  • psalm 23? i don't think so...it sounds like the part when Jesus was teaching them the Lord's Prayer

  • omg...ew...

  • No, not twit-ish to mutual speakers, true, but to a world that doesn't not understand this island culture, it sounds abrasive and even caustic. In my family, it was stressed to speak standard English, and when speaking Hawaiian, speaking correctly. Sorry, I certainly came off strong in my initial quip. :-)

  • Nothing twit-ish about speaking pidgin. Speaking pidgin does not indicate education nor lack thereof. The least we can do to make up for missionaries taking away the Hawaiian language is to not gripe if someone wants to speak pidgin, as a matter of ethnic pride. And my goodness, they are reading the 23rd Psalm, not the story of the rich man. Mo' bettah tlissen da mele "Iesu a me Kanaka Waiwai".

  • omg this is funny!! they need to learn pidgin better do bradah!

  • The last time I heard anyone speaking in that brogue were my grandparents and they had to speak pidgin solely because of the newcomers from Asia and Brazil. In the home, they spoke standard English. The pidgin you hear now is mostly just pretend and ignorance. I KNOW we don't really speak this way. We need to end it. We present ourselves to a global audience as being twits.
