Well this was unintentionally well timed with my video haha!
I was so amazed seeing both vids back to back in my feed! Cool coincidence!
Whatifalthist did one too
Crick1952 or Monsieur Z
@@belgrifex link please... my Hawaiiana is at grade school level, and since I'm older now I'll have a better understanding and can see the parallels :)
@@Crick1952 he’s biased
I’m part Hawaiian and I have them in my tree. I’ve been waiting for this video!
Mariah Delapenia I am honored to be in your presence my lady. Hope the monarchy is restored to its rightful place.
Nibba Nibba - I wouldn’t call myself royalty even though I’m related to them. We’re cousins (1st-2nd and 1-3 times removed depending on which monarch we’re referring to), but I still have more research to do for my genealogy.
I would like to put you in my family tree, woot woot
Mike Murdoch does your family tree go in a straight line?
Mike Murdoch - Are you part Hawaiian?
Mahalo a nui for this video. Quentin Kawānanakoa’s great-great-granduncle, Prince Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaʻole, also served as an elected representative of Hawaiʻi to the US Congress, making him the only person elected to US Congress to have been born a royal. Prince Kūhiō, like his brother David Kawānanakoa, were both considered eligible heirs to the throne at the time of the overthrow.
so if he gets govenor he can become prince-govenor like Mr napoleon 3
I pointed out that the federal building is named after him, could it be because of him being a congressman, if so then that's very fitting, and I think it's also kind of close to the palace too.
The Hapsburgs are looking at this tree with envy
Pretty Pic Habsburgs
What do u mean? I can't see any inbreeding!
@@Lord_Raymund That's why
Sometimes you just gotta keep it in the family bro, sure you might get some defects but it’s like Tyrion Lannister said, “if you’re going to be a cripple, it’s better to be a rich one”
Sίɍ Ɽαƴ oh, it’s there. trust me.
Polynesian words having the form of consonant-(short)vowel-consonant-(short)vowel are stressed on the penult. So the sounds of MEHA in isolation are méha. Reduplication makes that méheméha. KA, which begins many of these names, is simply a determiner (article), roughly equivalent to English "the," and it takes no stress. So Kámehámehá isn't so good, and Kaméhaméha is better. Incidentally, mehameha means 'silent, solitary, lonely; silence, solitariness, loneliness', apparently making his name mean something like 'The Silence', 'The Solitary One', and so forth. Most Polynesian names have semantic meaning like that.
doesnt Kaméhaméha get that name from the fact he was kind scary to his ''king'' making him heir to the postion of the war gods keeper and isolating him from the court?
You are correct on the pronunciation. All Hawaiian names have semantic meaning. Kamehameha is usually translated as "the lonely one"
I don't know if he was named the lonely one because he was the guardian of the war-god Kū or not.
@@despaahana just a thing i heard.
So Kids dont use that in your papers
You literally made that up lmao
I tell oha na kam eha meh a. Imagine wahine in labor... 🫵😊
Aloha mai, UsefulCharts. Mahalo iā ‘oe for your insightful and educational video on Hawai’i’s royal lineage, Matt. May I ask your viewers to remember that you are not from Hawai’i, were not raised in Hawai’i, and do not speak Hawaiian?
With that being said, you did your absolute best in enlightening us with the history of the Hawaiian Kingdom and I for one am extremely grateful for your efforts. Mahalo pū mākou iā ‘oe nō ka hana maika’i loa. 🌺
Thank you so much Chris!
ʻAe. Haoʻoli au a hoʻāʻo ʻoe. ʻOia ka mea nui.
Although I do wish he had said “overthrow” instead of “annexation.”
What exactly is the point that he is not from Hawaii? Speak Hawaiian or raised in Hawaii?
MT Aloha. My point was directed at those who criticized him for his pronunciation of some of the Hawaiian names. My comments referred to a correlation that those born/raised in Hawaii and/or those who ‘ōlelo Hawai’i are likely better able to pronounce Hawaiian words properly; my comments weren’t directed at UsefulCharts or at those who assist in the producing of his videos. A few comments were made by others that one mispronounced syllable in neary any Hawaiian word changes the meaning entirely, so what I wrote was meant to be informational. Hiki iā ‘oe ke maopopo?
I was hoping you would do this tree. I've always been fascinated by the history of the Hawaiian monarchy.
