Each week during the school year, Hale Kuamoʻo, the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo’s Hawaiian Language Center, posts a new “Word of the Week” as part of a series of short videos called Moʻohua.
Once a week, a single ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian language) word is introduced along with its meaning and an example sentence of its usage.
This week’s word is aupuni, meaning government, organization, or system of laws for people.
Aloha Poʻahā kākou! Eia mai ke kolu o nā haumāna, ʻo Kalani Carlson, ke hoʻolaha aku nei i ka huaʻōlelo o ka pule, ʻo “aupuni.”
