AJR - Check In #3 This picture shows a an advertisement sign by Central Pacific Bank. The languages used in this sign are English and Pidgin with the word “Shaka” in large print while the rest of the English words are in much smaller print. With how large “Shaka” is compared to the rest of the words on the ad, it brings most of the focus to it while the rest of the ad acts as a background filler. The intended audience is anyone capable of speaking English since the ad is placed outside next to a major street Multilingual Hawaiʻi

AJR - Check In #3 This picture displays graffiti on a dumpster. In my understanding, the word “moke” refers to a male local of Hawaii, most often of Native Hawaiian descent, who partakes in activities such as fishing, BBQing, things of the like. The idea is that a “moke” is a true local of the islands. The intended audience can be considered to be anyone that sees this dumpster, however, with the message included it may be geared more towards locals who understand the meaning of the word Multilingual Hawaiʻi
