HK - “Ua Mau Ka ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono” – The Life of the land is perpetuated in Righteousness” – Quoted from King Kamehameha III in Thomas Square, King Kauikeaouli proclaimed this to his people when the George Paulet incident was resolved from a brief takeover of Hawaiʻi. However, the British would continue to recognize the Independence of our nation and our Hae Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian Flag) would be raised again. There is more to this history but this is on the stage of the garden in the middle of the International Market. It is on a little plaque in the center of the stage. I feel that this should be made bigger because this is a crucial part of history that seems to be glanced over, especially how the history of this quote's origins is such an important aspect that the International Market does not seem to mention it. Only Hawaiians would know the history of this and the significance of what Kamehameha III said and went through. Should this history be mentioned or is it enough to have this quote for tourists and locals to see?

HK - Holoholo is a local term here in Hawaiʻi where the word is used in the context of going to hang out or “cruz.” “We go Holoholo.” This is a shop perpendicular to the International Market where multiple customers from tourists to Locals go to grab a quick bite or get some souvenirs. Although I am pretty sure that no tourist would know what this means and be amazed by how colorful it looks and all the items available for sale. It's not much about cultural appropriation but is it misinforming our “customers” in interpreting Holoholo as “Cafe and Market?”. We can see this a lot where people would be misinformed because of lack of information

HK - Pāʻina Lānai is the food court in the International Market down in Waikīkī. Pāʻina from ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi is translated to “sharing a meal” and Lānai is like a porch area or a terrace. In the sense of putting these two words together, you create the English equivalent of a Food Court, although this isn't the direct translation, it can be interpreted like a Food Court. This commodification of Hawaiian to English is used all over Waikīkī with the International market being one place that uses and embraces the Hawaiian Culture for all Tourists to see. This targets tourists while also enticing locals with aesthetics.

It’s at a local Foodlands, Maikai means good and Shaka is a local hand sign. It’s used mainly for advertisement and attracting people to try foodland specific items. It’s a printed poster so it’s not really a permanent fixture.

(SK) (#3) This sign is located on campus in the Life Sciences building. The Hawaiian word for woman is exhibited on the sign which is “Wahine.” Hawaiian is found here because it again is used in an attempt to familiarize/normalize the language on campus. Anyone would be able to know what the sign means without knowing the language because of context and already knowing that that symbol means woman. The intended audience of this is anyone looking to use the bathrooms.

(SK) (#3) This sign is found in the freshman towers located on campus. The point of this sign is to educate the students/residents of the tower and begin to immerse them in the language of Hawaiian. It does this by giving the translation of the word in standard English and then also adding the Hawaiian translation. In this case, the word “red” in Hawaiian is “‘ ‘ula’ula” according to the sign.

The domain is novelties. The Pidgin is used as a birthday card to greet people. The intended audience is locals who want to give this card to another local, whose birthday it is. It is printed on card stock. The implied message is “it’s your birthday again, I see. It’s the day you receive plenty aloha and generosity.” This is a simple and direct translation of the phrase above. - CQ EC

This is an example of Hawaiian. Maika’i denoting good, and pulehu being a cooking technique in Hawaiian meaning cooked over hot coals. This is a “specials” sign printed on a paper so it’s not permanent. It appeals for both locals and tourists to be “authentic” and good.

This was a sign for the bathroom for a family stall. I was at the movie theater and they had different bathroom options. It’s nice when they have the photo comic picture and the word to know exactly what it’s indicating. GM
