I love it when you do a proper English accent. Lmao!
"I don't want my mouth broken!" 🤣
I remember my uncle saying "broke da mount" since the early 60's.
the "yeah, no" actually comes from Hawaiian. The "no" is like an adjective toward what weʻre saying. For example, in the Hawaiian Language, we say "leʻaleʻa nō." Leʻaleʻa meaning fun and nō meaning very or indeed. So when pidgin happened, I think the no come from that nō. So when we say "yeah, no" we mean "yes, very much indeed"
Wow that is so interesting
In Spanish you have the same thing- "Si, no?"
and you also have the opposite: "No, yeah?"
Hah dats why I say no when I really mean yes. Raised wit smo kine pidgin
@@Camsynth “hah?” Is like saying you did not hear the person or you can not believe what you heard or an attempt to affirm what you heard or strong encouragement to coerce a response.(?)
I love your show. In this episode you referenced "a penny saved. . .". When I first met you way back in the 80's, you were saving all your pennies, and other spare change, by tossing the coins onto your patio. Your back yard was paved with coins! I keep mine in a jar, but different strokes, eh?
My great grandmother spoke to my dad and once used 4 languages together in one sentence. She spoke that plantation pidgin. Even i had hard time tryin to figure out what she said.
“Go stay, come go!”
As soon as I heard "rat bite" I went die laughing, I neva hea dat fo long time too lol.
Aloha Andy. Keep it doing brah. I watch at least one video every day. Keeps me smiling. Much aloha 🤙🏽
I love Andy! I haven't heard talk like that for years and it brings back memories of luaus entertained by cousins singing and at least one falsetto. And the aunties or gramma kicking off their slippah to dance hula.
I spoke pidgin when I was a kid in HI and this brings me back!
I did too, seems a tiny bit cringey now for me... But good memories
Ho tanks fo keepin da pidgin alive unko Andy!
Thanks Andy!!! This is the best! Made me miss hawaii even more after moving to da mainland 5 years ago.
i learned so much it BROKE DA MOUT. Mahalo!
Thanks. You have warmed this Alaska peep
Uncle Andy, pau I crack up!!
Going share wit all my friends lolol
Another good show. Learned something new.
LOL ~ My BFF and I have been saying, "Oh yeah, no?" with the automatic response, "Oh no, yeah?" for years!!
I miss hearing pidgin every day. I was 19 and moved from mainland to Keneohe, spent all my time with local locals and bit by bit started speaking it cuz it's all i heard most of the time. At some point it sank in and I felt it, it flowed through me. To dis day stay in my heart. Hawaii and the people there are magic.
Now that I watch Andy's show, Stonkodactyl, i speak pidgin around the house. At times it feels like it's a faster way to communicate! Anyways, like i one tol you befo, isn't that the Aloha Spirit? Taste more of that at Andy's new LIVE stream at Twitch.tv/andybumatai. No shame, come talk story and share your traditions from family and island with the chat and Andy. Live everyday at 6am HST, 9am Pacific.
Ho! I feel ja'like I wen go on one small kine vacation plus had one linguistic course. Keep'em coming!
+Kory Tideman Mahalo. I'll do my best.
Andy! you da bes.....been one long time since I one heard some pidgeon talk eh, Mahalo nui loa. (JCHS - Ewa Beach / Class of 81)
We love you Braddah Andy mahalo nui loa!!!!
Good one Andy...........Love you
This is the first video I saw when looking up a pidgin video. wow. Ima start at one now, good stuff!
Lol this is good , made me laugh 😊
I lived in Hawaii in the early 70s wita local Houle family in Kaaawa. You were my favorite comidian then and I an so happy to get to hear you again. Mahalo for making my day. Aloha nui loa.
Have always been a big fan of yours! Grew up in Waianae. Went to your shows as a kid. I stay New York now😘
Great stuff!
Eh howzit braddah andy! Diz one bugga haole i work with watch your show every day brah, and da kine lolo love it! hahaha and even at da kine bar after we pau hana we still watch! Mahalo nui loa!
