The domain is for the public specifically towards those who liter at Kailua Beach Park. The pidgin in this case acts as message more of locals to tourists but also other locals too. It shows how locals care about Hawaii’s environment and want to take care of it. Instead of a sign just tell people to throw away their trash in the bins this has more attitude and tone so it created impact. The intended audience is for both tourists and locals at Kailua Beach Park. It is printed on a metal sheet. The implied as mentioned earlier was to not throw trash out on the beach. The literal translation is “Hey! Don’t throw trash here. If you want to throw something, throw cash! You hear!"

The domain in this photo relates to education. The Hawaiian in this serves as a title to the book and relates to expedition. The intended audience is for those who want to learn more about the history of the british expedition to Hawaii. It is printed on a hardcover book. The meaning of Hokuloa means “great star” and this possibly relates to how Hawaiians navigate which is by wayfinding. - CQ

AJR - Check In #3 This picture shows a an advertisement sign by Central Pacific Bank. The languages used in this sign are English and Pidgin with the word “Shaka” in large print while the rest of the English words are in much smaller print. With how large “Shaka” is compared to the rest of the words on the ad, it brings most of the focus to it while the rest of the ad acts as a background filler. The intended audience is anyone capable of speaking English since the ad is placed outside next to a major street
