Did you know people in Hawaiʻi speak their own unique kind of English? It’s called Hawaiian Pidgin, and it’s a blend of English, Hawaiian, and other languages spoken by locals in everyday life. It’s casual, colorful, and full of cultural meaning. I can teach you how we really talk in Hawaiʻi—from phrases you’ll hear at the beach to what people say in local shops and with family. We can also talk about trip planning based on what we learn! Whether you're traveling soon or just love learning about Hawaiʻi, I’ll help you understand the culture behind the words. --- 🌺 Aloha Insider Newsletter – March 2025 Edition Discover Hawaiian culture, events, travel tips, and local flavors in this month's Aloha Insider! 🌿 Hawaiian Word of the Day: Kapu Kapu (adj./n.) – Forbidden, sacred, or restricted. The word kapu originates from ancient Hawaiian customs, referring to spiritual, social, and environmental restrictions. Today, it’s still used on signs around Hawaiʻi to mean “No Trespassing” or to mark sacred areas. 📖 Example Sentence: English: "This area is kapu, so visitors are not allowed." 日本語: 「このエリアはカプ（禁止）されているため、訪問者は立ち入り禁止です。」 🎬 Pop Culture Reference: Lilo & Stitch Lilo has a "kapu" sign on her bedroom door—her way of saying “Keep Out!”, just like the traditional use of the word in Hawaiian society. --- 🏆 Upcoming Hawaiian Event: King Kamehameha Day 📅 Date: June 11, 2025 📍 Location: Statewide (Oʻahu, Big Island, Maui, Kauaʻi) 🔗 King Kamehameha Day Events Honoring King Kamehameha I, this statewide holiday features floral parades, ceremonies, and traditional Hawaiian performances. ✨ What to Expect: Lei Draping Ceremony at Kamehameha statues Parades with paʻu riders (women in flowing dresses on horseback) Hawaiian music and cultural demos Tip: Catch the biggest celebration in Honolulu, or visit North Kohala (Big Island), where Kamehameha was born. --- 🏝 Hawaiʻi Travel Advice: How to Experience a Real Luau Not all luaus are the same!

Hello good teachers speaking English as their native language, How do you do. 1. What idle man can withtand the temptation of a woman to fascinate, and another man to eclipse.(original) 2. The idle man can withtand the temptation of a woman to fascinate, and he can withstand the temptation of another man to eclipse.(my guess to the original) Question: Which is grammatically correct? Do both have the same meaning? Mostly because I really don't understand why the word "What" is used in the original, (so) I imagine the number 2 which is my guess to the original. By grammar, ♦"what + subject( an idle man, oh…oh…I am perhaps sorry to guess here the author of original must have not neglect such simple article as a "an" before the "adjective idle") + predicate (can withstand) + object ( the temptation of a woman to fascinate) ♦ , IS a complex or complete noun phrase like ♦ what Tom ate yesterday), but then, the author suddenly writes "and another man to eclipse", apparently this is another noun phrase, which makes me totally be at a loss about the whole original structure as : a noun + and (another noun) like a apple and a table, it (the original)is two two nouns not complete sentence, how does it let me know what on earth it is means?!?! SO I HAVE TO exert my imagination so as to write number 2 , wanting to smooth the path to my anger at the author due to my poor English level, but wanting more to smooth the path to my boundless thanks to you because your explanation of the original by grammar definitely must be so logical and reasonable that it makes me suddenly correctly understand the original.

Simple grammar rule: Negation: - Use negative words (not, none, nobody, etc.) to express negation. For example: "I do not like coffee." "None of them did anything wrong." "Nobody answered the phone when I called."
