(SP) (Check in #2) This is a photo of a non-permanent painted phrase “E komo mai” on the outside of a student market (educational/restaurant domain). It is mostly directed towards Locals or those who are more familiar with the Hawaiian language. It’s painted in big bright “welcome”ing letters to help the students feel more happy and at home. It is also likely meant to connect the market, and in turn the school, to Hawai'i and make it feel more Local, especially when combined with iconic Hawaiian things such as a wave and pua melia.

(SP)(Check in #2) This Pidgin word was found on plastic bags in a student market (education/restaurant domain), it is being used here likely to catch the attention of Locals or residents who are familiar with Hawaiian cuisine and may be craving manapua. It is the largest thing on the packaging which draws your eyes towards it, making the rest of the English words on the package seem less significant and important.

(SP) (Check in #2) this is a photo of a semi-permanent bumper sticker (taken with permission) in the domain of transportation. It’s main audience is Locals and speakers of Pidgin because “mo bettah” is likely not a phrase that non-Locals will be too familiar with. It is likely meant to show off the car owner’s pride of being from/having visited Molokai and desire to express Molokai’s excellence/superiority over other islands

(SP)(Check in #2) this is a impermanent paper sign in the restaurant domain that contains English, Hawaiian, and Pidgin, but I am using it as a Pidgin submission. This sign is likely directed towards Locals or residents (the sign directly mentions kama'āina) who are more aware of current events in Hawai'i and want to support other Locals buy shopping locally; however, the majority of this sign is still in English so that it is as easy as possible for anyone to read it, no matter where they’re from. Hawaiian, and especially Pidgin (“da Shaka”) is used here to drive home the important of shopping Local and connect it more with the Local community, although in this case one could argue it has become more of a branding choice to appeal to readers’ desire to help Locals and Hawai'i’s economy.

(SP) (Check in #2) This a framed semi-permanent poster visible on entrance to a student market/convenience store domain. The majority of this poster is in English, likely so that students from anywhere, even the mainland or other countries, can understand its main message easily. However, the word “Shaka” and the Shaka hand sign take up large section of the post, encouraging shoppers to look for the Shaka to know you’re buying from local sources. An iconic Pidgin word/symbol is used here to drive home the fact that circulating money back to Locals is very important, and this message would have been less impactful if they had used a non-Pidgin word, since Pidgin is often considered “the language of Locals”.
