GM - I saw this while walking down to Waikiki. The intended audience is tourist / visitors. It had drink Aloha all over the posters with Pepsi on it. Just because it has a Aloha on it, I feel like it could attract visitors to drink the “aloha”

The sticker on this car parked in the side of the road says “can,” which is most likely from the phrase “if can, can; if no can, no can”. It is not referring to a soda can, but to possibility.

This is a card that says “Minahs brah”, “Shaka, brah”, “laydahs, brah”, and “What, brah” (hwc). This is a card that is using humor. Because brah does not mean bra it is short for braddah which means “brother” in English. Minahs is minor; to locals it also means “it is not a big deal”. Laydahs is later. This is symbolic-authentic.

This is a card that says “Simon sez act lolo”, “Simon sez make one Shaka”, “Simon sez wiggle yo’ okole” (hwc). Lolo is Hawaiian but written as lōlō which means crazy. Sez is says in English. Yo’ is short for your. Okole is Hawaiian but normally written as ‘Okole which means butt. Shaka is a term that is a symbol of goodbye or hello. This is symbolic-authentic. R.N.

The purpose of the sign is to spread cognizance about the nesting of the Albatrosses to tourists. The sign uses Hawaiian to convey that the Hawaiian language is still being used.

This card says “here’s one bottled water fo’ go with your birthday cake” and there is a bottle that says “local kine tap water, straight from da pipe” (hwc). The first phrase in English means here is a bottled water to go with your birthday cake. And the phrases on the bottle says local tap water, water coming from the faucet. This a humor saying that our tap water is clean so you do not need to get it from bottled water from the store. This is symbolic-authentic. R.N.

This sticker, made by a local company, features the Pidgin phrase “Cheehoo” stylized as the Champion brand logo. Cheehoo is an exclamatory phrase used when something exciting is happening. I think that stylizing this local phrase as a trendy apparel company makes it more accessible for younger audiences.

GM - This was for an event space. They used the word da room which means the room. They may have used this to attract more people to look at their place.

This is one of my favorite Pidgin phrases and it just means “No worries!”. The “beef curry” part doesn’t mean anything and is only used for the rhyme, but this sticker shows a more literal representation with beef curry as the background. I chose to put this sticker on my water bottle because if someone recognizes it, I know they’re local!
