    Aloha no...

    These are the months as I learned them:

    Ianuali
    Pepeluali
    Malaki
    Apalila
    Mei
    Iuni
    Iulai
    Aukake
    Kepakemapa
    Nowemapa
    Kekemapa

    Do they not have a word for October?

This thread is so interesting.....FYI - a couple of months ago a friend of mine tried to pay for a ticket that she received while at the HNL airport....she wrote her check out in Hawaiian and the clerk at District Court on Alakea St. would not take her check....she tried to explain that Hawaiian was the official language and that it was acceptable form of language but the clerk still refused......go figgah!
        A resource for writing checks in Hawaiian can be found here.

          E Alana e,

          I'm glad to have you as a hoaloha and I do not mind being corrected in 'olelo at all, but, maybe, could we do that on IM instead of in a forum with people like Pua'i reading this? I don't want Hawaiians to think that you're trying to challenge me even though you and I both know that you're not.

          As far as the months go, I didn't realize the typo I made in "Iune" until after my message was posted - I accidentally wrote "Iuni". The reason I didn't put any of those 'okina in there was because I had learned them using the "Instant Immersion Hawaiian" CD's and so couldn't tell that they were at the beginning of some of them. E kala mai no...

            As the both of you are pretty established personalities here on HT, and it is also known that you are hoaaloha, it wouldn't have been seen as a challenge, ʻAlika. Knowledge about the months are common and easily researched, thus the content of this discussion wouldnʻt have folks like me awaiting any hakakā.

            "Mahalo" would have sufficed.

              E kala mai e Pua'i. I didn't know that. Oh, and yes, mahalo e Alana. Normally I would say that, I just forgot as I was concerned with how others would react. It's all maika'i...
