My current NSF funding focuses on the linguistics of ‘ōlelo Hawaiʻi (the Hawaiian language), with the goal of making materials that will be helpful for the community in teaching, learning, and using the language more widely.

‘Ōlelo Hawai‘i is one of Hawaii's official languages, but past teaching bans and misguided policies nearly led to its extinction.

Through perseverance, Hawaii's communities have revitalized the language, but we must continue working to preserve and protect it.

E ola mau ka ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi!

#kanakasky anybody wanna go on an ʻōlelo journey with me? 🥺
A highly ambitious me is currently signing up for every online ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi course I can find. I normally don't do one, but I guess this will be my new years resolution.

Lmao Hawaiian airlines dropping ʻŌlelo after the merger is so FUNNY because we warned y’all it would happen. Being “inclusive” would be giving a thorough explanation of the language they are using.

I love this. I am blessed to live where the largest population of Kanaka Maoli lives on the islands. I find myself tearing up every time I hear younger generations speaking Ōlelo like it is the only language. It is just beautiful. www.hawaiipublicradio.org/local-news/2...
Students have been speaking ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi at this Molokaʻi school for over 30 years
