In Case you don't know, these are some of the reasons that there's a large (Hawaiian) Language gap between Native speakers, mānaleo and their offspring, keiki and moʻopuna.
I asked my friend Kaipoʻi to help me make this video. A portion of online sales of my music goes to supporting Hawaiian Language.

I'm not even Hawaiian, but I find Hawaiian language so beautiful
I really appreciate you knowing that the Hawaiian language is quite beautiful. Mahalo nui loa Aloha 😻🥰
Back then they didn’t think so.., I’m glad you think it’s beautiful because yes it is !! And our language has no cuss words or insults it’s pure clean and innocent.
My mother grew up in Lanai and she was shamed into speaking only english, she being full bloodied Hawaiian spoke Hawaiian at home. She was ridiculed and punished for speaking Hawaiian in school. So she stopped speaking (Olelo)
Hawaiian. Now we have Hawaiian Language schools that teach the children their culture including speaking in Hawaiian. My son teaches Hawaiian @ the schools.
My grandmother was also forced into being adopted for several years as her mother could ONLY speak 'Olelo Hawai'i. That is precious time lost between a mother and child. Due to racism, greed and power hungry traitors from afar.
Lol I've never met an older or any Hawaiian for that fact that spoke Hawaiian. Now Somans, Tongas and Fijians most definitely cause we would never let the white man take away our language.
I am so sorry to hear that. I wish I knew how to speak it but your son teaching it? How cool!!!
Ida Perez ur son is a blessing
dcss Not many full Hawaiians outside of Niihau people these days.
Fellow Native American here, and I’ll always look at Hawaii as its own country, it’s too beautiful to be apart of the shitty ass US. To our Native Hawaiian brothers and sisters, please continue to keep on putting forward effort in preserving what’s left of your culture. As Native Americans, we can completely relate to you guys, unfortunately, and all we wish is the best for Native Hawaiians. Peace and love to all Native Hawaiians, you guys are our cousins across the sea, Mahalo🤙🏽💪🏽🙌🏽✌🏽
Brah we polynesians share a similar history with our brothers and sisters of the indigenous tribes of the states you folks were murdered and displaced by the white man and then treated like second class citizens when you were their first bless you we polynesians understand and wish you well aloha ia oukou.
Polynesians are not Native Americans. They are more closely related to Filipinos and the Malagasy people of Madagascar.
@@ProximaCentauri88 most southeast Asians are a or b blood most polynesians are o positive we look more like central or south American natives than Filipinos Kamehameha the great was 6'9-7'0 in height we worshiped kane ku lono and kanaloa as did all polynesians malaysian did not all polynesians can virtually understand each other Filipinos cannot even understand each other.

I heard two high school girls on theBus the other day speaking in Hawaiian. Maybe they were once Hawaiian immersion students. It was great. Hawaiian culture is still very alive.
Same as okinawan. Japanese government banned okinawan language at school and when my dad accidentally spoke okinawan, he had to walk around the school with a sign hanging from his neck. I love my culture and proud okinawan. Love to hear history behind the hawaiian language
Island girl530 yeah I went to Okinawa back 2012 and the Okinawan tour guide said many young generations are forgetting their Okinawan language
沖縄大好きです。私の沖縄出身の友達も言っていたけど、自分のおばあさんが言っている言葉が中々理解できませんって。とても悲しいことですね。/スウェーデン人の私より。

Well would you prefer to be forced to speak English...? Believe it or not, the "globalist" propaganda saying that English in necessary for a bright future is just another form of imperialism happening right now. A much more long-term, and sinister form of it actually. Your descendants won't know Japanese, much less Okinawan if Asians keep worshiping the West.
Erik Nomura the fact that English is a requirement for all students really irritates me... I mean I don’t get why Japanese students are forced to learn English in school and even for college entrance exam... If it was an elective that’s totally fair, but the only choice is English in Japan. This so called “globalism” is just bullshit
Same happened in Scotland with my native language, made illegal by those we stand so closely behind, same story,
Wonderful! And outside of your home, how useful is that language and who can you connect to it with?
You sound like a crybaby victim.
🤮
Stephen Dise you just dug your own grave 👏
Stephen Dise aww poor thing you must be one of those individuals that hate on others that are bilingual because of your inability to acquire/learn another language 🤣
@@stephendise7946 why bro ? Why?
Michael Kennedy: Yes, we forget that white people also had to face these repressive laws. Irish, Welsh, Scots. (The Bonny Bunch of Roses) All beautiful languages, but represented a freedom they didn't want those people to claim. The Scots have some of the most gorgeous ballads and they are being sung world wide.
Growing up in the continental US, it's amazing how much misinformation and omission was common in our collective upbringing. Not just with Hawaii, but with so much of US and British history.. That's not to say the US and Britain were the only hostile takeover masters, but clearly the most "successful" in recent history. Heart hurts for all the losses in language, culture, life, and love - but i appreciate the information, and have much respect for those aiming to reinvigorate and revive what was diminished.
My heart goes out to my hawaiian brothers and sisters
I recently moved to Kahului Maui after buying my house, was hoping on making new friends if you don't mind ?
I heartily agree with the second speaker's point that learning another language opens up a different way of thinking, of seeing the world. We all should try to understand one another, not dominate them!
One hell of a proverb, my friend.
LOL I think the second speaker is the same person. LOL
Great video. There is a zapotec poem (zapotecs are native people from south Mexico), it concerns with the survailance of our ancient languages:
Quizuuyu naa gate´
ziuu ti zhubá

