I’m actually from Hawaii I was from the island O’ahu and born in the city Honolulu, I am trying to learn how to speak. Hawaiian because I own when I was born there my mom and my dad were there for overseas because my dad was military. I was born at the pink hospital in Honolulu for only army people, so Hawaii is my culture, I really really love that I’m born from here. It is home to me and I got a couple things from it. I love to swim and I love the ocean and I really really love Hawaii and still trying to learn some of my words.

Unfortunately being born in Hawaii doesn’t make it your culture. However just because it isn’t your culture by blood doesn’t mean you can’t have a connection with the culture. Considering you were born and raised in O’ahu and that you’re taking the time to learn to speak the Ōlelo, not many people do that you know. It’s clear to say you’ve definitely formed that connection with the culture. However I suggest going to Camp Palehu, Ka’ala farms, or some other place that involves ‘āina preservation. It’s wonderful to see people making that connection with the culture even if they’re not connected to it by ancestry. And taking care of the land can make you feel even a deeper connection with the land. People tell me I just have green thumbs, but generally I hate getting filthy and taking care of the land changed that for me. I love caring for the ‘āina. So if you’re looking to deepen that bond you already feel with the culture, I suggest doing some malama ‘āina.

Howzit? I love your videos. I am a kama’āina stuck in the mainland (NYC) and my ohana lives in O’ahu and Kaua’i. I cannot visit because of the quarantine. Your videos have enabled me to see how things are going during this crisis period. Mahalo nui loa. Stay well and enjoy. 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

Auwe! Wonderful pronunciation you two! The only suggestion I have is being careful on how you drag out some sounds. I understand slowing it down so people can understand it, but if you drag out certain sounds it changes the meaning because it seems like you have a kahakou over the vowels. And another suggestion is when you say aloha, be wary of dragging out that o. I hear some people saying Alooowha. So try and keep that l and o sort of blending together. Edit: I made this early on in watching the video and I’m so sorry I saw you guys mentioning this exact same thing when pronouncing Mahalo, but I hope it’s okay that I keep this up for others who may need an example of what dragging out the sound in a word could do.

Well, I learned Pidgin after my first trip to Hawaii and I fell in love with the people, culture and nature, I have never been made to feel unwelcome or offensive when speaking it, in fact, just the opposite. I however am not your typical tourist to Hawaii, I go out of my way to respect and honor local customs and traditions, I know I am an outsider despite now owning a home in Kauai. I don’t go to certain places unless I am specifically invited by locals and I have never, not once been made to feel unwelcome by others when invited by a local friend, as long as someone invites my wife and I, we are always treated like family even by locals that don’t know us. Do I see and hear locals talking bad about tourists? Yep, and when I do the tourist deserve it. Leaving trash everywhere, obnoxiously drunk, disrespectful behavior, damaging property and being rude. Big one, driving like you own the road and being aggressive, you get what you give people.

I don't want to speak Pidgeon, I want to learn and speak Hawaiin. I am learning Hawaiin on DuoLingo and on KZitem. ; ) Ku Kia'i Kapu Mauna Kea. Besides ALOHA you may say WELINA when you greet someone in Hawaii.
