A rainbow seen from the top floor hallway of my small 3-story walkup building. These towers are being constructed just on the other side of the street. I can’t say the buildings bring joy, since I can never afford to live in places like these here in #Hawaiʻi, but, the #Rainbow does. #ānuenue

I used the term “ʻĀina Pākē” in my Hawaiian class and kumu said that is fine if you want to say “the land of the Chinese” but if you want to say “China” the name of the country is “Kina.” #languageDrops has taught me “ʻĀina Pākē” while #uTalk teaches “Kina” — l just lost another unit of trust in Drops #ŌleloHawaiʻi #ʻōlelo #hawaiʻi #OleloHawaii #LearnHawaiian #olelo #hawaii

The research focused on ʻoʻopu nākea, a type of #goby #fish found only in #Hawaiʻi. ʻOʻopu nākea spends the larval part of its life in the #ocean before returning to the freshwater streams to complete adulthood.

I'm just about to watch the final 2-parter for season 2 of #NCIS #Hawaiʻi but before I do, can anyone confirm this doesn't end on a cliffhanger making episode 1 of season 3 the conclusion?

No spoilers, please. Just a yes or no, thank you very much.

Yesterday I updated my #introduction with my pronouns, & a little screed about how Hawaiian lacks the gendered badness of English pronouns. But Hawaiian pronouns also have some positive good features that English doesn’t have! Did you know that in Hawaiian there are two shades of “we”? One that includes the person you’re talking to (kākou) and one that specifically excludes them (mākou). Now THAT is useful information!!! #ŌleloHawaiʻi #ʻōlelo #hawaiʻi #OleloHawaii #LearnHawaiian #olelo

Hawaiʻi prefers tourists from the #SanFrancisco Bay Area, because we're more "mindful travelers" — ones interested in learning about the cultures and environments of the places we go, and wanting to perpetuate those cultures "and not harm the environment."

#Duolingo recently changed the design for the final section of the Hawaiian course. I was so excited that they introduced Hawaiian-themed graphics specifically for this course! Then I looked at the other courses and realized that this lava-jumping graphic was applied across all the different languages. #ŌleloHawaiʻi #ʻōlelo #hawaiʻi #OleloHawaii #LearnHawaiian #olelo #hawaii