You will not see me dead
there will be a seed hidden in the bushes in the pathways

Y también de lenguas como Náhuatl y caray ay lenguajes que tienen apenas 15 hablantes :(
We got the same treatment, feel for you. Tha ar Gàidhlig beo gu brath cuideachd. 'Us 's ann nan cridheachan a bhios rithe còmhnaidh a-niste. (Our Gaelic also lives forever. And it's in our hearts that she'll stay.)
lol... ignore our village idiot, he's just kidding.
@@cl4ptp722 No need to be sarcastic. The comments are harsh, but they're not false. European colonists destroyed so many cultures thanks to their lust for superiority. Some of us at least recognize that this doesn't mean others (like the Japanese, the Han Chinese, the Mongols or the Aztecs) didn't do the same. But it's OK for minorities to be upset at the oppressors of their people. The Irish are no exception.
An Awkward Sweet Potato in Hawaii’s case, it’s all foreigners that kind of destroyed us Hawaiians. Not just “whitey”
But they are capable of fighting back. Talking about and publicising the fact their land was stolen and culture destroyed is one of the ways to do that.
@@anawkwardsweetpotato4728 - Of course, remember one's history and those who oppressed your people, but be VERY careful in how you speak about it. Don't obsess over "Whites" or "Europeans" when the totality of "Europe" wasn't at play in these matters, were they? It's like referring to the warring and enslaving tribes of North America and Africa as ALL of those whose skin is red or black. And don't overlook the evils of certain indigenous peoples of America upon other indigenous peoples. The "white oppressors" myopia is ridiculously hypocritical. Accuracy and Context for 100, Alex. P.S. - Every human is guilty of their own blindpsots. It would be better to learn about history from a variety of voices, the victors, the vanquished, as well as the Truth-Tellers from the respective tribes on both sides of the Story. Rare indeed that voices from within one's tribe spill the beans on the evils within.
By the 1800s 300,000 of the Hawaiian population spoke Hawaiian as their own language... as of now it's only 18,000 who speak Hawaiian. It hurts my heart to think about what the Americans did to Hawaii.
It is a very tragic
history.
A monumental Human Tragedy.
The Hawaiians very nearly died away.
A *near* *genocide*
From a now recent scholarly estimate of 800,000 to a million Hawaiians peopling the Islands in Pre-Contact Oral Tradition history *still* in complete total being *during* the lifetime of Tame'ame'a the 1st King, to only an estimated 13,500 survivors at one point after the Great Mehele.
Aside from the writings of the Kings and the press (publications in Hawaiian) they kept going (II, III, and the Queen), the *People* and the *spoken* language nearly *vanished*
They suffered catastrophic loss of Life and Culture.
The Hawaiian language actually suffered a multi-generational collapse.
It has only been by reclamation efforts that the 'Olelo movement transpired.
Hawaiian is such a beautiful language! 😍
Keep fighting the good fight, guys.
I learned Hawaiian numbers a few years ago from a UA-cam video by a lovely, motherly lady.
If it wasn't for people like you and her, the world wouldn't know to appreciate your language and culture.
For me, I've always been taught that Olelo Hawai'i and Bahasa Melayu were related, but discovering similarities myself brought a whole new appreciation for the language.
- Lots of love and support from Malaysia
"when you lose the language, you lose the Hawaiian thought process" I've always said this. Language is more than how to say words in new ways. Language is insight into a culture. Take the simple word Aloha. it doesn't literally mean hello and goodbye. it means love. it's just used as a greeting, something you spread to every person every day. Take a linguistically similar but psychologically very different culture, such as the Maori, who were very aggressive and war-like. You have the word for love: aroha; which is very similar, but is not used as a greeting as in Hawaiian. You have more than just a translation here. You have insight into the way the two cultures think very differently.
His information is 100% correct!!! He explained it to perfection. I myself studied Hawaiian culture, the language, arts, the history! Its shameful what is happening. A lot of times its very very very difficult to find material to learn the Hawaiian language. Thank you sharing and speaking!

