This is a cooler bag that says “Malama Da ‘Aina” on it. Malama and ‘Aina is in Hawaiian. Malama means “respect”, Da is suppose to be ka in Hawaiian but it is a linker which means “the” and ‘Aina means “land”. This commonly used amongst locals and some non-locals when someone litters or probably one the few things that is taught to tourist when they fly down for vacation. This is symbolic-authentic. R.N.

This is a card that says “ey! Dis card no stay late” (hwc). In English this says wait! This card is not late. In other words the person is saying that they are not giving the card, after your birthday is passed. This is symbolic-authentic. R.N.

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.

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.
