some of the words I originally used on here and the Recent Changes Patrollers nominated them for speedy deletion. While some of these words will have multiple meanings, I am only going to put the meaning of the word as it is used on this page.
- aloha means hello.
- aloha nō means hello indeed as used in the context on this page.
- aloha kākou means may there be love/friendship between us. Used when addressing more than one person.
