    I’m Filipino and I have family in Hawaii. I always get asked if I’m local cause I’m big and dark lol. A local out there was saying it’s hard to find true Hawaiians since Filipinos and Japanese have lived in the area so long and adopted the culture.

      @@isthisquynhnhi right. A native has a Hawaiian bloodline. A local is born and raised.

    The tiers, at least in Oahu. I'm not sure about everywhere else:
    Tier 1. Native Hawaiian. Most are mixed with something else, but having Native Hawaiian blood makes you top tier. If you're mixed with Hawaiian, then your other ethnic group doesn't really matter.
    Tier 2. Other Polynesians (Samoans, Tongans). Local Filipinos (Ilocanos). They usually live in the hood areas like Kalihi and Waipahu. Being brown helps these groups.
    Tier 3. Local Japanese. They're like the white people of Hawaii. They're the wealthiest ethnic group, but Hawaiians still view them as locals because they mostly live humbly.
    Hapas- if you're mixed with Hawaiian, then you're tier 1. If you're Asian and white mixed, then you're in this tier (3)
    Portuguese- spicy white. Been in Hawaii for many generations. Seen as locals. A lot of them are mixed with Native Hawaiian, so they go up to tier 1 if they are
    Other Local Asians- Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese, etc.
    Tier 4. Micronesians and new Filipino immigrants (mostly Tagalog & Visayans). They're mostly poor. Locals aren't fond of them because they seem to be taking over, but they're still seen as better than whites.
    Other new Asian immigrants- Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese, etc.
    Tier 5. Local whites besides Portuguese.
    Tier 6. Japanese tourists. They're the most loved tourists but you'll find some locals who don't like them.
    Tier 7. White tourists. Not loved at all

    It's a level thing Native Hawaiians who have more then half of Hawaiian blood in the bloodline is native but the bloodline has to go way back to like the 1700s or something your ancestors come from Hawaii.
    Hawaiian is kind of a term for someone born and raised in Hawaii with less then half Hawaiian blood diluted bloodline.
    Kama'aina someone who's from Hawaii but they're whatever ethnicity (i.e. Japanese boy born and raised in Hawaii)
    Haóle which means No Breath coined by Hawaiians originally about the missionaries who landed in Hawaii (Captain Cook times) but over time it has become more focused on meaning white people. (Each race has nicknames for people from Hawaii)
    All in all I think we're pretty welcoming just don't come to Hawaii with the mentality that you can do whatevers because there's alot of cultural places here with history that still mean something to us. If people see those places getting disrespected or our animals (i.e. Turtles, Monk Seals, Dolphins) Locals get pretty nuts. 🤣

    • @joneyC
      @joneyC 2 роки тому +1

      Haole always meant "foreign" in 'olelo Hawai'i. It is a very old word that already existed in Kumulipo. It does not mean "no breath", that is a popular belief but its not true. Hā is loaded with a lot of connotations. It's like the life or mana of the land. Putting the word into context, the word implies that the thing in question is not of the land.

    What I was taught is pidgin came from the Asian locals that was working the rice fields. They used pidgin as a “shortened” language since they were under watch and wasn’t allowed to talk. “Haole” means no breath, basically it means you have no breath of life or ha. And yea pidgin comes and goes, we live vegas and only use pidgin at home or when talking to our friends and family because even if it’s English per se we are still not understood when talking to someone lol.

    The tourism industry makes Hawai'i so desirable and makes mainlanders and foreigners want to move here. Thats one of the major reasons cost of living is so high: desirable by HAOLES.

    He said he’s from San Diego so it makes sense he talks like he’s from the plastic side of Los Angeles. Even if he spoke well, you would still be able to hear the intonation. To claim Hawaii, you have to be born and raised in Hawaii. These are the facts.

      We also say things like "they're funny" but it means they're slow, or it's hard for them to comprehend things. So it's not a complement if a native grandma calls you funny. (it's not really used by city natives)

    There's also tiers of the "real" Hawaiians and locals. The cities where most of the hotels are and restaurants are. Are mainly " white Hawaiians" there real Hawaiians just not the true representation of Hawaiians. There mostly nicer, more calm, and look more touristy and talk more proper. Once you start going to the Westside or the north shore side. Then you'll meet the "REAL" Hawaiians. All the Tongan Hawaiians, samaoan Hawaiians, your typical , 6, 3 280 lb local braddah. The most nicest people you'll ever meet in your life, but absolutely no tolerance of disrespect. That's where you'll here them start talking a little funny. (PIDGIN) but us locals always welcome the tourist but just show aloha and everybody show aloha back. Cheehee also if you want a quick look at what a real Hawaiian acts look up tumua, he's a local comedian. And also haole is not a bad word lol open to any questions that went unanswered.