My mother is Tahitian and the French government implemented the same tabu of Tahitian language in their schools. Thankfully, my grandparents knew better than to listen to what the popaa (white people) told them about French being the better language to learn. My mom, aunties, and uncles all speak fluent Tahitian--my mom's is among the most beautiful spoken. I'm grateful that she passed this linguistic seed onto me too, and I intend to teach it to my children. Te reo maohi will live on.
Look at what happened in France with all the spoken languages that were not French, they are about to desappear. Please people, never allow it to happen in Tahiti.
Inanna
Inanna I’m from Louisiana in the USA and French used to be the spoken language here and once the US acquired Louisiana from France, they made everyone stop using the French language in favor of English. French in Louisiana has suffered the same fate as the Hawaiian or Tahitian language you mention. It’s all about who ever the newcomer is coming in that has the power. They did it to us and we were white like they were. Race doesn’t matter, it’s one’s culture that does. Language is tied to culture. Our culture was different to theirs and they then had the power so they changed it by banning the language of Louisiana.
This is the beautiful thing about language, culture, and tradition. It has value in your identity and is something that is passed on through generations. It’s authentic.
Te reo maohi
Tahitian Language is very important to ongoing still evolving reclamation spoken 'Olelo Hawaiian.
Tahitian Language must not be lost.
Become strong in it.
So that complex thoughts feelings and expression can be expertly used regularly.
Hawai'i looks to Tahiti as Wellspring of Tradition.
One thing that was not mentioned is that there were immigrants from China, Japan, Philippines, Puerto Rico, and Portugal who were brought over to work in the sugar cane fields. They did not speak Hawaiian. They spoke their own languages and eventually pidgin English was developed so that they could communicate with each other.
Crystal Evans Inccorect. Many Chinese spoke hawaiian. They adapted quick, because they were here years before any other immigrant group and had to live harmonius with Kanaka.
Random fact. Hawai'ian belongs to Oceanian LangFam which belongs to Austronesian LangFam. Which means. Tagalog, Malagsy, Maori, Malay, and Hawai'ian are sister languages.
Crystal Evans yes your are correct, the largest ethnic group in Hawaii is the Asians and in that groups it is the Filipino.
Crystal Evans also Koreans and Indians
What is spoken more ? Hawaiin Creole or Hawaiian
Awesome video - ngā mihi mahana mai i Aotearoa!
Punanaleo immersion schools of hawaii is fashioned after the kohangareo ko Aotearoa educators of hawaii went to nz to study the maori immersion programs to see if it could help Hawaiians restore the desire to learn their olelo now close to 20,000 kanaka maoli are fluent kapaikapai kia kotou aroha teatua kakite
Mahalo for sharing this video!!!
I Finu' Chamoru (the Chamorro Language) went through the same thing when America acquired both Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands after World War II.
yall chose to remain part of the United States though. That's what you wanted. Meanwhile, the Philippines chose to become independent, and now they still have all of their native languages intact.
Same thing in Tahiti... (now) teenagers didn't not using anymore "te re'o maohi" :(
Thanks for this video. I will spread your message to many.
Beautifully addressed and to the point brother!
The English also didn't allow Gaelic language in Scotland when they got invaded thats why its hardly spoken anymore smh
SO Many wrongs were done in the past. Let's support those changes to be UNDONE, and bring back the languages of all the peoples. IMUA
Irish, Welsh, Scottish, Eskimo aluet languages, Maori, Australian languages, just to name ones oppressed by English, there's even more opressed by Spanish and French, Mandarin, and Portuguese
0:15 ..There's a similarity with the Fijian language here. Grandparent - Kupuna in Hawaiian - Tubuna in Fijian
Grandchildren - Mo'opuna in Hawaiian - Makubuna in Fijian.
they share a common ancestor (proto polynesian)
and as scholars themselves not to understand the positive benefits of being bilingual is just ludicrous, it's beyond me. every time I asked my tutu to teach me Hawaiian she would say "I no like you be stupid like me." when she grew up amd went to school, that is the literal idea that they instilled in her mind
I know some Olelo Hawaii and no joke, every time I speak it, I feel this deep sense of pride in me, it came to a point where I am inspiring my parents to learn hawaiian.
Maikai nui! Mahalo for sharing your mana'o and kuleana!
Awesome video, language is so important!
Thank you for watching.
i hope theres a site that teach hawaiian language i'm not hawaiian i'm mexican american that will be cool if i learn hawaiian language look so interesting :)
Sad but this the history of the world. Thankfully there are people like this man to be advocates and teachers. In my opinion there was more at play in Hawaii than the repressive laws as there are many cultures that were subjected to similar laws and managed to maintain their traditions and language. I feel the mass migration and subsequent intermarriage on the islands had a lot to do with it also. I don't think any other isolated community was subjected to such a vast influx of so many different cultures as quickly as Hawaii was. The result being there are not a lot of "pure" Hawaiians left. Hawaii is a beautiful melting pot of many cultures. It's just ironic and sad that this melting pot contributed to the dilution of scarcity of the Hawaiian language in my opinion. I wish this man the best of success in his noble endeavor.
In Indonesia we are also forced to use Indonesian in schools because we have too many languages, but as a result there are many local languages that are dying or already died
I find this disturbing.
The Languages must be preserved.
All Groups (each and every Local language Group) must remain Bi-Lingual for educational and Cultural Heritage significance.
This is actually of great importance to The Indonesian Nation.

