My dream is to learn the Hawaiian language and you’re making it possible for me thank you so much💖
@Amanda De los santos Mahalo for the feedback!
Yay! Happy to support you in your Hawaiian language journey!
Aloha
I just learned the vowel pronunciation is important, by changing a vowel to long or short can change a whole word meaning
Same its my dream to learn Hawaiian and move to Hawaii
I feel like I’m watching Dora bc I’m speaking to the screen again lol
My family looking at me weird
Yeah!!just like dora, dora who love vowels.
i feel ya when they said aloha it was like instinct to respond
😂
Lol
I appreciate "make it easier, make it one word " it's really important at this stage for beginners ❤❤❤❤
I’m Hawaiian and always wanted to learn how to speak Hawaiian because my grandma can and I don’t want the language to die out thank you❤️ I always wanted to be closer to my culture.
heʻaha makemake ʻoe e ao i ka olelo hawaii
Aloha, You may be Kanaka Maoli. Look into the history of why our language is dying. Dig into the culture. Much love.
Hawaiian is a language not a blood gene thing. Lol
@@angiesworld8038 Hawaiian is a gene thing. We are a race of people, Kanaka Maoli.
Mahalo!
this may seem silly but i saw on tiktok that the hawaiian language is slowly dying out but i’ve heard it spoken here and there and i feel like it’d be very sad if that were to happen, plus i’ve been looking for a language to get into so i’m here to learn 😊😊
💖💖💖💖
It *was* dying, now it's coming back.
Navajo needs to be spoken more. And other native tribe languages
Duolingo offer Hawaiian for free.
@@Angel-rk1sb Navajo is so damned hard to find recording of though and I actually have pure Navajos (still living on the rez) married into my family. Do you know any sources by chance?
found myself yelling at the screen at 2am, you guys are amazing lmao
Hahahagagag ME RIGHT NOW
Nice
Message
I was born on Oahu in but i moved away when i was young and none of my family is Hawaiian so i'm trying to learn for myself.
Thatʻs amazing! E holomua!
Do not give up, you owe it to yoursels and your heritage.
@@it2313 I mean he/she just said they aren't Hawaiian so wym your heritage he/she ain't Hawaiian
Same
Duolingo has free courses in Hawaiian that you can conveniently do on your phone.
Mahalo!
I plan on learning Hawaiian in the future and support its "revival". As someone who's learning an African language (Swahili), I've learned how important language is to a peoples' culture, history, and pride. I hope for Hawaiian to become the language of Hawaii once again!
@MobbinMic Mahalo for your support! We enjoy encouraging the use the Hawaiian language. As with many languages, it's a beautiful thing!
1:24: Pehea ‘oe meaning “how are you”
2:37: Maika’i meaning “good”
This was incredibly helpful! My wife and I will be visiting Maui soon. Thanks you so much. Aloha!
@Dale N Mahalo for watching. Enjoy your visit to Maui! Hope you can use some of these phrases.
@@speakhawaiian7323 We definitely will! 😀
@@speakhawaiian7323 I learned some stuff from Duolingo
Mahalo for this amazing video!
Did you end up going to Maui? If so, I hope you had a good time! Maui is definitely beautiful... I live on the Big Island and couldn't be happier living here, with Kauai being a close second. Maui is too tourist for daily life in my tastes, but I do enjoy visiting it as it is absolutely lovely.
Hawaiian belongs to a family of languages called austronesian family of languages, we are a lot in the family from Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia to others.
Proof?
The magic word is "lima" and "mata"
The easiest language😂😂
My wife and I are moving to Oahu next year, and I did not want to arrive from the mainland without a strong knowledge and respect for the culture of Hawai'i. Thank you for helping to educate those of us who otherwise wouldn't be!
Did you end up moving to O‘ahu? I love visiting there, but with the insane tourism, I can't imagine living there... I finally moved to Hilo in August (I've lived there for a year before back in 2013 - 2014), and now that I'm here, I have no intentions of ever leaving. I would consider living on Kauai as well as it is beautiful and less touristy there, but O‘ahu and Maui are way too crazy for me.
Kia ora (hello) from Aotearoa (New Zealand) fellow polynesians. It's so cool to see how similar our languages are. I speak fluent Te reo Māori (Māori language) and I guessed immediately what 'pehea 'oe?' meant. In Māori language we say 'Kei te pehea koe?'.
Sistah, we are cousins, ‘oia.
Pehea ʻoe = how are you? 🌺
The okina (‘) or glottal stop signifies that a letter is missing in or before a word It is usually a (k).
In Hawaiian whenever two vowels are together there must be glottal stop between them e.g. ka’a = or car in Hawaiian which is now pronounced as two syllables.
