In view of the increasing interest in the language of the Hawaiian, people, amounting to a renascence in Hawaiiana, it has been felt that a new work in the Hawaiian language, based on modern systems of instruction such as are used in teaching French, Spanish, Italian or German should be prepared for use in class-rooms throughout the islands and also for individual study.

[ 3 ] LESSON 1 The Hawaiian Language “Why should we study the Hawaiian language?” is a question we sometimes hear. We may answer that in a land where there live several thousand Hawaiians, the study of the language will result in our ability to converse with these people. Not only shall we be able to talk with the Hawaiian people themselves, but we shall be able to read Hawaiian language documents, stories, history, and other forms of literature. The study of Hawaiian will help us obtain the spirit of the ancient Hawaiians, to understand the full meaning of their thoughts as expressed in this beautiful and meaningful language. Origin of the Language Hawaiian is one branch of the Polynesian language. It may well be regarded as a dialect of the Polynesian, others being the Samoan, Tahitian, Marquesan, Tuamotuan, and Maori dialects chiefly. There is an affinity between these dialects, some being closer than others. The Maori, Tahitian and Tuamotuan are closer to the Hawaiian in vocabulary than is the Samoan to the Hawaiian. And yet there are many words in the Samoan dialect exactly the same as in Hawaiian. The original home of the Polynesians was in India in all probability, and after a long period of migration they found themselves in the Pacific Ocean area. It is most likely that Tahiti or Raiatea in the Society Islands was the point from which the original migration of the alii and kahuna to Hawaii took place almost a thousand years ago. There are records of various voyages between Tahiti and Hawaii; the names of these pioneers have been handed down from generation to generation. Some Peculiarities of the Language Every word must end in a vowel and every syllable must end in a vowel. No two consonants can be pronounced without at least one vowel between them. There is but one exception to this rule and it applies to a word introduced by the American missionaries‒ Kristo, from “Christ.” [5] Any amount of vowels may be used together; for example, hooiaioia, which means “certified.” Elision is employed, for example, na ’lii, for na alii, the chiefs. The gutteral break represents the elision of k in other Polyne sian dialects. It is indicated by the hamzah (‘). The break is the essential part of the word. The using of the guttural break makes a different word, for example, a‘o means to teach, while a‘o means light, the world, etc. la means he, she, it, while i‘a means a fish. The Hawaiian is rich in descriptive terms, for rains, winds, etc. There are six words meaning to carry‒ hali, auamo (on the shoulder), ka'ika'i (in the hands), hii (in the arms), koi (on stick between two men), and haawe (on the back). Some expressions are cumbersome; for example in the Lord's Prayer the words, “Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debt ors” is but nine words in English and twenty-four in Hawaiian. There are no true diphthongs, but for the European ae, ai, ao, au, ei, ia and ua may be so classed. There are no consonants in the phrase “E i ae oe iaia”‒“Speak thou to him there.” Such an expression as “across” in English is difficult to ex press in Hawaiian. Mai kekahi aoao a i kekahi aoao ae, is perhaps the shortest way in which such a concept as “across” may be expressed. The Alphabet There are 12 letters in the alphabet. Of these, A, E, Ī, Q,U are vowels and H, K, L, M, N, P, W are consonants. The vowels are pronounced thus: a as in father, e as in vein, i as in peep, o as in own, u as in book. The consonants are pronounced thus: h as in hale, k as in Kate, l as in laid, m as in moon, n as in noon, p as in peak w as in alway.

  • An Emersonian in the Sandwich Islands: the Career of Giles Waldo
    An Emersonian in the Sandwich Islands: The Career of Giles Waldo Martin K. Doudna In the spring of 1845, two young friends of Ralph Waldo Emerson embarked independently on two very different experiments that were designed to answer some of the problems they faced. One of these experiments, Henry David Thoreau's sojourn of a little over two years at Walden Pond, is well known. The other experiment, Giles Waldo's sojourn of nearly three years in the Hawaiian Islands, deserves to be better known, not only because it provides an interest- ing contrast to Thoreau's experiment but also because it sheds light on the role of consuls and merchants in the Islands in the busy 1840s.1 Giles Waldo (1815 -1849), the eighth of nine children of a farmer in Scotland, Connecticut, came from an established New England family. Like Emerson, he was a descendant of Cornelius Waldo, who had settled in Ipswich, Massachusetts, in 1654,2 and his family home—a sturdy two-story New England farmhouse built about 1715—is owned today by the Scotland Historical Society. Emerson met him in January 1843 in Washington, D. C, while there on a lecture tour and described that meeting in a letter to Caroline Sturgis, who was later to marry Waldo's close friend, William Tappan: In the Rotunda of the Capitol, in the organic heart, that is, of our fair continent, my companion brought to me a youth of kindest & gentlest manners and of a fine person, who told me he had wished to see me more than any other person in the country, & only yesterday had expressed that wish.