For some reason a passion has birthed in me to encourage the traditions of Kauai'i. Aloha

The Hawaiian Kingdom Government was overthrown not the country. The Kingdom still lives!
i think the people who dislike the video cant relate/understand whats going on and are not even hawaiian
Whenever you see colonization or imperialism, you'll see language suppression and the horrifying trauma that comes with it. Every continent has scars of this process, and we need honest discussions about what is truly at risk.
I've heard a number of language preservation activists site the relative success of 'Olelo Hawai'i as a reference point and inspiration. Obviously, 'Olelo Hawai'i is still endangered, but there is hope for the language, and it gives hope to other efforts, especially in Alaska and the continental US.
Mahalo for creating content like this.
So Awesome. Mahalo!!!

While working with native elders on programs to preserve traditional language on the West Coast of Canada, I travelled to Louisville Kentucky to attend a conference on native language renewal. While there I met a group of Hawaiian high school students who were there to present a program about their culture. What impressed me most was that every time I met them in the hotel they were speaking in Hawaiian. For the language to have come so far that teenagers used it with their friends was amazing, wonderful and reassuring. Thank goodness for the Maori language nest program that inspired and guided the rebirth of Hawaiian. A shining example for the world.
I think Hawaiian is a beautiful language and your way of thinking. It's very sad when a country is forbidden to speak their own language. I'm glad things have changed now. It must have been like losing a big part of yourself. Thank you for sharing this video. I hope to be able to learn a bit Hawaiian
as someone who is learning a second language and dabbling in the third I completely understand what this guy is talking about. In learning Spanish in Japanese I have begun understanding that language is just a tool to convert thoughts into a transmittable form. Therefore different languages can do them differently
Excellent mana'o shared on the history of our beautiful 'ōlelo makuahine. E ola may ka 'ōlelo Hawai'i
I know where my disconnect is. My mother moved us from Hawaii to Maryland because she wanted a better life for her children. We moved into our grandparents home and our grandmother hated that we were part Hawaiian. With only our mother as our contact point, we have lost being able to speak our language. I am grateful that I found a local Hula class that I am getting back to my roots.
Mahalo for sharing. The connecting was/is always there. Congratulations on finding the Aloha in hula.
Samoan will never disappear.. there’s to much Fobs🙄But dont worry.. the Hawaiian language is in the land.. in the plants.. the winds.. it lives on in the world around us.. a treasure cannot be lost.. but can be hidden.. you just have to uncover it !
Maleni Mutuga uce said too many fobs😂
Maleni Mutuga It still lives on as a daily spoken language on the Hawaiian island of Niihau
*Mahalo*
T Love we’ll all Poly’s are rooted into their culture.. if there was No ban, there was no reason NOT to speak it yk ?
My Dad served in the military and I remember when we were stationed in Hawaii (by the way I consider Hawaii HOME) and as a small child, I never understood why the Native children hated me so much. I understand now that that hatred from Pearl Harbor as well as the hatred from previous generations seeped into the relations between "haoles" and the Native population. I understand now why people get upset and why people are hurt by their culture being erased (being mixed with Native (American) and Hispanic I get it for sure).
BY THE WAY: I don't think it should erase the history or the relations that are strained between the mainland and Hawaii...HOWEVER there are ways to bridge that Aloha and I still plan on moving back because I feel that Hawaii is home. I still speak Pidgin with my friends who are either back home or who have left. After you live in Hawaii and are immersed in the everyday life, however, it's one of a kind.
Bro I am sorry you experienced that please don't think all Hawaiians are like that in my book you are very welcome some of my people are plain ignorant again aloha ia oe.
Makaukau ‘oe, mahalo🌺
mahalo for explaining..with love and aloha
This is very similar to what happened in New Zealand. A beautiful video!
This was the way of the occupier. The Hawaiians that didn't become victims of introduced disease or weren't killed were forbidden to continue their cultural ways. Just like the Native Americans and Alaskan natives, they weren't allowed to speak Hawaiian or to chant or to dance hula. Christian values were forced on them and are very present to this day. Even in the
Punana Leo charter schools, you find those heavy Christian values. Wherever the U.S. or England, Netherlands, Portugal,Spain found indigenous people, they did the same thing. But all over the world people are reclaiming their language, their songs and dances, the horse cultures are rebounding, the basket makers are thriving. The people have learned to speak their languages and have incorporated the best of both worlds. We have to ge rid of the 15th century "Doctrine of Discovery" which is used in law to this day. Oakland CA 2021. On Ohlone land.
in all nz schools they learn moari. and in Australia they are just starting to teach native languages.
really?
XXRolando2008 yea , I'm from nz we have Maori culture in our curriculum . I'm tongan and it's good because we learn about our brother and sister cultures
Interesting.
Exactly, i am maori and speak fluently, but still, they could do more to teach our language. I would rather we built seperate schools for kids (of all cultures) who actually want to learn our language, rather than force it on every student in the country.
Nah that’s a lie about Australia we don’t learn any indigenous language
...cool. Thank you. Mahalo
Yes My Grandmother : MALIA PAIA AHUNA Told me She Was Beaten with Wooden Rulers in the Knuckles because She Only Spoke Hawaiian at Hauula Elementary School.... She Got Tired If Getting Hurt So She QUIT SCHOOL 😪 Genocide of a Another Native Peoples

