(SP) This is a photo of a bench on a corner in the domain of a public park. It is permanent and it’s medium is stone. It is a quote in Hawaiian and I’m not sure what it’s saying, though it may be a popular or familiar quote among Hawaiian speakers, or it could just be a one off quote that was added for decoration. It is clearly made for Locals who understand Hawaiian, because anyone who can’t speak the language obviously won’t get much from it. It’s meant to make the bench and stone structure more beautiful and connected to the state of Hawai'i and its history.

(SP) this is an impermanent plastic and paper sign in our elevator in the domain of shared living/education. It uses the word Kokua as in please help (the community). It’s reminding people to social distance during Covid. The majority of the sign is in English because it needs to be understood by everyone who lives here, who may or may not be from Hawai'i. The meaning of Kokua isn’t too hard to figure out even if you aren’t from Hawai'i, and it may have been added to add a more “Hawaiian” atmosphere to the dorm and also because Kokua is an important and commonly heard concept in Hawai'i.

(SP) this is an impermanent paper poster on the wall in a dorm building, in the domain of community living/education. At the top is says “eh, howzit?” which is a common Pidgin phrase used to ask what’s up or how’s it going. However in this case, it’s used on a poster advertising mental health and academic resources, so it really is asking “how’s it going? Are you ok?”. This poster is in a dorm with people from all over the world, so the majority of it is in English so that it can be understand by more people. The Pidgin may have been added to add more of a sense of “Hawaiian” and grab people’s attention.