  • The Voyage of the Parthian: Life and Religion Aboard a 19Th-Century Ship Bound for Hawai'i
    CHARLES WILLIAM MILLER The Voyage of the Parthian: Life and Religion Aboard a 19th-century Ship Bound for Hawai'i What wonder that we so long for release from this little prison-house! —Laura Fish Judd (1828) THE CRIES OF "Land O, Land O" echoed throughout the small ship. Many passengers, both men and women, scrambled on deck, ran to the ship railings, and strained their eyes to behold, for the first time, their new home emerging from the cloudy horizon. Below deck, the excitement became too much for one passenger as her emotions got the best of her. Her screams alarmed some of those who remained in their berths, including one passenger whose recent miscarriage had kept her in bed for over a week. It was not land, however, but only "Cape-fly-away" and, as the passengers watched, their new home dis- solved before their eyes. They returned below deck sorely disap- pointed. The cry went up again that evening, "Land O, Land O," but once again, it was nothing but clouds. The following morning, all eyes searched the western horizon, with each person questioning the other, "Have you seen land yet? Have you seen land yet?" The answer always came back, "No." Land birds were sighted, but not the land. Sailors cursed, passengers prayed, and Charles William Miller teaches in the Department of Philosophy and Religion at the Uni- versity of North Dakota. He is a biblical scholar whose primary research interests focus on the importance of social location in the interpretation of biblical texts. His current project is an examination of the biblical hermeneutics of 19th century missionaries to Hawai'i.

  • Puana 'Ia Me Ka 'Oko'a: a Comparative Analysis of Hawaiian
    Vol. 5 (2011), pp. 107-133 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ http://hdl.handle.net/10125/4494 Puana ‘Ia me ka ‘Oko‘a: A Comparative Analysis of Hawaiian Language Pronunciation as Spoken and Sung Joseph Keola Donaghy University of Hawai‘i at Hilo and University of Otago, New Zealand In this paper I argue that the differences between spoken Hawaiian and vocal perfor- mance of western-influenced “traditional” Hawaiian music are representative of the linguistic diversity found within the Hawaiian language. It contains a comparative analysis of Hawaiian Language Pronunciation as Spoken and Sung, using transcriptions of recorded examples by John Kameaaloha Almeida, a native speaker of the Hawaiian language and a prominent composer, singer, and instrumentalist. It will provide a pho- nemic analysis of notable and predictable variations heard in Hawaiian language vocal performances that are not heard in spoken Hawaiian. Further, it will show that rhythmic arrangement of morae over strong beats in the musical measure is largely analogous to accent in spoken Hawaiian, with some predictable exceptions. The paper also documents how, during his vocal performance, Almeida added three non-lexical vocables not heard in spoken Hawaiian. I argue that these characteristics and variation are indicative of the linguistic diversity found within the Hawaiian language and, as such, are worthy of the same attention and scholarly scrutiny as spoken Hawaiian. The second goal of this applied research is to present the results in a manner that is accessible to practitioners of Hawaiian language performance. 1.

  • The Laterwriting of Abraham Fornander, 1870-1887 A
    523 UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'llIBRARY "A TRUSTWORTHY HISTORICAL RECORD": THE LATERWRITING OF ABRAHAM FORNANDER, 1870-1887 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF EDUCATION IN EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATIONS MAY 2004 By Pamela Haight Thesis Committee: Eileen Tamura, Chairperson Gay Garland Reed Vilsoni Hereniko ABSTRACT Using a post-colonial framework, this thesis examines the later research and writing ofAbraham Fornander. The paper addresses the politics, religion, and society that informed Fornander's research and writing, then focuses more closely on his book, An Account ofthe Polynesian Race and international response to it. Fornander's tenacity in promoting his Western worldview and his efforts to advance his career infused his writings and, in the end, served to overshadow existing indigenous language and culture, hastening deterioration ofboth. Utilizing correspondence, early writing for newspapers, and other archival information, the paper demonstrates his attempts to attain authentic status for himselfand his work. Though inconclusive in terms ofproving Fornander's complicity with colonialism, the thesis presents another viewing ofone man's work and begs a previously hidden discussion. 111 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Purpose ofthe study 7 Methodology 10 Background to the study 13 Language and Colonization , 15 Representing Others 17 Collecting Cultures 21 19th Century Hawai'i 25 Abraham Fomander 30 Fomander's Newswriting 34 Fomander's Philological Research 50 Response to An Account ofthe Polynesian Race 61 Discussion and implications 75 Postscript 78 Appendix A: Letter from Rollin Daggett to Abraham Fomander 82 Appendix B: Letter from Abraham Fomander to Rollin Daggett.