A question about annexation asked of Councilwomen Jennifer Ruggles.
This is her response.
"I'm glad you brought up annexation and can't help but respond. In order for a country to be annexed it must "Cede" it's sovereignty to the receiving country. Cession only happens through a "Treaty of Peace." A country "cedes" its sovereignty through a "treaty of peace" and it becomes therefore "annexed" by the receiving country.
There actually is no treaty ceding the Hawaiian Kingdom's sovereignty to the U.S. In 1898, Congress passed a "resolution" "annexing the Hawaiian Islands." First of all as a legislator, there is one glaring problem here: I cannot pass laws for other counties, (like a styrofoam ban for Maui), just as much as America cannot pass laws for Canada. Legislation of a territory doesn't have effect beyond its own borders. During the resolution's debate 2 congressman said the following:
“The annexation of Hawaii by joint resolution is unconstitutional, unnecessary, and unwise...that territory could only be constitutionally acquired by treaty.” - Representative Thomas Ball (Texas)
“the annexation of foreign territory was necessary and essentially the subject-matter of a treaty, and that it could not be accomplished legally and constitutionally by a statute or joint resolution.” - Senator Augustus Bacon (Georgia)
In 1988, even Douglas Kmiec, U.S. Department of Justice opined, “It is unclear which constitutional power Congress exercised when it acquired Hawaii by joint resolution.”
What I am saying here is there's no legal evidence Hawaiian Kingdom was ever actually "annexed" into the U.S. Annexation only happens via cession through Treaty of Peace.
The only Treaty of Peace between the Hawaiian Kingdom and the U.S. is the one that Queen Lili'uokalani and President Cleveland signed on December 18th in 1893 in which the Queen would grant amnesty to the invaders, (not kill them), while the U.S. would restore the Hawaiian Kingdom government. The U.S. has yet to fulfill it's condition of the treaty."

To learn of current events that apply to everyone especially those who live in Hawai'i.
This is so sad. Illegal, oppressive and inhumane. Power in the wrong hands can do such evil and the effects are lasting. To think that a language and a culture was lost by force and oppression breaks my heart. I wish for there to be a revival for future generations and this lost language to be found and celebrated again

