This book has around 11,000 words with adequate definitions.I like the fact that the people that compiled this dictionary included names and even a guide to assist in pronounciation.This nook is not an exhaustive researh on the Hawaiian language; but will greatly assist in research; Two Bears.Aloha nui loa (I love you very much).

For the first time you can feel like you know what are you talking about in a language which isn't your mother tounge.In a short time you can learn all the words you need for a basic comunication and even more.
