This sticker, made by a local company, features the Pidgin phrase “Cheehoo” stylized as the Champion brand logo. Cheehoo is an exclamatory phrase used when something exciting is happening. I think that stylizing this local phrase as a trendy apparel company makes it more accessible for younger audiences. Multilingual Hawaiʻi

This is one of my favorite Pidgin phrases and it just means “No worries!”. The “beef curry” part doesn’t mean anything and is only used for the rhyme, but this sticker shows a more literal representation with beef curry as the background. I chose to put this sticker on my water bottle because if someone recognizes it, I know they’re local! Multilingual Hawaiʻi
