This is a restaurant sign. “Wat Get” is Pidgin (Hawaiian Creole) or “what is there” in English. Wat means “what” in English and “get” is derivative of Chinese from their sentence structure and has the meaning from this sentence “there is/is there.” I believe this sign is an example of symbolic-authentic because this is a common thing locals say and usually only locals get food from here.

Musubi is a word originally made in Hawaii, though with Japanese influence. The proper Japanese equivalent would be “onigiri”.

The domain is school or education. The Hawaiian in this case is I believe to tell people to wear their mask properly and if not they cannot enter QLC. The intended audience is towards people who can understand Hawaiian or Hawaiian people. I believe this also attracts students into wondering what is meant by this image. I also believe that it is placed to provide a more linguistic landscape for Hawaiian. It is printed on a poster. The direct translation of this accord to google is “enter it, the nose protection, you cannot come in”.

I found this on a sticker at T and C. It said “Stay Stoked.” There is English and Pidgin within this phrase. The stay part is Pidgin for “to be” and stoked means to be enthusiastic or excited for something. I think that this is symbolic-synthetic because it is a sense of the ‘local’ and allows locals to connect. MF