Hokulea, 3 syllables, Hokule’a, 4 syllables.
omg i’m polynesians and aotearoa is one of the countries my polynesians blood comes from. a ton of my family currently lives there. i was born and raised in australia like my younger brother where as my sister was born and raised in new zealand(she’s older). i love how close we all are (us polynesians) even if we never met. we are all kanaka. my polynesian blood comes from aotearoa, tahiti, hawai’i, samoa, and tonga. kia pai to ra my friend〜
Olelo Hawaii and olelo Maori are surprisingly similar, with very small differences between some words. For example, the word for 'warrior' in olelo Hawaii is "Koa." For Olelo Maori, the word is "Toa."
Honestly thank you so much for allowing us to learn about your culture and language
Thank you for this video! I am a Montessori teacher in Nashville Tennessee. My students are from Age 3 to 5 years old. We have been learning how to say hello in different languages. One of my students wanted to know how to say hello in Hawaiian because her grandparents had recently visited there. I can't wait to share this with them next week!
Glock este numero uno...
...para tontos baratos sin dinero. tu necesitas una pistola buena sin plastico.
We're gonna do more together in 2020
Corona:
R u sure about that
I do love your videos by the way🤗
Aloha! Mahalo piha! Hoping for better days soon!
New subscriber. I think my grandparents will be proud I’m learning😍 their native language.
You can take your dead hawaiian language to Europe!!!!
I love this! I'm 61, and it is better late than never I say. Although I am "haole", I am mixed race, and in my journey of self-discovery, I am connecting with the Hawaiian language, in that, my great grandmother was all Hawaiian, and the language and the spirituality of ancient Hawaii makes me feel alive, and connected to my ancestors. I love your energy, the playfulness, and integrity of the lesson and look forward to practicing and more!
Haole here as well, but I would like to show my respect to these beautiful islands and Hawaiian culture and at least learn basic Hawaiian.
I absolutely adore living in Hawaii (Hilo) and now that I am finally here, I plan to never move again.
I love the engagement! I truly feel like we’re talking to each other. Very unique strategy I’ve never seen anything like it on TH-cam. Thanks. I’m excited to visit Oahu this upcoming Saturday 4/10/21.

I'm grateful of learning Hawaiian language
i'm born and raised in Honolulu
the youngest of the 4 of us in Mom and Dad
But i think i'm the only one yearning to learn and appreciate from Kanaka Maolis and kanaka Kupunas the Hawaiian 🌺 life
maHalokai a haika lo
Love this ladies! Great style! "No Tro all your Stuffs on top of Them" Yes! Screemahs! Mahalo nui from Moku o Keawe
@ MaunaBuilt Mahalo piha 🤙
So excited to be learning with you, I'm a total beginner. I love the sound of Hawaiian and want to visit one day (when all the current craziness is over). I started on Duolingo but there are no explanations, you have to work all the grammar out yourself, so I'm looking forward to learning lots. Thank you for your videos and your channel. Mahalo!
Y'all are such a gas:)))) young Hawaiian here, left O'ahu when I was young and been trying to learn Hawaiian for a few years. Everyone tells me I should learn the more "mainstream" languages, like Spanish or French, but my pu'uwai is set on Hawaiian! Mahalo nui loa for the videos! So excited to learn more. Subscribed :D
I’ve been learning Hawaiian because my partner is Hawaiian and speaks the language. I’m practicing on Duolingo but this format is super helpful! Thank you!
My mom said that if I could learn to speak Hawaiian fluently then she will take me to Hawaii 🌺
I love Hawaii and get to go back again in a few weeks! You guys are adorable! I plan to learn 100 words and phrases before I get there!!
I know how to read and pronounce words, as I grew up hearing it around me but never got to learn the precious language of my ancestry and ethnicity. Sadly, but its not too late. I am grateful for yall. Mahalo.
I was born on the islands and lived there till I was eight. I swear this video has unlocked something. Pretty much everything you said in Hawaiian was somehow in English for me lol. Ah to go back to elementary school in Hawaii where almost all the teachers used Hawaiian to give directions, Hana Hou! being number one.
Thank you! Going to your home for a visit and want to learn basic things to be respectful. Aloha!
Being a young kanaka maoli on the main land, raised off of old Hawaii, not being able to speak as much of my native tongue as I would like anymore. these videos make me so happy thank you sm! very much appreciated!
I am going to Hawai'i and I am so excited - we love the culture ( my husband and I) I am very appreciative for your videos.
My father grew up in hawaii, and I have hawaiian blood but never got to learn the launguage and really appreciate this video 🤙❤
You are EXCELLENT teachers! Thanks!!
THANK YOU FOR THE LESSONS! You’re both amazing teachers!
@Miriam Nugal Mahalo for the support! We enjoy helping anyone wanting to learn.
Speak Hawaiian aloha from Cali! ☺️ Are you based in Oahu? (Visiting in a couple months) Do you guys have learning books for sale??
