  • 2018 marks the 40th year anniversary of the Hawaiian language as an official state language of Hawaiʻi. Within these past decades, there has been a growth of individuals using Hawaiian as their language of choice in daily life. In this episode, we will talk about the Hawaiian language revitalization movement, and some of the challenges that come with its growth.

    Keep up the good work. Every language has a history to unfold before our very ears, and a culture to still show to the world. Language is the life of a people. Long life ka 'ōlelo Hawai'i!!

    No government that calls its citizens free should ever forbid them to speak their language.
    Started Hawaiian on Duolingo a week ago on a whim. I really like the sound, and it is an insult to the humanity of these people that their language was almost eradicated.
    Would like to visit some time, but I guess they have enough white tourists running around there already.

      ZenoDovahkiin It’s cool they are learning Hawaiian and I’m not against it, but let’s discuss facts. Fact is, it’s not really their language. Pidgin English is their language. The population of Hawaii is not the same population it was 200 years ago. The population of Hawaii is multiracial, it is no longer Native Hawaiian as the original population was replaced by a multiracial population. Don’t get me wrong, some locals today (21%) have Hawaiian admixture and about 6% are actual Native Hawaiians in which you could say Hawaiian is indeed their language. But for the vast majority of locals in Hawaii, it’s not their native language. But since it is the native language of the island chain, I don’t see harm in them learning it. I was just addressing facts, which seem to be on the negative side because of the discontinuity in the population and facts are independent of feelings.

      My school's mascot is a leprechaun and we call ourselves the fighting Irish, and wave Irish flags around, but it's an American school, since they love to embrace the "irishness" of our school I wish they would teach Irish here, if I become proficient in Irish within the next year I hope to maybe spread awareness of it, even if it won't help the language, at least do what I can, I wish people would embrace Hawaiian more, or all languages for that matter

      @raphaelmadrid Před 3 lety +2

      Good observation! It's common in most Austronesian languages. That's because phonologically, our languages don't have vowel shifts; every vowel sounds the same throughout a word, and only differs in length and stress.

    The only way to Heaven is to be born again by saying out loud "Jesus is Lord" and believing in ur heart that God rose Him from the dead then you must live for Him i suggest getting baptized, repenting(asking for forgiveness of your sins and making a radical turn from ur sin), fasting (doesnt have to be from food), evangelizing(spreading the Gospel), praying, and reading the Bible. God and Jesus love all of you hmu with any questions have a good day God bless✝️❤️❤️ good works dont get u to Heaven God's grace does John 3:16
