(SP)(check in #3) this is a photo of a permanent wooden sign outside of a children’s clothing shop, in the domain of commodification. This store sells clothes branded around the Hawaiian aesthetic and language, so it makes sense that they used a Hawaiian word in their name, along with the aesthetic of straw hats, hula skirts, and leis. It is a pretty expensive store, so it is likely more popular among tourist in the area; they hang have uses Hawaiian in the name/on their sign to make the shop feel more authentically Hawaiian to tourists and Locals alike, though likely more towards tourists since they used a pretty well known, easy to figure out Hawaiian word. Tourists may see that sign and want to buy clothes to make their children feel less like normal kids and more like special little “keiki” who got to visit Hawai'i.

(SP)(check in #3) this is a photo of a semi permanent canvas sign outside of a university building on the UH Manoa campus, in the domain of student life/education/health services. Most of the sign is in big, clear English, likely so that any one on campus, no matter where they’re from, is able to understand the sign and easily access these health services. The Hawaiian phrase for welcome (e komo mai) is in smaller letters compared to the English welcome, as if it was added as an after thought—it may have been included as a part of UH Manoa’s ongoing efforts to reconnect itself with traditional Hawaiian culture and language, and to make itself feel a bit more genuine. It may help in catching the eyes of Local students who speak Hawaiian or are familiar with this phrase, but it is clearly not the main focus of the poster and is easy to miss.
