Talk:malama ka 'aina
Latest comment: 11 years ago by Angr
The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
Sum of parts, in addition to bad grammar and misspellings. "Care for the land, respect the land" would be E mālama i ka ʻāina. The entry was probably taken from a 2010 episode of Hawaii Five-O. --Makaokalani (talk) 13:45, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Is E mālama i ka ʻāina an established saying in Hawaiian, such that it would be worth having that as an entry? If so, we should just move the existing entry to the correct spelling. —Angr 14:35, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Not as far as I know. Just a normal sentence, like English save the whales. --Makaokalani (talk) 15:03, 24 May 2013 (UTC) Hawaiian, or pseudo-Hawaiian, sentences are often used in English, just to make the speaker sound more genuine or local. --Makaokalani (talk) 15:09, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Then delete. —Angr 15:39, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
