Act “lolo” can be translated to act crazy, make one “Shaka”, which means “hang loose” or the hand symbol associated with it, and wiggle yo “okole” meaning shake your butt. Lastly, “Kay, now open da card!” Translates to Okay, now open the card! This is authentic-symbolic. J.A.S

(SP) (photo taken while riding The Bus) this is a semipermanent paper sign taken while riding one of Honolulu’s Buses (transportation domain). It uses a heading of “Mālama kūpuna” and then the English translation of the phrase directly below it, which indicates that this sign’s audience is both Locals and tourists alike. Hawaiian may have been used to appeal to Locals’ value of taking care of those older than them, and to reflect a strong sense of “Hawaiian values”.

EL-S Checkip #2 : Languages used on this sign is English and Hawaiian. Languages presented all in the same way except Kokua is underlined. I think to emphasize kokua. The audience is general public. The domain is the airport. The sign is telling people we need your help. The sign is here to just let people know we need your help, it could be talking about anything.

The domain is in a safety/warning, used to tell people to let seniors take the front seats. The sign is meant for both tourists and speakers of hawaiian, given that the translation is right below it
