Olelo Hawaii in Kahana & Hauula: Stories with Keao NeSmith – Part 2
Aloha hou mai!
This week, we’re picking up right where we left off with my good friend, Dr. Keao NeSmith. In this episode, Keao invites us into the heart of Kahana Valley, sharing stories of his childhood, where he and his cousins played in the lush landscape. He also takes us to Hauula, where he immersed himself in the Hawaiian language while living with his grandmother, a native speaker who shaped much of his learning. To deepen the connection, Keao reads a heartfelt letter from her, written in Hawaiian. So sit back, listen closely, and enjoy this deep and insightful conversation.
For you olelo Hawaii teachers and students out there, I hope you will make use of this in your learning of the Hawaiian language. Keao was one of the few fortunate people of his generation that heard and learned Hawaiian from his grandparents generation who were native speakers. As we continue to learn and teach, we must take it upon ourselves to assimilate the speech of our kupuna who were native speakers.

Okina and Kahako: Why I Don’t Use Them
Переглядів 1,8 тис.2 місяці тому
Aloha hou mai! This week, I'm back with a hot topic: the use of okina and kahako in written Hawaiian. In this video, I touch upon the reasons why I don’t use them when I write, and why I choose not to use them when teaching my students. There are many symbols for English that represent sounds made in that language. I encourage you to look into the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) to learn ...

Mahalo for the english. Itʻs a good reference when learning
He wikio waiwai loa no ka ulu ana o ka oleo hawaii. Aloha no ia laua no keia makana nani. Aole hiki iau ke maopopo i ka mea apau, aka, he mele no ka pepeiao no hoʻi e. "Ko mou ko mamua keia he honua lepo no one no ma o ulu nahehele like no me kena. Ua hele loa au ma anei nei. O kou wa liilii ua loaa ka, ua paʻi kii, a , he kii onioni nui. " I look forwards to learning from this. Thank you for helping grow the language. It is greatly appreciated.
Ua hoolohe maoli no oe! E hoomau no kakou i kela ao me ka hoolaha ana i ka olelo o Hawaii nei. Mahalo nui ia oe
@@kaalala aloha pumehana ia kaua. Ae, ua hoomaka au i ka lohe kupono, aka, aole pau i ka hana, a laila, ae, hiki ia maua ke hoolaha i ka ole o Hawaii nei. He hana waiwai loa ia.
Man so similar to cookisland Māori - Kiaorana, pe’ea koe? Meitaki lol
We’re cousins for sure haha
This is very interesting. Didn’t know this about the word aloha
Mahalo no teia wikio e palala. Ke Ho’oma’a nei wau I ta ‘Ōlelo Hawai’i piha no ku’u ‘Ohana. E lohe mai ia’u ka leo kūpuna me ‘oe, piha no ho’i. Mahalo iā’oe no ka ho’omau ana I ka ‘Ōlelo kūpuna a me nā leo Maoli. Mahalo ia lakou no ka hana pono i ho’omau no matou.
Mahalo ia oe no ka nana ana mai i keia nei. Ka hoolohe ana aku i ka poe kupuna ka mea nui. Nui ka poe e ao nei i keia wa, kakaikahi wale no ka poe e minamina nei i ka olelo mawaena o ka poe i hanai a hanau ia ma ka olelo kanaka o ka wa kahiko.
I hear this split across Molokai where theyʻll either say it with or without the ʻokina. I think it was when it was put into writing it went through a lot of changes and the ʻokina got added. I donʻt remember it too well anymore though.
Kupuna born and raised in olelo Hawaii and on that island are who I was reference. They were born in the late 1800s and early 1900s. It doesn’t get any more legit than that. I’m grateful their voices were recorded so we could know today 💯
Omg! We are related. My great grandparents, great aunties and uncles are from Kahana and that is the grave in Kahana, where they passed away from the hurricane on April Fools’ Day 1946. Everyone thought the hurricane was a April fools joke.
Glad we all got to meet the other day!
Manaia tele le fa’alogo atu i le gagana fa’a Hawaii. Hope more Hawaiians will learn and speak their olelo Hawaii ❤
Ke mahua ae nei no. Appreciate the support. Mahalo🤙
mio loa cheehee
I wish they made translation for hawaiian for the close captioning... mahalo
🤎🤎🤎

Mahalo, @ka_alala and Keao NeSmith for sharing your ohana moʻolelo.
A very enjoyable two part interview.
Mahalo nui for watching! Appreciate it
REAL WALA'AU KANAKA IA CONVERSATIONAL NOT FOR WRITTEN. EVERYONE WHO LEARNED VIA UNIVERSITY GOT MORE LOST FROM THE GRAMMAR BEING ADDED. FOR LEARN FASTER, YOU GUYS WHO IS FROM HAWA'I, THINK PIDGIN HAOLE 1ST, THE USE THAT FOR WALA'AU.
Thats me lol😢...ke ao nei au i ke olelo hawaii but hillahila au because even if Kaimi put himself at level 1 (which I don't like doing number levels either lol) then I guess I'd put myself at like .00001 😅
Keep up the good work. As long as you’re progressing you’re on the right track
🤎🤎🤎
Cheeehoo! Mahalo! No ka kanaka oiwi stuck in Utah!!!
Content for kanaka everywhere! mahalo
Wawa ka mele. Ale hiki ke lohe maikai

beautiful kahana, the piko of Hawaii. This brings a tear to my eye. such a beautiful and important place, and one that holds some of my earliest memories. No place exemplifies "aina" like this. mahalo nui.
Appreciate the comment. Glad you enjoyed watching 🤙
Maita’i nui no ta ite o teia moolelo waiwai teia ite. Mahalo nui

What a beautiful language!
I’ve always been interested in the small details of functional language. Love hearing about moments like yours. Thank you 🤙🏾
Perfect for you then! Appreciate you
❤❤❤❤
YES! Love the Keao videos! Not only is his expertise unmatched but his passion for the language as the way kupuna spoke is so evident and has been incredibly helpful on my own learning journey. One day I'm going to be able to read the novels he translated!
His translation work is quite extensive so that would be an accomplishment 💯
Which books has he translated?
@@kaimaluharmon1150 Off the top of my head he's done The Hobbit, Alice in Wonderland, Harry Potter, and The Little Prince. He mentioned in the Keep It Aloha Podcast that he's currently working on Winnie the Pooh.

I really want to learn Hawaiian and move to Kauai and visit my friends in Kona. Aloha🤙🏼🌺
What part of Kauai?

Great idea! I'll put that on the list.

@ yeah brah, I work at Kualoa. Plenty of my coworkers follow you too and send me this vid and asked if I knew you.
mahalo nui. i cannot stand tryna learn grammar 🎉 😅
Haha. Hopefully this kind of content helps.
🤎🤎🤎
This was very cool to see and hear. Although I lived in Hawaii for 22 years, I didn't hear Hawaiian spoken like this. Immersion schools were in their infancy at that time. Like most people, I learned specific Hawaiian words and phrases but not how to speak Hawaiian. If I can ever move back to the Islands, I think I would like to learn more olelo Hawaii. It is exciting to see the revival and perpetuation of the Hawaiian language, since it is so critical to the preservation of the Hawaiian culture. Without it Hawaii is not truly Hawaiian. It's just another beautiful place with some influences from a lost culture. What a shame it would be to lose such a rich and beautiful culture. Thank you for doing your part to keep it alive!🤙
Amene!
❤❤❤
Laki ‘oe😊
Laki no wau
I really wish this videos would blow up in the way they deserve to be!
Wow. I appreciate that. One day. One day.
Hoomau.
