The intended audience I feel is more towards tourists because all these places are places tourists were usually go or its a hotspot for tourists. It could be printed on wallpaper.

44101	United States Kailua	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!" - CQ	Multilingual Hawaiʻi
