It can express surprise (\"Brah, you seen that wave?\"), camaraderie (\"Good to see you, brah\"), disbelief (\"No way, brah\"), and about a dozen other things depending entirely on the tone. It's the verbal handshake of Hawai'i's multicultural community, spoken equally by surfers, fishermen, school kids, and grandpas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHawaiian Pidgin (officially recognized as a creole language) developed from the mix of English, Hawaiian, Japanese, Filipino, Portuguese, and other languages that converged on the plantation fields and harbor towns of 19th-century Hawai'i. It is the living linguistic legacy of that multicultural history — colorful, expressive, and unmistakably local.
