<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Hi guys,
I'm back home.<br>
Thanks for the comments regarding e-mailing.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">I just
would like to add a few things as regarding language use and varieties.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">1 - In the
Waikiki tourist area of Honolulu
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">Japanese</span></strong> is
predominant.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">In the
Sheraton Waikiki most indications and shops are bilingual English-Japanese,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">some local
shops are Japanese only.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">2 - I could
very hardly find a sound recording in local <strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">Pidgin</span></strong>;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">It is
considered somehow locally as a non-language.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Some books
are just on the level of telling of jokes (es e.g. Peppo's "To Da Max
series", Tonouchi's "Da Kine Dictionary" etc.).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">In the
Barnes & Noble they said there exists a audio recording of the bible in
Pidgin,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">but I
couldn'd find it anywhere.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">The printed
form was not so difficult to find:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Da Jesus
Book, Hawaii Pidgin New Testament, 2000, 6th printing 2006, Wycliff Bible
Translations, Orlando,
vii + 744 pp, ISBN 0-938978-21-7, USD 14.95</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="PT-BR">A sample:</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;" lang="PT-BR"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">The only
recording I found was a cabaret-type CD by Rap Reiplinger,: "Poi Dog
with Crabs", The Mountain Apple Cy, Honolulu,
bar code 7-61268-2020-2</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Here is
Track 02 as a sample:</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">3 - as to <strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">Hawaiian</span></strong> here is a recording with
text:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"><a href="http://www.euro-support.be/temp/wight56.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.euro-support.be/temp/wight56.jpg</a> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">It comes from
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Kahikahealani
Wight, Learn Hawaiian at Home, Bess Press, Honolulu, 147 pp + 2 audio CDs,
1992, 2005, ISBN 1-57306-245-6, USD 24.95</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">The
recording is a cut of the last 4 min of the 15 min track 5 of the first CD
(going with chapter 4).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>

The Kahuna is still smiling because of the textbook you mentioned.<br>
