Here's One For You Fishgirl
For those of you who don't know Hawaii has a grand total of 13 letters in their alphabet. Yeah, try reading street signs. They all sound the same! When you only have 13 letters in your alphabet there are only so many words that you can come up with until you have ran out of damn letters to choose from. And because of this I am pretty sure that when they run out of words to create, they just take an existing word and add more letters at the end. Last night I found out that our state fish is called the Humuhumunukunukuapua`a. "Um, can you use that in a sentence please."