Me too
I had no idea that EmperorTigerstar was doing a video about Hawaii today as well. You should check out his video after this one: ua-cam.com/video/XtjNDI8dEw4/v-deo.html
@UsefulCharts would you like to do an interview with my mother, a direct line heiress of kamehameha the first? She has all of our certified documents regarding our genealogy that ties in as direct lines to many of them. Please let me know as she is willing so you may know more than what you have. Aloha
What about all the monarchs who claim the title King of Jerusalem?
*Viva La Vida intensifies*
They certainly are related but it sounds convoluted.
Archduke Karl of Austria is probably the most legitimate.
That’s not the subject of this video. I’m sure it’s been mapped out somewhere. He has a website where he does sell various charts.
What about em? What are you asking? Lol
Definitely interesting to learn about the Hawaiian monarchy! I'm interested in seeing a video about the Tongan royal house in the future, or perhaps even a video about monarchs of my country Morocco. Please keep up the good work! :)
HassanLechkar yea I would love to see that.
I’m Samoan, I wish we could have a chart as well but our way of governing made it a bit difficult to have one ruler such as the Hawaiians/Tongans did. It would be way too convoluted with the many different branches
I’m Native Hawaiian and I’m part of the Royalty family because I’m the seventh grandson to Kamehameha 1 and his kids are my great uncles as well and my Hawaiian name is an Ali’i name and that’s (Kahoalii)
Facts Tonga til this day still has it's Kingdom unlike all the other surrounding islands.
@@jones9309...that DNT mean shet... That DNT make them any better!
@@ahh-2-ahh It doesn’t mean SHT to you bud but it’s one of the last monarchies in the world. All other islands/countries that once had a kingdom cherish it cause its history passed down for generations to come doesn’t make anyone better just facts!
I'm 100% certain Kamehameha ain't pronounced like that.
Ka- may- ha-may-ha. Accent on the “mays”.
Yes, dragon ball z ruined it. Love the show though!
It made me cringe, but I like this guy. He means well.
here's my way of spelling the pronunciation
"Kuh-may-uh-may-uh"
Logan smith yes it’s pronounced kameeeehameeehaaaaaaaaa!!!
B+ on Pronunciation! You got the sounds right you just didn't say them fast enough for it sound fully correct to my kamaaina ears.
Fun Fact for you! King Kalakaua had ELECTRCITY in Iolani Palace before the White House did. :) He was a very modern, forward thinking King and my favorite Hawaiian Monarch.

most of them
That's to far
I think Mr. Beat (not to be confused with Mr. Beast) did one on this!
Mr. Beat and I actually both covered that topic 😃
@@UsefulCharts I thought you may have as well! You both are some of my favorite channels!
A different part of the world. Can't wait to see more, your videos always make happy and appeal to my autistic mind
Right? I have Aspergers and this is one of my favourite channels!
Nice! I lived in Hawaii for a decade studying at UH and felt really sad with the short lives of some members of the Hawaiian Royal house.
Yes it's very depressing.
KA ME - HA ME - HAAAAAAAAA!
Goku likes this ;)
some say he ruled for over 9000 years!...
Thus the incorrect Hawaiian pronunciation. Dragon Ball z puts the stress on the ha and Hawaiian puts the stress on the me.
Predicted
Everytime he said it I pictured Goku haha
Thank you so much I’ve been waiting for this video for forever
I’d love to see more videos like this of other monarchies outside Europe and Asia.
Came here from your comment on EmperorTigerstar's vid
Worth the wait bro! Thank you so much!
My family was related to the king of hawaii. We still do Hawaiian dances in honour of our family.
Aloha & Mahalo for adding our little Island Kingdom to your Chart Collection 🤙🏽
Another great video, I've been waiting for this. Thank you!
Great video. I have always enjoyed your videos, and I like the direction your are going in. Please keep up the great work.
correction: this is the second dynasty from the pacific region you covered.
Japan?
@@UsefulCharts I mean Japan. Yes.
@@erikperik1671 Good point 😀
LOL Japan is usually considered in the Asian region not Pacific.
@@despaahana I disagree.
Aloha. I found this video from my cousin Maria below. I did not know about this video until just now from a link she shared on Facebook.
I am a direct descendant of Keākealanikāne, the grandfather of Keākealaniwahine. The biggest problem I see with this chart is not showing Kalanikauleleiaiwi as a co-ruler alongside her brother Keaweʻīkekahialiʻiokamoku. Calling him Keawea II is perhaps accurate but not many know this designation.
