What Happened to the Hawaiian Language?

The Hawaiian Language has a rich history and in this episode we touch on some of the more important events that have led the Hawaiian language to where it is today. We also discuss some of the people who have had big influences on the revitalization of the language in Hawaiian and express gratitude for their hard work; people like Larry Kimura and Mary Kawena Pukui. We also explain why we don’t use okina & kahako. Though most of the things we touch on are overviews it leads to meaningful conversation on where the language is at today.Resources:Clinton Kanahele Collection: https://library.byuh.edu/clinton-kanahele-collectionKa Leo Hawaii Collection: https://ulukau.org/kaniaina/?l=enMaluhia’s Resource Page: https://www.kaalala.com/learning-resourcesEmily’s Resource Page: https://kaulumaika.com/pages/resource-explore-page