  • Mission Stations
    Mission Stations The American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM), based in Boston, was founded in 1810, the first organized missionary society in the US. One hundred years later, the Board was responsible for 102-mission stations and a missionary staff of 600 in India, Ceylon, West Central Africa (Angola), South Africa and Rhodesia, Turkey, China, Japan, Micronesia, Hawaiʻi, the Philippines, North American native American tribes, and the "Papal lands" of Mexico, Spain and Austria. On October 23, 1819, the Pioneer Company of ABCFM missionaries set sail on the Thaddeus to establish the Sandwich Islands Mission (now known as Hawai‘i). Over the course of a little over 40-years (1820- 1863 - the “Missionary Period”), about 180-men and women in twelve Companies served in Hawaiʻi to carry out the mission of the ABCFM in the Hawaiian Islands. One of the earliest efforts of the missionaries, who arrived in 1820, was the identification and selection of important communities (generally near ports and aliʻi residences) as “Stations” for the regional church and school centers across the Hawaiian Islands. As an example, in June 1823, William Ellis joined American Missionaries Asa Thurston, Artemas Bishop and Joseph Goodrich on a tour of the island of Hawaiʻi to investigate suitable sites for mission stations. On O‘ahu, locations at Honolulu (Kawaiahaʻo), Kāne’ohe, Waialua, Waiʻanae and ‘Ewa served as the bases for outreach work on the island. By 1850, eighteen mission stations had been established; six on Hawaiʻi, four on Maui, four on Oʻahu, three on Kauai and one on Molokai. Meeting houses were constructed at the stations, as well as throughout the district.

P. 2 1 Digit zed by Google \ PREFACE AT the request of the Board of Education, I have .fi. endeavored to write a simple and concise history of the Hawaiian people, which, it is hoped, may be useful to the teachers and higher classes in our schools. As there is, however, no book in existence that covers the whole ground, and as the earlier histories are entirely out of print, it has been deemed best to prepare not merely a school-book, but a history for the benefit of the general public. This book has been written in the intervals of a labo­ rious occupation, from the stand-point of a patriotic Hawaiian, for the young people of this country rather than for foreign readers. This fact will account for its local coloring, and for the prominence given to certain topics of local interest. Especial pains have been taken to supply the want of a correct account of the ancient civil polity and religion of the Hawaiian race. This history is not merely a compilation. It is based upon a careful study of the original authorities, the writer having had the use of the principal existing collections of Hawaiian manuscripts, and having examined the early archives of the government, as well as nearly all the existing materials in print.

  • Effects of Language Contact on Hawaiian: a Brief Review
    Asian and African Languages and Linguistics, No.14, 2020 Effects of Language Contact on Hawaiian: A Brief Review IWASAKI, Kanae The University of Tokyo This paper discusses the influence of immigrant languages, especially English, on Hawaiian. Shortly after the Hawaiian ‘first contact’ with Western culture, immigrants from all over the world arrived on the Hawaii islands, mainly from the 1850s to the 1910s. This brought two types of changes to Hawaiian: the rise of Pidgin Hawaiian and changes to Indigenous Hawaiian. First, the grammatical characteristics of Pidgin Hawaiian are introduced based on previous research. Second, the influence of contact on Hawaiian’s lexicon, types of written texts, and grammar are addressed. Although lexical influence and the rise of different types of texts written in Hawaiian are relatively salient, the grammatical influence is more difficult to recognize. This paper attempts to investigate it with numerical data related to “directionals” and the “(so-called) nominalizer” in Hawaiian. The results are not clear; thus, it is suggested that a newer approach may be required to more accurately evaluate the influence of language contact. Keywords: Hawaiian, language contact, grammatical description, Pidgin Hawaiian, modern Hawaiian 1. Brief history of language and immigration in Hawaii 2. Types of influence 3. Pidgin Hawaiian 4. Influence on Hawaiian 5. Further questions: evaluation of the influence 1. Brief history of language and immigration in Hawaii There have been several major languages spoken in Hawaii between the 18th century and today, and there is no doubt that currently English has the largest number of speakers, but Hawaii’s Indigenous language is Hawaiian.