I am also listed as an 8th great grandson of Kamehameha I from his first marriage and first born, a daughter named Kahiliʻōpua on my grandmother's maternal line but on her paternal line she descended from the former wife of Kalaniʻōpuʻu, Kānekapōlei. She along with the half brother of my 5x great grandmother and a distant cousin named Nuaa, were responsible for the death of Captain Cook. Kamehameha I's father is still hotly debated. Some believe it is Keōua while others believe it was Kahekili II. His mother was Kekuʻiapoiwa II, the daughter of Haʻae-a-Mahi of the House of Mahi. He was the son of Kauaua-a-Mahi (one of my direct ancestors) and Kalanikauleleiaiwi making Kekuʻiapoiwa II a second cousin, 4 x removed.
Hawaiian genealogy is not easy and it is never a good idea to use absolutes when discussing these lines, especially with certain figures. Many families still debate who is related to who and why. But that is the same even in England with the British Monarchy.
I'll have to watch more a length and perhaps comment further.
Mahalo!
As a kanaka I totally appreciate your efforts to properly pronounce my papa olelo (mother language). A few tips.
1)When you see an ʻ called “okina”. It denotes a glottal stop in the pronunciation. Ex: Ahupua’a, pronounced (ahhoopoo-ah). Note the pause.
2) “Hina” is the name of a matron goddess and thus denotes femininity. Kamehameha I wife, Ka’ahumanu made herself Kuhina queen regent and head of the Hawaiian church after the great kings death. She abolished our kapu and replaced it with christianity.
3) Mahalo nui me ke hoaloha!
Alelo makuahine
there is a movie about Victoria Kawēkiu Kaʻiulani Lunalilo Kalaninuiahilapalapa Cleghorn (October 16, 1875 - March 6, 1899) who was the crown princess to the last monarch. she was her niece. it shows how she tried to fight the annexation and work from the inside.
Thanks -- I have dozens of part-native Hawaiians cousins that I've shared this with.
Great effort on the Hawaiian pronounciation - first handful of names you did well! Kamehameha is Ka MAY ha MAY ha though.
Fascinating!!! My favorite so far!
Very unique I love it hope you make more Oceanic Royal Family trees!
Hey Matt how about you do other videos on Polynesian kingdoms? There is so much to explore there, literally many kingdoms and genealogies: Tonga, Easter Island, the Saudeleur Dynasty, the Maori kings, the Kingdom of Tahiti, Rarotonga, Samoa, Wallis et Futuna, Kingdom of Fiji, the Kings of Palau, Niue, Nauru, etc...
Can't wait for you to do more videos about the Monarchs of the Pacific like Aotearoa (NZ), Tahiti, Tonga, Samoa etc, etc...
Having a hard time listening to this video. I'm used to hearing the correct pronunciation of the name of the first ruler of the united Hawaiian Islands as 'ka MEha MEha" with the accent on the "ME." It's actually a little funny to listen to . . .
I tried....
Aloha Yosh. Hawaiian is not an easily learned language, particularly when you did not grow up in Hawaii, hearing Hawaiian words pronounced daily...and honestly even then, people (including people of Hawaiian ancestry) mispronounce words all the time. Hanalulu, anyone?
Mai hana’ino iā ia, mai hana pēlā. ‘A’ole ia he mea, he hana, Hawai’i. Ua hō’ā’o ‘o ia, a pono nō kākou e ulu iā Matt nō ho’i. Mahalo no kou kōkua ana iā mākou e a’o mai e pili ana i na mō’ī o ko’u one hānau. 😊
The pronunciation of Ka'ahumanu was painful as well lol.
oh man i thought it was just me. im hawaiian and im like did i miss who the king was is this someone new lmao
Aloha, mahalo for sharing Hawaiian Monarchy. You did very well with the pronunciation of each name, except Ka--me-ha--me-ha . Ka--a-hu--ma-nu. I understand it is hard to do so :)
You forgot Emma Kalanikaumakaʻamano Kaleleonālani Naʻea Rooke of Hawaiʻi was queen of Hawaii as the wife of King and Chiefess Kapiʻolani. Kamehameha IV from 1856 to his death in 1863.
And last princess Victoria Kawēkiu "Kaʻiulani " Lunalilo Kalaninuiahilapalapa Cleghorn. They all played important roles in our Hawaiian history.
Kaʻiulani is my great, great, great grand-aunt! My grandma was named after her, but it was misspelled on her birth certificate, so her name was written as Kauilani.