Aloha, níl 'Ōlelo Hawai'i difriúil leis an Ghaeilge. The story of the Hawaiian language is not too not different from the story of the Irish language. In Irish we have a phrase, 'Tiocfiadh ár lá' - Our day will come.
May Akua bless you mightily my Hawaiian brother. Wake the mo'opuna up. I believe the Holy Spirit is guiding you. Mahalo ke Akua. Jeshua Ha Machiach is The WAY, The TRUTH and the LIFE. You speak Truth. Only goof fruit will grow from good soil. You are grounded and blessed, and blessing the children who know not who they are. Like Karen Keawehawaii said so appropriately.... ' In the sand not the can, in the valley not the alley." Wake um up, shake um up. Hauole literally means: With out breath. With kindness & Love, the true Aloha Spirit, let us move forward as the great Navigatos & Warriors that we are. Malama.
As I was raised, being Hawaiian, I heard a few words and phrases so my dialect is naturally a mix of Hawaiian English but I wish I could speak fully Hawaiian. Is hard now to learn, especially since sometimes some words is different between islands, you can only learn from your kupuna. The internet is not always reliable and so little know how to speak fluent. If we never have Kamehameha Schools, I think we really would be lost.
Indigenous understanding is at every Hawaiki, not only that one.
I love the sound of `Ōlelo Hawai`i! 😊
Aloha Ke Akua, Malama Pono
Mahalo nui nō kēia wīkio. But Hawaiian langauge was outlawed in 1896, not 1898. Act 57 of the 1896 Laws of the Republic of Hawaiʻi was the law that banned Hawaiian medium education. Mahalo hou no kēia a e ola mau ka ʻōlelo makuahine !
I recently moved to Kahului Maui after buying my house, was hoping on making new friends if you don't mind ?

We have the same struggles. Kia Ora from Aotearoa
Are there books today printed in Hawaiian language?
Yes a lot.
Aotearoa hia whanau, exactly why my mum neva taught us ma uri, same shit different day/place, PLUS...they tell us o get over it, let it go, move FORWARD, then continue the re-enslavement on the people, using more subtle techniques, (some obvious) to convince us, TO BE TRULY HAPPY, SAFE, AND SECURE, WE NEED TO BE CONTROLLED, I shit u not
Been saying that for decades... "Mate Te Mou Korero O Havaiki-Raro"
Go to Ni'ihau/Niao and listen to da real Olelo/Korero
Kinda similar to Tagalog language
I am native from new zealand and our language is very similar to hawaiian language.
i ka olelo no ke ola, i ka olelo no make
ite korero no oranga, ite korero no hemonga atu.
@BrownyDownySydrome *Were* obviously the Europeans invaded and split all of polynesia. That's like saying a Scottish is the same as a Welsh man. Yes they were the same people, but they have split. Now, if you want to reconnect our peoples, I'm down.
@BrownyDownySydrome Where are you from btw? I'm maori too if you are lol. And I don't think we should have independence tbh, I think polynesia needs to become one nation. That way we can help each other out. A union of some kind.
In the past all past all Polynesian people's called themselves hawaiki. It makes sense, all Polynesian people even traded with each other and such. Yes, definitely we were the same people.
@BrownyDownySydrome To be honest I've thought really deep about this and actually wanted to make this happen at long time ago but gave up on the idea haha. Mainly because people thought I was just crazy.
I study alot into Maori history. And believe the cook islands was hawaiki. I find it hard to believe that every Polynesian island had a native name except for cookislands. I aalso have hypothesis about that but not sure if you wanna even listen to that.
Long story short, I think it's new Zealand's job as the mainland to unite polynesia. I mean Europe has a European Union, England had a Commonwealth, why can't Polynesia have a union. But that's another topic for politics haha.
It's actually easy to colonize Polynesia if you have the resources. Do what China did to Taiwan and Singapore, just build more bussiness all over Polynesia. Then the influence kicks in, economy comes back, profit, then build more.
Not sure if you find this interesting by now or if you think I'm a nut haha.
Build māori bussinesses across polynesia.*
Oh yes. I've studied that too and know exactly what you are going on about. I actually have a hypothesis which is kind-of hard to explain on here but i'll try. This is my first time talking about it to haha.
It didn't become clear to me until i studied the Māori language. People who say its not versatile are completely wrong. You know how important whakapapa and ancestors are in Māori. If you look at Māori place names, it makes sense we named them to link back our whakapapa.
From my theory, In the beginning, the very first Māori (Or South Americans) would have migrated off mainland South America and settled in Easter Island. Easter Islands native name as you know is Rapanui, which means the land of the long paddle, or great journey in Māori. It makes sense this was the starting point (not Hawaii). This is *only* Māori history not Polynesian. You'll see the difference soon.
Māori then migrated from Rapanui into cook islands (Hawaiki) and mixed with the inhabitants there, (already settled Taiwanese aboriginals). This is where the Taiwanese genes come into our gene pool. THIS is the beginning of *Polynesian* history NOT māori history. Maori history is a parallel timeline.
The Taiwanese, south american mixed people would have left cook islands into Tonga (which means land from the south in Māori). This also fits in with my hypothesis because Tonga is indeed south of cook islands.
They would have then migrated into Chatham islands. The native name for Chatham islands is (Rēhoku) which is Moriori for land of the misty sun, or smokey sun. Then they finally would have inhabited the mainland New Zealand. Native name is obviously Aotearoa which you know, means land of the long white cloud.
We can trace back our whakapapa because of the names. They link the journey. We can NOT say this is coincidence.
The Taiwanese people have an alternative history. They actually migrated from Taiwan into Japan, Polynesia, and South East Asia. We know this is true because the Japanese have actual records of old Japanese people who lived in Japan during the "Jomon" period. They were aboriginal settlers. This is what the Taiwanese would have looked like back then.
So Māori are actually a mix of BOTH Taiwanese and south american. It just depends which one you believe is stronger. I believe its both histories which make us who were today. The native name for Japan is (Nihon) which means land of the rising sun. It's been kept throughout history for so long, makes sense that we may have colonized Japan even.
The only reason Japanese people do not look polynesian anymore is because Asians from the Korean pennisular mixed their genes with the already native people of Japan. Ainu, Ryukyuan etc. This is known as the Yayoi period if you wanna research it more.
More proof of my hypothesis is:
•1. Southern Polynesians already have a more Asian appearance than northern Polynesian (Hense less south american genetics, seen in Samoans). So alternative history checks out.
•2. All the countries in my South American theory call themselves Māori, or Maohi today, Tonga, cook-islands, Tahiti etc. All these located in north Polynesia.
•3. Scientist have proven Māori brought kumara to New Zealand through farming. Only place it could have come from genetically is south america.
So to sum it all up. I believe, the Taiwanese would have migrated out of Taiwan into South East Asia, Japan, And southern Polynesia. And South Americans would have migrated from Rapanui into northern Polynesia. And overtime, mixed together, making modern Māori.

