(SP) (Check in #3) though a bit hard to get a picture of, this is a semi-permanent vinyl window sign on a building on the UH Manoa campus, in the domain of student life/education. It uses the Pidgin word Pau (end, all gone) alongside the English word violence to express their views of getting rid of violence. It is also a pun, because PAU is an acronym for the on-campus organization to whom this sign belongs to. It seems they used Pidgin here to help the organization feel connected to Local students and to the school, maybe to encourage students to feel closer to the organization and reach out if they need help. The Pidgin is in huge letters compared to the English to emphasize their goal (to end violence) and because it is the name of the organization.

Here’s a closer look at the Catholic Church that’s behind my old elementary school. This church brings together a lot of immigrant families and hosts many events for the community year round.

(SP)(check in #3) This photo has both Pidgin and Hawaiian in it, but I want to use it as a Pidgin photo. This is a photo of the common Pidgin greeting “howzit” permanently painted in the entrance way of a dormitory, in the domain of student life/education. Clearly this phrase was used to catch the attention and be understood by both Local students of students from out of state, since almost everyone is familiar with this phrase. It may have been used to make the dormitory feel more genuinely Hawaiian, and a more relaxing and easy-going place for students to live. It makes any student who walks in immediately feel like they are being greeted by a friend.
