47176	United States Honolulu	AJR - Check In #3 This picture displays graffiti on a dumpster. In my understanding, the word “moke” refers to a male local of Hawaii, most often of Native Hawaiian descent, who partakes in activities such as fishing, BBQing, things of the like. The idea is that a “moke” is a true local of the islands. The intended audience can be considered to be anyone that sees this dumpster, however, with the message included it may be geared more towards locals who understand the meaning of the word	Multilingual Hawaiʻi

47181	United States Honolulu	AJR - Check In #3 This picture shows a greeting sign outside of a shopping center in Kalihi that is solely in Hawaiian. We don’t see signs like this that are only in Hawaiian; they are usually accompanied by at least a few words in English. The intended audience can be considered to be either tourists or locals. I say this because promoting signs like this may be with misguided intentions, such as attracting attention from tourists rather than promoting more of a local/Hawaiian status in the island	Multilingual Hawaiʻi
