'Ōlelo Hawai'i - The Vowels!
In 'Ōlelo Hawai'i, the vowels are pronounced differently than how we usually would in English. Similarly to languages such as Japanese or Spanish, in Hawaiian, the vowels are pronounced as: A - "ah", E - "eh", I - "ee", O - "oh", U - "ooh"; instead of "Ay", "Ee" "Ay" "Oh" "You". This means words like "lomi lomi" are pronounced as "low-mee low-mee" !

Beware the Night Marchers
Just in time for Halloween, let's talk Night Marchers! The Night Marchers (or huaka'i pō in Hawaiian) are ghostly apparitions of Ancient Hawaiian Warriors that move in a procession protecting a sacred king, chief, or chiefess. They roam about at night, hence the name, and you know when they are near if you can hear drums, chanting, conch shells, or chanting. You can usually also see torches. If you accidentally end up in the Night Marchers' path, you must lay facedown, close your eyes and play dead.