4:00 my mother is hawaiian and this sounds just like her when she asks for something. "hey can you get da kine" if i hand her anything she's all "no not that kine, da kine ova there" this cracked me up so hard
I just found your channel and I absolutely love it. It's like a nano vacation. I particularly liked how local Hawaiians use "yeah no?" It's so much nicer than how we use it here in New England. When we use it up here it's usually when someone is saying something foolish or messed up. We will stretch out the yeah, we pause and then real quick say the no. Yeaaaaaah...No. what we're saying when we say it up here is, basically we're telling the other person they're wrong and they're (crazy or a jerk) for thinking they're right.
Can't wait to watch the rest.
Kinda like Turtle to Rick when he first arrived on the North Shore- a Hollywood surf movie with same namesake.
mahalu for the lesson brodda!
Hahaha gotta go back to work bradder, maybe when I finish work we get some brew ah but ..... 🤣👍🏽
extra points on the "cornets" mention :)
Brah! End every sentence wit 'but', but, neva knew why til now 🤣
'Olelo 808
I always thought that it was pau ohana, the same meaning but I am glad that you cleared it up. Thank you
I never heard "rat bite" before -- too funny. Also, I must have picked up something in my 25 years + over there -- to this day I still find myself ending a sentence with "... but." LOL Thanks, Andy! Another great one.
+JT eDesigns ...and Mahalo to you for watching.
LmfaoO, classic. Mahalo nui loa, Brahdah Andy.
Andy Bumatai,
Subject: 'Yeah, no?'
The Spanish phrase is 'que, no', which implies 'what, no?' Expressing 'do you agree, yes'. So your reasoning is correct, from my perspective. Then again, to quote 'The Daily Pidgin', 'no quote me, I may be wrong'.
An aside: I met a native Hawaiian and he mentioned your show. I am most impressed with your persona, mahalo.
It be it,
Ronin Kannushi
Jus like you, I neva hear "rat bite" for long time, but it cracked me up and wen remind me of small kid time wen parents would cut dea kids' hair or da kids try cut 'em themself. An' we always wen say, "Yeah, no?" for mean "It's true, isn't it?" or "Isn't that the truth." It might come from Japanese cuz you can put "no" at da end of one question, or for agreement in Hiroshima dialect instead of "ne." My auntie folks always used to say stuff like "So stupid, no?" or "You going come, no?"
Years ago, being a mainland haole girl, I met and married a local guy. He admitted years later that he kept a Thesaurus at work after meeting me and he was always having to repeat himself cuz I never could understand him. After seeing each other about 6 months, I was feeling bad cuz I wasn't catching any fish...couldn't figure out what bait to use or find a good spot, etc. Then he said to me, "Sawrite, bumbai you go-een". And I LIT UP and said, "Oh honey, I understood what you said!!"
Another thing that would always make me laugh was when he'd end his sentence with 'wat you call em?'. If he would've said 'da kine', I would've accepted it but 'what you call em'??? I'd have to say, "I don't know honey, wat YOU callem?"
Cornet...I haven't thought of that store in long time.
Brah deah no such ting as wrong spelling in pigion!
Mahalo Nui Unko Andy!
+James Keopuhiwa Roga dat!
Right on andy
Andy you still funny,I remember you when I was small
Mahalo for this!! 🌈💕🙏
I always thought "yeah, no?" is from Japanese, who add "ne?" as an intensifier. It sounds the same. "Takai, ne?"
Ya, it could be. But there's also a construction in Portuguese "não é" or "né" which have a somewhat similar meaning.
@@FelipeDallava Isso faz mais sentido
Ne in Japanese is like isnt it? Or dont you agree. Men usually say Na, women say ne.
Cornet store at Makaha. I remember that.
Ho bra, da rat bite, mean. Dat waz back in the hunna buddah dayz. Keep bringing 'em, I grew up with you and rap. Mahaloz.

I moved back to Hilo and I'm on my third hair sylist. Last week, I went to a new one and I told her, "Can you fix my hair? The last guy who cut my hair gave me a rat bite right here"
She gave me a strange look so I had to explain. Turns out, she looks local but she was born and raised in California. LOL
OMGEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! Atlanta Georgia LOVES YOU UNCO!!!!!!!!
"Yeah, no" means...yes I know. How I know? Cause I'm from Makaha "brah!
i just subscribble. Mahalo for my new pidgin lessons👍. . . . . "shaka"!
