What I was taught so far is that in order to make a #Hawaiian verb passive, add the particle ʻia after it. I have not gotten to this point in the language study yet, but it is evident that sometimes (maybe always?) you can also just append “a” to the verb and it becomes a passive form. I have also not gotten to making imperatives yet, but apparently appending an a is the way (or one way). There are a lot of 4-letter words in Hawaiian that show up in #Hulihua in their passive/imperative form.

Just got back from #NewYork after laying over some “Hawaian” (always thought it’s pronounced #Hawaiian but, it’s just me) cookies (I think 3 is enough (they’re so nutty. Maybe)) and #Melozio …it’s in the Latin American Arabicas. You know, there, their honeyed sweetness and cereal notes? So suggestive, "melodious" and! so frickin’ pleasant…tastee 👅… I just🫀it so.

April 13th: Puni

Our Hawaiian word for today is puni meaning surrounded, controlled, overcome. Now that you know how to use the ho‘o prefix, you know that ho‘opuni can mean to surround, enclose, get control of: ho‘opuni.

…and here’s “dizzy” number #27 — yesterday’s Hulihua puzzle solution. “Pihoa” isn’t listed when looking up “dizzy” … but when you look up “pihoa,” the definition consists of the single word “dizzy”

Leho == cowry shell
#hawaiianWordOfTheDay #cowryShell #HPR #HawaiianPublicRadio #hawaiian
https://www.hawaiipublicradio.org/hawaiian-word-of-the-day-april-6th
April 6th: Leho

Our Hawaiian word for today is leho for cowry shell. It is a very generic term for the cowry. Leho can be modified by adding other words to make the name specific for each of the many types of cowry, but leho will always work.

Pilgrimage to Takahashi Market this afternoon, in San Mateo

We tried the Mochiko Chicken Moco Loco, with a side of tater tots

Mochiko chicken: "crispy, soy-ginger marinated fried chicken (using sweet rice flour)"