@@miriam7741 How exciting to hear that you will be visiting. Yes we are on Oahu. We don't have books to sell. But we do have a live web class coming soon.
It is my Dream to learn hawaiian ❤️
You can do it!
Ive always wanted to go to Hawaii and I don’t know when I’ll be able to but I’ve always admired the Hawaiian culture and thought the language was beautiful. So here I am and I’m so glad I found your page!!
ALOHA 👋 THANKS THIS HELPS ALOT BECAUSE I'M LEARNING DIFFERENT LANGUAGES EVERYDAY SO THAT MY PORTUGUESE HUSBAND THAT LIVES IN VENEZUELA FAMILIES CAN UNDERSTAND ME MORE BETTER FOR EVERY YEAR BECAUSE HE'S PORTUGUESE AND I'M GOING TO TEACH HIM SOME HAWAIIAN WHEN I LIVE WITH HIM SOON
Oh, my gosh. I’m leaving Hawaiʻi in a WEEK after spending my entire adult life here, and I’m so happy to have found this channel.
I’m going back to my hometown, but Hawaiʻi has been my home since I was 17 - and I’m nearly 30 now. I know I’ll miss it terribly, as I’ve made my own little family on-island. I truly regret not studying while here and surrounded by local speakers I was close with!
Having said that, I’m looking forward to sharing the love and values I DID learn here with the people I come across while away from home. Thank you so, so much for this resource. 💞
Hawaii has so much culture! I love it!
Thank you for these videos! As someone who lives in Hawaii, I would very much like to be able to speak Hawaiian and you two are charming and make it seem like it will be fun to learn.
I really hope the Hawaiian language doesn't die out. Thank you for teaching us
You guys are so cute together
Mahalo nui loa!
I have always been very intrigued by Hawaiian language and eventually want to visit Hawaii
Aloha! Hope you found this video helpful!
You guys are incredible, mahalo! Preserving this beautiful language should be a prioriry!
Recently employed by a Hawaiian based company, and thank you for the basics!
I feel like I've learned more from this video than I do staring at words with language apps
I grew up on Maui, but before immersion. This is helpful to remember and learn.
Hello my name is Lorena Ford I had just learned that I'm 49% austronesian. And because of that I am willing and in Dyer want to learn my native language. I know my biological father is from the island of Kauai oh, and my sister was born in Honolulu. I do know how to sing happy birthday in Hawaiian, and I taught myself how to count to 10 in Hawaiian. I am so excited that you guys have opened up this TH-cam channel and have subscribed and excited to see what more can I learn.
We are on Maui right now and that’s why I looked up this video. Very helpful. Mahalo
Thanks to these two beautiful woman for helping me learn a few words to relate to my Hawaiian friend.
Your guys are just amazing full of light!!! Much love from israel
Wow! This is the best! I can engage in your lessons for hours! I love the repeating, it’s really helpful. Mahalo!
Maikaʻi nō ʻolua i ka wikiō. Makemake au e ʻike i nā wikiō hou!
@Aaron Fransisco Mahalo iā 'oe no ka nānā 'ana mai.
I love you, ladies, you are so fun to work with, so talented and you have great personalities. I have been to Hawai'i once and I never knew what the apostrophe stands for so I started to read about the beautiful language. I hope to go there again, I love the people and I just wish the kingdom were restored and you had your freedom. So much injustice.
I LOVED this video!!! I learned so much just from this one video! Your enthusiasm was contagious!!
Thank you so much. I love the words on the screen. it helped me know what is being said just in case I was not hearing it right
@The School of Mu Mahalo for the feedback!
Yeah, and its my dream to learn Hawaii 💞 thank you so much again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow! I’m so glad I found y’all! I have been looking for a Hawaiian 🌺 beginners class to learn the language! And i absolutely loved this first video thank you!!
One suggestion. You could make videos, with simple everyday conversations. Having breakfast with the family. Going to the supermarket. Going to stores. Having ice cream. I think it would help Hawaiian language students a lot.
Well you two certainly woke me up! I was just about to take myself off to bed after a YT surf late at night and I thought "How do I say a tiny bit more than Aloha?". And then I found you. Thank you! I now know two more words (AND I took notes too). Suscribed. I went to Oahu for the first time a couple of years ago and found a very special place indeed. I can't put my finger on what it was exactly but it hooked me. Now I can't stop thinking about when I can go back.
Cheers!
We're vacationing to Hawaii soon and this will help a lot. Thanks and kudos. Hope to learn more Hawaiian words.
So happy to learn Hawai'ian ❤ Thank you so much, there is so much joy, love and happiness in this video 😊 I'm happy 😊 I hope I will learn to say that in Hawai'ian soon ❤❤❤
Thank you folks you great👍
Thank you so much! This is great and helpful. My boyfriend is born and raised Honolulu so I definitely would love to learn before we move to Hawaii. Aloha & mahalo nui!