Neva hea Rat Bite since I was small kid, look at dat buggah wit da rat bite! LOL...
The proper english is killing me lolol you are great :)
Good one! These episodes should be made available on the airplane entertainment system for people on the way to Hawaii.
+Chris Slack The problem is they would want to change it so much it would end up being a "Lilo & Stich" version.
Luv da "rat bite!"
like try...Hey braddah dis poke ono, broke da mout...like try?
the "yeah no" feature reminds me of Chilensismo (Chilean Spanish) and there usage of "ya po" (or just "po"). it has a similar meaning. People say it to the end of words of phrases to emphasize the obviosity of a statement.
For example, let's say there is a man at a table eating soup. Somebody then asks (in Spanish):
"está comiendo sopa con una cuchara?"
"Sí po!"
I think it's a coincidence but a cool connection anyway
If can can if no can still can .
Yea no is short for Yea, you know
when you said yeah, no I was thinking we say that here in New Mexico! lol. I'm telling you our two states talk the same in many ways. nuh bro?
+Robbie Vigil I really liked New Mexico when I was there for a gig many moons ago.
I stay going.....brah.
You pau? I miss this so much living on the mainland now.
Aloha K Flow, Yes, I'm done with this version of short shows and am now doing LIVE stream every Tues & Thurs 3 PM HST on CZcams and a bunch of other platforms. Check out CZcams.com/AndyBumataiShow to watch. Hope to see you in the stream. Mahalo.
So many sayings from the childhood. Haha, I don't hear so I don't have it on the tongue anymore.
BRADDAH ANDY HOW BOUT -- "BUMBAI" -- LIKE: NO FO'GET TO WIPE THE FLO..BUMBAI YOU SLIP!!
Again anothef happy start to my day. Mahoalo nui loa. I was thinking that pidgin grammar is like talking to Yoda...things get turned around.
+Jodi Phillips Yes, to most English speakers it sounds like Yoda even though most other languages have Yoda sentence structure and consider English to have a reversed sentence structure.
"standard" English is so messed up. Don't even get started on all the exceptions! Pidgin for da peoples!
Neva heard bout one “rat bite” hearing that give me laughs
Sick is also teenage slang that means "good/cool"", but to most people it dosent sound like proper English.
Oh, dis iz da kine! Andy, you got to tell em, "Ono" (onolicious} all comes from da fish Ono.....
Funny brah
“No?” = “isn’t it?”
Mahalo bradda
In South America we have this habit to say Yeah,no? it's funny cause we agree with something and at the end the " No" means .." right?"
For example Today it's so cold, I would like to stay home having some pop corn watching some movie.....and my friend is gonna answer
" Yeah, no?" this means yeah, right? I agree with you!! ... :) :)
Soo good. Rat bite Uncle!!! Killin me. In Lahaina town I had a buddy come from Hanapepe say rat bite. We were rolling. Never laugh so hard. Also finish sentence with "but" like mainland people finish sentence with "soo". "I like make musubi but no more spam, sooo." Same,Ya? LOVE IT Uncle.

Andy, when I use but at the end of a sentence I usually use um like dakine that the rest is implied, you supposed to know what I mean. lol for example I would say "I hungry but." Indesit
+Desiree Paahana I guess it depends on the inflection. I use as you would "though."
Braddah Andy, I tink yea no is yea know.
Like yea I know..... Jus was tingking
K... maybe I tingking to hawd
K spock you laida
I was cracking up, neva use these words long time, but remember my madda went tell me dat all da time after school before you go out and play.
"Yeah, no?" is said frequently in New Mexico, too, especially among Hispanics. Meaning is the same.
vernas?
Howzit Andy! I lived on the Big Island for like 3 years. I got to know the local folks pretty well. I have a question about the pidgen term "bon buy" . To me it meant , "later, or we will do it later, it will arrive later ect." But after thinking about it i came to the conclusion that it was a condensed version of ," buy n buy". a phrase meaing just about the same thing. So what? I wen theory em out? Love the show and miss Hawaii, Aloha!
+James Brannon Yes, you are correct. Bum By is a pidgin version of By And By.
Nerjus..neva hea dat one ages.
