How to Say Happy New Year in Hawaiian
Posted on Sun, Dec 30, 2007 by Sheila
If you are going to be in Hawaii over the New Year holiday, you may want to learn this phrase: Hau’oli Makahiki Hou
It means Happy New Year and it is pronounced “how-oh-lay ma-ka-hee-key ho”.
If you’re going to be on Oahu to welcome in 2010, you’ll find ideas of where to see fireworks and find new year’s eve events in Waikiki, Honolulu, and Oahu. If Maui is where you’ll be ringing in the New Year, then see this list of special Maui New Year’s Eve events.
As 2010 nears, I’d like to be among the first to wish you Hau ‘oli Makahiki Hou!

You know what? I don’t know! Maybe I’ll go running at 11:30 and head down to Aloha Tower! At least I won’t have to worry about parking!

That sounds like a great plan, Evelyn. (I’ll pretend I’m not jealous now.)
