The domain is novelties. The Pidgin is used as a birthday card to greet people. The intended audience is locals who want to give this card to another local, whose birthday it is. It is printed on card stock. The implied message is “it’s your birthday again, I see. It’s the day you receive plenty aloha and generosity.” This is a simple and direct translation of the phrase above. - CQ EC

This is an example of Hawaiian. Maika’i denoting good, and pulehu being a cooking technique in Hawaiian meaning cooked over hot coals. This is a “specials” sign printed on a paper so it’s not permanent. It appeals for both locals and tourists to be “authentic” and good.

(SK) (#3) This photo is located in the North Shore of Oahu, specifically in Haleiwa. This is a floor mat found in a local surf shop with the Hawaiian flag in the background with the Pidgin phrase “DaKine.” The use of Pidgin on this floor mat is just as decoration and in a way familiarizing/normalizing Pidgin. The target audience is anyone who steps into the surf shop and looks around.

(SK) (#3) This photo is located in Waipahu and is a local Acai Bowl place. This sign is located outside of the business and is the menu of what they serve. It’s multiple colors and pictures makes it stand out and allows customers to view it. Pidgin is found in this photo by the label of the establishment “Wicked Bowlz” with the emphasis on the spelling of bowlz. Some think that acai bowls are a local delicacy of Hawaii and are local, however they are not. The intended audience is those looking for a tasty acai bowl to eat and looking over the menu.
