That's right! Not only does Hawaii have it's own unique culture and beautiful language, but they also incorporate the other mostly used languages in the area! Like English and JAPANESE! Most of the signs, even on buildings and billboards are in English and Japanese! Here are just a few:  With more to come of course!

Actually Sora Ito, I haven't seen a single sign in bilingual Korean. It's all Japanese. The closest thing that has come to it are two block street name signs that have a small chinese translation in chinatown.

That's awesome. I'm not too surprised because I learned in History of Asian Americans that Hawaii is mostly populated with Japanese, Chinese, and Filippino.