@@alexincomputerland Aloha...wow very cool . Are you descendant from the Kahalaunani Grimes Ohana or Makanui Ohana?
@@Artari I'm not sure; I'm just recently learning about the history of my family. I do know that I'm a descendant of the Boyd family! My great, great, great grandpa's name was James Aalapuna Harbottle Boyd, and he married Helen Caroline Maniʻiailehua Cleghorn, who was Kaʻiulani's sister and Queen Liliʻuokalani's niece.

Can you do the REAL Mexican monarchy, by that I mean who would be the heir to the Aztec Throne
The real Mexican monarchy is the Spanish monarchy you colonial.
@@ryanrusch3976 Hahaha... yeah, no.
That monarchy was kicked out Mexico a looong time ago and it was never Mexican so your comment makes no sense.
Mexico had rulers via its various native american empires PRIOR to the arrival of the Spanish. ;)
@@isasolorzano9706 Modern Mexico has more in common with Spain than it ever will with the ancient Aztecs. Many of Mexico's first presidents were Spanish lesser nobility or generals.
@@ryanrusch3976 You are correct, but you've said it yourself: MODERN Mexico.
The original comment mentions talking about the empires of the PAST. Waaaaay before the Spanish and mixed blood reality of today. 👍🏻
@@isasolorzano9706 Damn you and your noticing of my failings. You win this time, but next time you probably will win again.
kah-may-hah-MAY-hah, kah-ah-hoo-MAH-nu, kah-lah-kah-OO-ah (frequently pronounce kah-lah-COW-ah), lee-lee-oo-oh-kah-LAH-nee
the whole native pronunciation screams AFRICA.
I lived in Hawai'i for 3 years. Great video!
Your pronunciation of Kamehameha is making me giggle. It's "ka-MAYHA-MAYHA" :-P
One of the main highways on Oahu is called Kamehameha Highway and it took only one time of us mispronouncing it when we were swiftly corrected lol.
Hot tip, you can watch these videos at 2x speed and they still sound normal.
I would say 1.75x
You pronounced most of the names very well. Except Ka'ahumanu and Kawananakoa. Good job!
Just showed it to a Hawaiian friend of mine and she LOVED it!! Thank you. But we both agree with others who have commented...it should be "Ka may ah may ah". Also love seeing Jack Rackam listed to the side as part of the team.
Tag Along to Our Past - the “h” should indeed be pronounced. I’m afraid there’s a lot of people who mispronounce it these days, including many here in Hawaiʻi. The emphasis here is a bit on the wrong syllables - it should be more like Ka-ME-ha-ME-ha rather than KA-me-HA-me-HA, but the “h” should still be pronounced.
Hawaiian spelling is highly consistent with the phonetics, unlike English. The general rule is to break down each syllable by one letter or a pair of letters (glottal stop included as a letter) and that each syllable ends with a vowel. Vowel sounds generally are like Spanish vowels. And that’s pretty much all you need to know for correct pronunciation.
@@kpaukeaho6180 thank you!
@@kpaukeaho6180 Well, Hawaiian spelling is based on phonemics rather than phonetics. That's why [ p / b ] is spelled with "P", [ k / t ] is spelled with "K", [ l / r ] is spelled with "L", and [ v / w ] with "W", etc. There's some phonetic variation with the vowels too. Many English words were first spelled over 1,500 years ago. Over time, pronunciation shifted, but old spellings remained. The old spellings reflect the old pronunciations. ("silent E" was not silent, etc.)
@@gregcarter8656 yes, it’s true that these phonetic pairs have a degree of interchangeability. Some are dialectic - there was a general [v] to [w] spectrum with some exceptions from east to west across the islands, and [r] was particularly prevalent/persistent among speakers from East Maui. And you’re right that there is some slight dialectical vowel phonetic variation - particularly between [a] and [e] when before [i]. I was simply saying that as a general rule if one pronounces the phonemes phonetically in Hawaiian one doesn’t arrive at a *wrong* pronounciation, which cannot be said for English. I am a speaker of ʻōlelo.