It is all the influence and colonizations of bigger and powerful countries before, I’m a Filipino living in USA and our country is lacking of knowledge in our native language because of the influence of English. Very few people will speak Tagalog fluently pwithout borrowed english and spanish words.
From what I heard, the Tagalog people still speak pure Tagalog. It is the people from Manila who speak the abomination that is Taglish.
Taglish is spoken everywhere not only in Manila, it is the education system of our country that scars our native tongue believing English is a very superior language.
PatPineda Volleyball
Look up Austronesia, pare. I hope all Austronesian countries unite and become one whole country. And yes, you’re right. I want pure Tagalog to be reinstated as the National Language.
If the Austronesian brothers agree to be one country, I would suggest Malay to be the National language. Austronesia will be a powerhouse if that happened. I wish I hve maintain Filipino language, I lost so much because I left the PH when I was very young.
PatPineda Volleyball
Yeah. I’d make sure that every dialect/language of Austronesia is properly documented. Everything about culture should be documented. And I agree, Malay should be the language of Austronesia.
Proud Austronesian!
Plus, I’d add Melanesia to Austronesia ‘cause Melanesians are our island brothers as well.
God Bless The Hawaiians !
I didn't knew you could legally overthrow a country.
thats hella sad cuz the Hawaiian language is beautiful😕 I don't want it to be a *lost language that nobody could speak in the next generation*
Im grateful that my great father spoke Hawaiian to his kids and grandkids , and how my aunties teach Hawaiian to my cousins .
Unfortunately my mom never cared so I had to teach myself living in the mainland .
I don't care , I'm teaching future my Haole children Hawaiian lol
"Your native language doesn't matter, speak English, and go to church... Like a good civilized human being."
I’m 15 percent Hawaiian and whiter than a cloud
Lol
You are honest. That is rare.
I hope the kids in Hawaii learn how to speak it in school. I learned it with google translate. It can't be that hard
They might as well learn Korean as you.
Hopefully flex seal will save the Hawaiian culture
Ok well first Hawaiian is a hard language to learn. And second you should never use google translate. It sometimes gives you wrong answers
You prolly speak shitty Hawaiian then
i always see this uncle at otrs that's crazy I going pick his brain little bit the next time I run into him haha ALOHA
What is this I've heard about the creation of a Hawaiian script called kakuna?
Bula and Aloha my Hawaiian brother
they still spoke hawaiian at home
Aloha Mahalo
I AM Part Native Hawaiian And Part Filipino=Ilicano....I AM Little Of Irish And Little Polish...
Mahalo to you guys the Hawaiian people who lived in the Hawaiian islands, many of the things mentioned in the video it’s true but don’t forget about those Hawaiians who helped in the beginning they were told by the white men that they will get everything that they ask for but the white man lied to them by the time they found out about the truth it was too late because a lot of the territories was sign over to those white men ruler of the Hawaiian islands at that time she had no other way but to make a deal will be beneficial for the Hawaiian people Hawaiian people should be thankful for the Queen. What she done
Can someone translate this please? Thank you.

