   Extractions: Abstract (In the language there is life, in the language there is death, Ancient Hawaiian Proverb). Though some believe that the Internet will strengthen the worldwide dominance of English , indigenous language activists around the world are working for a different electronic future, one based on linguistic rights and cultural diversity. One of the most inspiring projects designed to bring about such a future is the (Powerful Voice) bulletin board system, the first Internet communication systems in the world fully based on an indigenous language. This article describes the development and use of , but first provides some necessary background information on the history of the Hawaiian language and current revitalization efforts. At the same time, though, the Hawaiian people and their culture were being devastated by Western colonization. Diseases introduced by colonizers reduced the Hawaiian population from some 300,000 in 1778 to approximately 50,000 a century later (Wilson, in press; Reinecke, 1969). Traditional language and art forms, such as the hula, were repressed due to pressure from the missionaries, who viewed these cultural expressions as "foul" and "idolatrous" . Language Revitalizaton A group of Hawaiian language scholars and community leaders established the Hawaiian medium (Voice Nest) pre-schools in 1984 and lobbied for the removal of the ban on the use of Hawaiian as a medium of education. Three years later, the board of education approved the formation of the

   Extractions: We were the first of a number of couples in Hawai'i who have revived Hawaiian as the first language of their home and children. Both of us are faculty members in the Hawaiian Studies Department at the University of Hawai'i at Hilo. Kauanoe Kamana is the president of the 'Aha Punana Leo and past director of the Hale Kuamo'o Hawaiian language center at the University of Hawai'i at Hilo. She is currently on leave from the University teaching in the first intermediate and high school Hawaiian medium classes in one hundred years. Bill is on the legislative committee of the State's Hawaiian Immersion Advisory Council. Punana Leo Hawaiian Medium Preschools In 1983, we were part of a small group of Hawaiian speaking educators who formed the 'Aha Punana Leo to reestablish Hawaiian medium education. At that time, the Hawaiian medium public school system of Hawai'i had been closed for nearly 90 years and the last generation in which Hawaiian was the common language of all Hawaiians was in their seventies. The focus of the 'Aha Punana Leo was to assist the few families trying to revive Hawaiian in the home and the tiny community that still used Hawaiian at all age levels by beginning family run preschools. Ours was the first family to re-establish Hawaiian as the sole language of the home and we were determined that our children would attend preschool and public school in Hawaiian.

   Extractions: Hawaiian Language Program Wai'anae High School offers eight classes of Hawaiian Language from introductory through 4th year. For the school year 96-97 we have three teachers and three part-time teachers. All part-time teachers are WHS graduates enrolled in Hawaiian Studies program at the University of Hawai'i. One of the PTT's works as a liaison with the immersion schools where WHS students work for credit. This greatly enhances the students' language skills while supplying valuable help to the immersion schools. These PTTs also assist in the classroom, working in small groups, demonstrating skills and tutoring when necessary. Summary: The Hawaiian Studies Center was formed in 1955 as a cooperative project between Wai'anae High School and the Culture Learning Center at Ka'ala. The purpose of the project is to provide the students of Wai'anae High School with a program that integrates the learning of Hawaiian culture, language, and history with the related studies of anthrpology, ecology, agriculture, food production, nutrition, and communication. Students learn through classroom experiences at Wai'anae High School and field experiences at the Cultural Learning Center at Ka'ala. The program has a strong career component, so that students learn and practice skills they can apply to future employment and further education. Approximately 35 students are enrolled for the 1196-1997 school year. The expectation is for a similar enrollment in subsequent years. Students who are interested in continuing their studies after their first year in teh program can sign up for independent research prjects with a Hawaiian Studies Center teacher for the following year.

9. Reading Online - Electronic Classroom: Technology And The Hawaiian Language
   Broad overview on technology and hawaiian language revival.  
   http://www.readingonline.org/electronic/hawaii/
   
   Extractions: Abstract The Hawaiian language, on the verge of extinction as a spoken language, has been revived through a combination of teaching ancient Hawaiian culture and traditions and the extensive incorporation of modern technology. Through private Hawaiian language immersion preschools and Hawaiian Language Immersion programs in public elementary and secondary schools, many children in Hawaii are becoming fluent users of Hawaiian. These programs emphasize traditional songs, chants, and materials, but also rely heavily on modern technology to enhance the students' language development. Using a variety of computer programs and Hawaiian language computer networks, teachers and students are able to develop Hawaiian language materials, communicate with other Hawaiian writers and speakers through e-mail, and create archives of individual and group work. Through the blending of the old and the new, tremendous progress has been made toward the revival of this ancient language.

Guest Book Hawaii Menu: Places Food People Hawaiian Language Picture Gallery The Hawaiian Language English is the main language in the state of Hawaii but the Hawaiian language still exists today. Almost all the people in Hawaii speak English as well as a few words of Hawaiian. Most of the street names are Hawaiian such as Kalakaua Avenue. Some people who have Hawaiian blood have Hawaiian names as well. This page is basically a glossary of basic Hawaiian words for you people to learn. Even though most of the people in Hawaii speak English, some of them speak pidgin English. The way they speak may sound primitive to others (people from the mainland or other countries that speak standard English). I think pidgin English is a part of Hawaii's culture.
