2 from Virginia

[foxyfox31]

Hello all! My husband and I will be moving to Oahu. My husband has a job waiting for him and he will be out by September. I will follow either in December or May. We have plenty of questions, so you'll be hearing from us.

So glad I found this place

Welcome to HT.

We are in VA too(Fairfax and Virginia beach), heading to Oahu on Set 4th.

Great board here, lots of very informative people that I am sure will be helpful.

Welcome to HT! If you're here in December, I hope you won't miss having a white Christmas since it's hard (not impossible but hard) to find snow in the islands

Actually, I hate snow! I'm soo tired of being cold in the winter. I grew up in Md and we actually get very little snow here in southern Va...however, it sure can get cold enough! I'm looking forward to tropical winters
Give me a palm tree any x-mas.

Hey Foxy, I just moved to southern Virginia!
But from Oregon not Hawaii. I am the HT transient. I just walked in off the street!
Welcome to the board.

Aloha kaua! Pehea 'oe? Maika'i no au, mahalo. Pehea kou kane? 'O Alex ko'u inoa, aka 'o 'Alika ko'u inoa Hawai'i. He kaikamahine au. Ke a'o mai nei i ka 'olelo Hawai'i. Aloha au i ka 'olelo no ka mea nani 'o ia.

Do you need a translation of that? I'd be happy to provide one for you if you like.

Mahalo,
'Alika

Yes, I'd love a translation! My husband and I plan to learn some of the basics of Hawaiian so we can at least pronounce street signs...even if we won't always know what they mean

Re: 2 from Virginia

I said:
Hello to both of us! How are you? I'm good indeed, thank you. How's your husband? My name is Alex, but my Hawaiian name is 'Alika. I'm a girl. I'm learning the Hawaiian language. I love the language because it's beautiful.
E kala mai for all you 'olelo speakers out there. I don't know if you guys noticed, but in the last sentence, I accidentally forgot to put the subject, "au," in it. It should have said: "Ke a'o mai nei au i ka 'olelo Hawai'i."

Re: 2 from Virginia

Wow! Thanks for the translation, that's pretty cool

Re: 2 from Virginia

Sorry guys, I've been away for 3 weeks. I know this thread is kinda dead, but I just wanted to say this to you: Email me with any questions you may have about the Hawaiian language. I can answer them for you.
