A POCKET GUIDE TO THE HAWAIIAN LANGUAGE is a small book, only 60 pages, that gives the reader a basic understanding of the words and phrases one might find in Hawaii.
It provides a brief history of the language and gives a pronunciation guide, which explains how to properly pronounce words, and gives common everyday words and phrases that are used in Hawaii.
It's great for someone like me who will be visiting the island for summer vacation, my first visit actually, and wants to learn a little on proper pronunciation etc. of the street names and other words that are used in everyday conversation in Hawaii.
You won't become fluent in the language of course, but at least you'll know how to pronounce words when you see them written on signs and menus and won't embarrass yourself to the locals.
