#hawaiian #hawaii #hawaiianlanguage #olelohawaii #languagelearning #language #polynesia #polynesian #moana Today we sit down with Dr. Keao NeSmith, PhD and go over just a few of the many words/phrases that have been coined by second language speakers of hawaiian and can often be heard amongst classroom settings but are not used amongst traditional native speakers of the language. Dr. NeSmith was raised in the small town of Kekaha, Kauai amongst many native speakers of both the Niihau community and Kauai. He went on to acquire the hawaiian language in his teens from his grandmother whom he lived with in Hauula, Oahu.
