<h1>Aloha</h1>

|

<h2>Etymology</h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The word aloha derives from the Proto-Polynesian root <i>*qalofa</i>. It has cognates in other Polynesian languages, such as Samoan alofa
|
|||
|
|
and Māori aroha, also meaning "love."</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p><abbr title="Aloha Editor">AE</abbr> is the word's most advanced browser based <abbr title="Rich Text Editor">RTE</abbr> made with aloha passion.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>A folk etymology claims that it derives from a compound of the Hawaiian words alo meaning "presence", "front", "face", or "share"; and
|
|||
|
|
ha, meaning "breath of life" or "essence of life." Although alo does indeed mean "presence" etc., the word for breath is spelled with a macron
|
|||
|
|
or kahakō over the a (hā) whereas the word aloha does not have a long a.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h2>Usage</h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Before contact with the West, the words used for greeting were welina and anoai. Today, "aloha kakahiaka" is the phrase for "good
|
|||
|
|
morning." "Aloha ʻauinalā" means "good afternoon" and "aloha ahiahi" means "good evening." "Aloha kākou" is a common form of "welcome to all."</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In modern Hawaiʻi, numerous businesses have aloha in their names, with more than 3 pages of listings in the Oʻahu phone book alone.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h2>Trends</h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Recent trends are popularizing the term elsewhere in the United States. Popular entertainer, Broadway star and Hollywood actress Bette
|
|||
|
|
Midler, born in Honolulu, uses the greeting frequently in national appearances. The word was also used frequently in the hit television drama
|
|||
|
|
Hawaii Five-O. In the influential 1982 film comedy Fast Times at Ridgemont High, the eccentric teacher Mr. Hand makes use of the greeting. The
|
|||
|
|
Aloha Spirit is a major concept in Lilo and Stitch, a very popular Disney series of movies and TV shows, set in Hawaiʻi. The drama series Lost,
|
|||
|
|
shot in Hawaiʻi, has a thank you note at the end of the credits saying "We thank the people of Hawaiʻi and their Aloha Spirit". Aloha is a term
|
|||
|
|
also used in the Nickelodeon program Rocket Power.</p>

|
|
<li>Arguably the most famous historical Hawaiian song, "Aloha ʻOe" was written by the last queen of Hawaii, Liliʻuokalani.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The term inspired the name of the ALOHA Protocol introduced in the 1970s by the University of Hawaii.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>In Hawaii someone can be said to have or show aloha in the way they treat others; whether family, friend, neighbor or stranger.</li>