@@kpaukeaho6180 Obviously, there are no audio recordings of spoken Hawaiian from 200 years ago, so nobody can say with certainty, now, exactly how Hawaiian was pronounced during the 1820s. Folks can make educated guesses, but that's ultimately speculation. Likewise for spoken English during 100 A.D. to the 1820s. That said, your characterization of Hawaiian pronunciation looks like it's based on a partial understanding of Elbert, Wilson, and Schutz. In spoken Hawaiian of the past 50 years or so, [ w ] and [ v ] have been essentially in free variation, with no rigidly applicable geographical dialects. Niihauans are known for using [ t ] more often than other Hawaiian speakers, but any speaker of Hawaiian can pronounce / K / as either [ k ] or [ t ] virtually anytime they like, without being misunderstood. Raising of / A / to [ e ] before / I /, and to [ o ] before / U / is a phonological process which is not particularly associated with any geographical dialect.
Comparing Hawaiian spelling to English spelling is comparing apples to oranges. HAW spellings are only about 200 years old, while some ENG spellings are nearly 2,000 years old. When ENG was first spelled using the Roman alphabet, the Romans spelled ENG as they heard it at the time, using the (Roman) letters as best as they could to represent the ENG sounds.
Take the word GOOD. It had a long vowel / O /. That's why it was spelled with 2 "O" letters. It could be alternatively written GŌD. By contrast, take the word GOD. It had a short vowel / O /, so it was spelled with 1 "O" letter. In Old English, GOD and GŌD were a minimal pair. The only difference in sound was the length of the vowel. Some folks think HAW is "special" because it has long vowels. But many other languages have that too, so it's nothing special. Even Old English had some long vowels.
However, languages change over time. ENG went through a pronunciation change known as the Great Vowel Shift. The word GOD shifted to sound like [ gad ]. The word GOOD shifted to sound like [ gUd ] (with "U" representing the vowel sound in current ENG pronunciation of HOOD, COOK, COULD, WOOD, WOULD, SHOULD). Although the pronunciations changed, the spellings did NOT change.
So, GOD and GOOD started off as being phonemic spellings. But after 1,500 to 2,000 years worth of time for shifts in pronunciation, the current sound of these words does not match up perfectly to their ancient spellings, because the vowel sounds have shifted. The ancient consonant sounds remain in these words, but not the vowel sound.
If HAW words had been written down 2,000 years ago, then they would not look the same as they do now, because HAW, like ENG (and virtually all natural human languages), has also undergone shifts in pronunciation over the centuries of time. Ever heard of Proto Polynesian? That's one of the ancestor languages (earlier forms) of HAW. Ever seen "PPN" forms in the Pukui-Elbert Hawaiian Dictionary? Those are the earlier forms (phonemic spellings) of HAW words.
Take the HAW word KŌ. For "sugar cane" the PPN form is TORO. For "long" the PPN form is TOHO. For "fulfill" the PPN form is TOO. If these 3 words were written down way back during PPN times, their spellings would have been TORO, TOHO, and TOO. And now, as HAW words, they are all pronounced KŌ. People would say ---
Hey WTF is going on with this language? Why is a word pronounced [ kō ] spelled TORO?
As a Hawaiian thank you
Idk how I missed this video
How to avoid lesser Dragon Ball reference in comment section just defuse the bomb with a pro tip on the video itself. NOICE lol
And also the wrong pronunciation...🤦
This tree is what the rulers of Hawaii wanted us to see, however there were secret offsprings and siblings from both the Kamehameha and Kalakaua lines that are still living today.
You're right. I'm from the Kamehameha IV line on my father's side & my mother is from the Kalakaua lineage.
@@blueblood723 You must be a pretty close DNA match to my husband. Are you on Ancestry by chance? He is also a descendant from the Kalakaua dynasty.
Hey, nice video man!
Is there any chance that you could do Balkan nations family tree's?
Any coincidence that Master Roshi lives on an Island, wears a Hawaiian shirt and taught Goku the Kamahameha technique? I think not
Yay my week is complete👌 And here is my pronunciation tip, use google translate listening feature with that language the names come from!
That feature is not available for Hawaiian.
I meant for other language
@@RaymondHng haha!👍🏼
I did NOT see "Kamehameha" coming! XD
it sounded like ja ja ja ja basically but its cute
I have a suggestion do the kings of Judea next!
How do you think Hawaii would be doing under King Quentin I?
Prince Kuhio has an avenue (which runs parallel to Kalakaua in Waikiki) named after him (via is second/middle name [as his actual first name is Jonah]) and a highway using his last name. So the only Prince with both his middle (which became adopted as his first) and his last names being used as a street and highway name.