Glad it was helpful!
You are so refreshing to this old fut.....love learning from you....mahalo and please continue as far as you can...#Corona Virus Lockdown..
Keep safe during this time. And keep learning Hawaiian with us!
I came here to learn as much as I can about the Hawaiian language.. my hope is to take my grand babies for their 5yr old birthday to the Islands.. I am going to start introducing these words to them now ..I ❤️ your videos and hope you continue making them 🥰
going to hawaii next year and i think it’ll be helpful to learn some of the native language before going! so excited.
Mahalo nui loa. Greetings from Costa Rica, Latin America.
Thank you so much. I love your video. You are excellent teachers .
Love those Hawaiian smiles and thanks for the lesson. I look forward to using what I've learned when I return to Kauai forever.
This language is so beautiful thanks for sharing
I’m currently learning Hawaiian and it’s a little easy because it’s in the same language group as Te Reo Māori. It’s fun and exciting dialects.
Thank you so much for these videos! I am from Ireland. I play a lot of ukulele and I also teach it. I would love to visit Hawaii someday but I want to learn a few phrases before I go. I find it quite difficult but I'd love to be able to have a basic conversation. Mahalo!
Mahalo for visiting our channel! We have other videos in this series. Hope you can check them out and if you have any suggestion on what you would like to see in a conversation, please leave a comment!
My name is ola and i feel in love with its meaning in Hawaiian language so here I am trying to learn Hawaiian language cause i love it now
Aloha , I felt lots of positive enegry when I watched your video
I thank you
I love your teaching style! Mahalo 🙏🏼
Thank you so much! ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ this video make me happy!!!! I'm so happy that i found you!!!!!
So glad you find this video helpful!
thank you so much for helping me so much to learn Hawaiian language
Me and my friend are wanting to learn Hawaiian so she can truly connect with her culture. Her mom never taught her Hawaiian, and she never knew why. I am an Indigenous person of Mexico (Mixteco) and I want to keep endangered languages alive for future generations. Hawaiian is a beautiful language that is not often spoken amongst Hawaiian families that are from the mainland (from my experience) 😓
Thank u ... Im indian . Im so much influenced by hawain culture ..thanks for this.... Aloha !!!
Mahalo! I am in love with the hawaiian language so truly mahalo SO MUCH haha
aloha! very "maika'i" video. this video was very awesome. you both are so likeable and sympathic, that it gives me a really good mood! 👍
The Hawaiian language is beautiful.
Wow this language is so cool and interesting! Anyone here who are Native Speakers of Hawaiian Language?
Aloha! You 2 are super cool and bring some pep (as we say in Germany) to learning a new language. I met someone from Hawaii at my work and am interested into the language. Thank you for teaching us ♡♡♡
Moved to Hawaii to learn more about some of my ancestors, mahalo so much
Love you guys! So fun and upbeat.
Beautiful language so grateful ❤thank you
I have recently dove into Hawaiian history and genealogy so I am hoping to learn the language. Thank you!!
I'm so excited to learn 'Ōlelo Hawai'i. Not going to lie, I tried it on Duolingo and got hooked! But it's so difficult to find other resources for learning the language. I'm glad that I've found your channel! Mahalo!!
Aloha! Yes finding resources is a challenge. We try to include things that will be helpful. If you have any suggestions, please leave us a comment.
You guys are so funny thank you for this video!!
I want more! 🤩 this is so awesome!!⭐⭐⭐
Im Maori from nz and our languages are so similar, no wonder i feel such a connection to Hawaii even tho ive never been there
I will be moving to the Big Island on 5/25/23 and need to learn how to pronounce the names on each of the street signs etc because I will be assisting guests and I’d prefer not embarrass myself! 😅
Aloha! Awesome video and very fun way to learn, I will be practicing Mahalo!
I'm going to Hawaii in a few months and I thought it would be fitting to try and learn as much of the language as possible! Besides, it's very beautiful as well!
🌺That's so cool! I'm from Bulgaria and my dream is one day to visit Hawaii !🌺Very cool language will try to learn ,fun fact maika means mother in bulgaria and maika'i means her/his mother! 🙃
Mahalo for sharing those fun facts! We love learning about languages and people in different places.
ALOHA Ladies :) Im planning on moving to Hawaii and this is perfect!!!!! Big Mahalo!
Wow! Thatʻs awesome!
I hope you tone this for kupuna. I speak local Hawaiian/pidgin. But to formalize to Hawaiian will be a challenge, so I signed up hoping to learn you guys can help me transition to understanding more and more Hawaiian.
I’m moving in November!!!!! THANK YOU LADIES!