I've seen people who claimed to be Hawaiian but don't even speak or understand Hawaiian. You ain't what you claim you are if you don't speak,understand, and know what every whatever you are is suppose to know, simple as that. O a'u o le Sãmoa mão'i, koakele kele kagaka Sãmoa i Hawaii e le loa se paupa'u fakakau le agagu'u fa'asamoa. Gao le kã lakou pe'a i luga lakou kigo ae oki uma i isi mea
What I’m about to say has no relation to the video or to your comment whatsoever, but;
A’u is me in Samoan. Aku is me in Indonesian. Ako is me in Filipino.
In Samoan, you guys count from 1-5 in Tasi, Lua, Tolu, Fa, Lima, in Filipino, it’s Isa, Dalawa, Tatlo, Apat, Lima, in Indonesian, it’s Satu, Dua, Tiga, Empat, Lima.
Head in Filipino is Ulo, in Samoan, it’s Ulu.
Ear in Filipino is Ta’inga or Tenga, in Samoan, it’s Talinga.
Kuto is head lice in Filipino, while it’s Kotu in Maori and possibly Samoan.
Chicken in Filipino is Manok, in Samoan, it’s Manu.
Fish in Filipino is Isda’ (the apostrophes there is supposed to represent the glottal stop). In Samoan, it’s I’a, in Indonesian, it’s Ikan, in Maori, it’s Ika.
Heaven or Sky in Filipino is Langit (also Langit in Indonesian), in Samoan it’s Langi, in Maori it’s Rangi, in Hawaiian it’s Lani.
Coconut in Filipino is Niyog, in Hawaiian it’s Niu (Niyu).
He/she (General term) is Siya in Filipino, Diya in Indonesia, and Ia (Iya in Hawaiian and Samoan).
@@yusadani755 I get your points but have a few things wrong...The word ear in Samoan is "Taliga" there's no N the G is how the Tongans do it. The Samoan word for Chicken is "Moa" not Manu. You consistently use "ng" in the Samoan words that you use like the word for Heaven and Sky is "Lagi". There's is NEVER a N next to the G in Samoan words. The Samoan word for Coconut is also Niu but is only used for the Unripped coconuts and the brown ones are called Popo. Just a few corrections thats all
Torch Live Torch Live
Right. Yep, I have a habit of adding the N before the G when talking about Samoan. It’s just that NG is constantly used throughout all Austronesian languages, including Maori and Tongan.
For instance, what you said would be spelt like this in Filipino/Indonesian;
O a’u o le Sāmowa se pawpa’u fakakaw le angangu’u fa’asamowa. Ngaw le kā lakow pe’a i lunga lakow kingo ay oki uma i isi meya.
I can’t speak any Poly language, but I can pronounce words like a native. As a habit of mine, I usually alter words in Maori/Samoan/Hawaiian to fit the way things are spelled in Nusantara (maritime Southeast Asia).
It may sound stupid, but I have this ambition of uniting all of Austronesian under a Federation or Union. An economic/linguistic/cultural union. All countries can retain their sovereignty but we can all become one Federation, under one government where each sovereign Austronesian country has representatives to.
Look up Austronesia. :)
Missed out some parts of what you said in Samoan but you get the point.
@@yusadani755 Damn!!! That's some ambition you got there lol. Seems like a cool dream but speaking from experience with all Poly's and other pacific islanders I feel like thats gonna be very impossible do to the fact that each respective country has lived their own life the way there are now for a long amount of time. But just a quick question, What are you? Race i mean

I’m your Austronesian bradda from the Philippines :)
Most of my family is from Hawai'i. And i am not that old im thirteen. I always blamed myself for not learning the language of my home. Now i understand that it is not my fault and that its these peoples fault for over throwing Hawai'i kingdom and banning our language. Dang. I wonder what it would feel like to live in that kind of monarchy.
Yo I’m Hawaiian that’s fucked up I feel bad for you all
This whole thing reminds me of Ireland, the way the English destroyed our country and most of Eastern, South East, North East Ireland do not speak Irish. Go raibh maith agat Dia anseo san Iarthar a dhéanaimid ach tá sé á labhairt den chuid is mó sa bhaile. Buíochas le Dia, tá scoileanna againn a ghlaonn ar Ghaelscoileanna ar scoileanna iad a bhfuil Gaeilge acu. Tá gealtachta againn freisin nuair nach labhraíonn na daoine ach Gaeilge.
AND Hawaii i hope you resurrect your language to its full linguistic power and I truly pray it will become the 1st and only language of Hawaii

What is the hawaiian way of thinking. Sounds interesting but he didnt elaborate.
It is Nature-Spirituality.
And the Cosmos is felt and understood also.
Another element is Ancestor veneration.
(Reverence for Ancestors).