Oh and I almost forgot the federal building is named after him too using his full name. He actually has 3 prominent things on Oahu named after him.
So his full name was: Jonah Kuhio Kalaniala'ole (though I guess it's faster and easier to omit the Jonah, as we don't commonly use it. Unless we're reading the full name of the federal building)
I did some research and there are 3 People who are claimants to the throne. According to the official website Owana Salazar is the recognized Head of the House Hawai’i by some of the defunct Monarchies including Portugal.
Cool. I grew up in Hawaii. I can tell you did your best with the pronunciation of Hawaiian names.
Have you done a chart on the Kingdom of Tonga? My motherland and the only remaining Polynesian Kingdom still in power.
first things that comes to mind is GOku has been blasting his enemies for 30 years by shouting the Hawaiian royal house name. Which means Goku is a Hawaiian monarchy restoration advocate. jk
great video as always.
Perhaps you could do Kings of Cyprus?
The House of M’Banza-Kongo would be interesting for a vid sometime.
My grama showed me a scroll that can go back 28 generations
Kamehameha has to be the best name ever
What sort of program does he use to make these charts
Since we all know that the Hawaii Kingdom was a constitutional monarchy, does anyone know a website where I can find a pdf of the Hawaii Kingdom constitution and a more accurate list of Hawaii’s prime ministers throughout history, that's not Wikipedia or fandom wiki?
Nice video!
One of the spellings of the last house is probably wrong, I guess. You used Kawamamakoa as house name but Kawananakoa as last name.
This is incredible. Where did you gather this information?
can you do genealogy of Indonesia local kingdoms such as Srivijaya or Majapahit? since nobody seems to know about these great kingdoms even though in the ancient time they ruled the spice route in Malacca (before being monopolised by the Portugese and the netherlands) and also ruled a great deal of regions in now known as south east asia.
Can you make video about irish familly O'byrne?
Hi, may I know if what are your references and sources for this video? Thank you so much.
May be it would be interesting to create chart for noble house of Kennedys? :)
Your pronunciation is much better than Google maps, but as someone who lives on Kamehameha Hwy, it's KaMEhaMEha, and don't forget the glottal stop in Ka'ahumanu. Still a great video though.
Is it true, that the current house is named Kawamamakoa but everyone from that house is named Kawananakoa? If so, could you make a video about that?
RIP Princess Abigail Kawānanakoa
Good job bro
Your pronunciation of most of the vowels are correct as the vowels make the same sound every time. Where you get it wrong is where the stresses are. Such as where dragon Ball z puts the stress on the ha in Kamehameha in Hawaiian the stress is on the me. There is also too much stress added on the i in the word kuhina.
Also you're inconsistent on where the 'okina occurs and where it doesn't but it always exists wherever two of the same vowels are seen together, whether or not it is printed. In the case of Ka'ahumanu's name, the 'okina was printed but was not pronounced. It is pronounced as a glottal stop. So the two A's in Ka'ahumanu are separated buy a glottal stop, not one sound
Hawaiian has some words with consecutive identical vowels (aa, ee, ii, oo, uu). Thus, glottal stop does not always occur separating consecutive identical vowels. In fact, most long vowels in Hawaiian are essentially consecutive identical vowels. One could call them "double vowels" or "geminate vowels" (twin vowels). You can see some examples in the Pukui-Elbert Hawaiian Dictionary where both spellings are shown, such as uluulu and ulūlu.
@@gregcarter8656 because of the confusion between the two and because Hawaiian was printed without any grammatical marks for a long time, in modern Hawaiian when a word requires a stress on a vowel it there is always kahako used, never the double vowel as in the words that you gave as examples.
@@despaahana The Hawaiian word HANA has 2 syllables: HA and NA. The 1st syllable is stressed, and the 2nd syllable is not stressed. The 1st syllable does not have a "kahakō", but it is stressed. So, a kahakō is NOT always used when a vowel is stressed. Same thing with the word ULU. My examples are from the Hawaiian Dictionary by Pukui and Elbert, page 370, left column, at the top, and again at the bottom. Look it up. Youʻll see.
ULUULU is the reduplication of ULU. Same thing happens with OLO and OLOOLO (page 286).
@@gregcarter8656 the word Hana doesn't have a double vowel so my original point is still valid.
@@despaahana ʻAʻole. He hewa kāu i kākau ai e pili ana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke kahakō.
