If You Can Only Learn Two Hawaiian Words, Learn Aloha & Mahalo
Many people come here to visit and leave with a dessire to learn more about our culture and our language. My advice, for what it's worth, is simple...If you can only learn two words in Hawaiian, learn these:
Aloha & Mahalo
They are two of the most important words in the Hawaiian language, representing our paramount Hawaiian values.
After you've learned those two values, then work on these:
akahai, lôkahi, `olu`olu, ha`aha`a, and ahonui.
Aloha ~

Want to know what really steals my aloha...? Want to know what makes me want to haka...?It's hard for me to see my mobile phone's display when I'm out in the direct sunlight, especially when I'm on the beach. My aloha therefore, gets ripped when I answer my mobile phone "blindly" to a telemarketer. Sorry to vent but I absolutely HATE that. Grrrrrrrr!I always report annoying callers to the reportphonenumbers.com website and move on.Just wanted to vent :-)Aloha ~Ali Related Posts:If You Can Only Learn Two Hawaiian Words, Learn Aloha
