45962		United States Honolulu	(SP) (Check in #2) This is a non permanent installation of informational posters written completely in Hawaiian, found in a university library (education domain/also public health domain?). This is intended mostly for speakers of Hawaiian, although the accompanying graphics helps get the point across even for speakers of other languages. This is the first time I’ve seen important public health information provided purely in Hawaiian, so one could say that these posters were made as a sort of statement protesting the idea that only English is appropriate for official announcements like public health, since Hawaiian is an official language of Hawai'i too and should be treated as such.

45964		United States Honolulu	(SP) (Check in #2) This is a semi permanent vinyl banner seen outside a resident’s home (residential domain). It says “kū kia'i mauna” or “guardians of the mountain”, which is a slogan associated with the movement against the construction of an observatory on Mauna Kea. This is sign is likely directed towards Locals or residents who are familiar with current events in Hawai'i. Bright red and yellow colors are used to emphasize the issue, express their anger, and associate itself with Hawai'i’s history.	Multilingual Hawaiʻi

43685		ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa Honolulu	HK – There is Hawaiian in this but in a Pidgin Format. Although The Bus isnʻt pidgin the way they say can be considered Pidgin. “Aloha the bus” can be defined as “Love the bus.” This is a bus stop bench in fron of Gateway Hale. I dont think students even notice that its even there. But it is faced towards the road so it is showing appreciation towards the Bus Drivers that drive the busses.	Multilingual Hawaiʻi