Look at the words "hana" (work), and "Hāna" (a place on Maui). Both words have only one stress, and yet their pronunciations are DIFFERENT from each other. Also, in your original post, you said that stress is on "me" in "Kamehameha". That's pololei, but there is NO KAHAKŌ on "me". In addition, you wrongly said that "the vowels make the same sound every time". Itʻs well documented that Hawaiian "ʻa" is often OPTIONALLY raised to "o" when the "a" is right before a "u". For example, look at "Ke-au-hou" in the book Place Names of Hawaii. The authors noted that itʻs usually pronounced "Ke-ou-hou" because of "au" being pronounced "ou". In fact, many words in Hawaiian exhibit variant pronunciations with A or O. Another example is "kolohe" and "kalohe", meaning "rascal". You will find both forms in the Hawaiian Dictionary by Pukui and Elbert. There are many other examples. Hawaiian also has some variation of the vowels I and U, as seen in the word forms "imu" and "umu", meaning "earth oven".
What do you even mean by your "original point"? Stresses? Kahakōs? ʻOkinas between identical vowels?
What you wrote was wrong about all of those.
Awesome!!!!
Let me know if you ever need help with Tahitian royal history or one on all the monarchs of the Society Islands (present day French Polynesia)
The dynasties or Pomare, Tamatoa and Teururai from Tahiti, Raiatea, Bora Bora and Huahine
Thank you
Super interesting video :)
Very cool.
an adventurer by the name of James Harden-Hickey was part of a plot to become Hawaii's monarch but never attained the office of king
You mentioned that there were no descendants of the House of Kamehameha, but Keoni Ana had siblings, didn't he? Were they considered ineligible due to being part-British, or did those lines all go extinct too?
You should do the family tree of the Nubian monarchs or the 25th dynasty of Egypt
Hope you do a video on the Mexican monarchy or the Aztec monarchy it who be nice to see if there are any claimants to the Aztec throne.
Juan Ferreira I would like to see the monarchy of the Aztec Mayan and the Incas of Peru
This is like Egypt and other places. You can see the lightening of the family line as the Europeans enter. I find it funny that the people call themselves original inhabitants of the islands. King Kamehameha (1758) was a 7 foot tall great warrior who united the islands. Later, the trip to California was because Kalakua's health was had begun to fail. He started getting dreadfully sick after he was forced to sign a constitution at gunpoint by the European group of secret society men. and give up his monarchy. Keep in mind, this is after the Europeans brought small pox to Hawaii for at least the second time. They had succeeded in killing nearly all of the original Hawaiians and decided to import workers from Japan. That is when they brought in small pox. The Europeans formed a secret society to overthrow the monarchy, formed by Lauren Thurston. They were successful. By the way the missionaries had already seriously infiltrated the family line by taking the last kings sister. She married a European man who treated her terribly. The stealing of Hawaii is a horribly sad story, very much like the stealing of Australia, and Africa and so many other places.
You should do a research on the Maui Royal Family from the small Island called Manu’a in American Samoa currently they’re are members of the Royal Family in the Island and one of the Royal members was a Governor of American Samoa his name is Lolo Matalasi Moliga. I read a story about the Maui Royal Family from that small island in Manu’a it’s pretty cool that there are still member of the Royal Family out there.
Could you do the Sicilian monarch family tree?
Love the Hawaiian Royal Family!
A Hawaiian King was once visited by a Malay Sultan from the state of Johore. Do you have the ancestral information of the Malay Sultans. There are not many records found on the origins of the Malays in Malaysia or Indonesia. But ironically these records of Malay Manuscripts were found in Russia. I find your work extremely interesting.Thanks
There is another living claimant - Abigail Kinoiki Kekaulike Kawananakoa (b.1926). She
is also a grandchild of David Kawananakoa and Abigail Campbell. In 1932 she was legally adopted by her grandmother Abigail for the purpose of ensuring succession to any future restoration of the Hawaiian throne passed to and through her. At the moment most Hawaiian monarchists regard Abigail Kinoiki Kekaulike Kawananakoa as the legitimate heir to the throne.
She had just passed away, in December 2022. In an interview with the press, a leader in one of the royal societies said there are currently other living members of House Kawānanakoa, as well as other aliʻi in other houses.

Those explorations had to be paid for. Land is a such an asset.
Hi. This is actually in my bloodline and genealogy. Holts of Hawaii and John Owen Dominis. I have old photos and a family tree dating back to Hawaiians. My Kākau is centered around my ancestors
