Nā Hunekuhi

The hunekuhi are little words that you use in Hawaiian to relate to movement, position, and the direction something is facing. You use a hunekuhi to tell that someone is moving away from you, to tell that something is facing you, and to tell that something seems far away. The hunekuhi do not translate as individual words into English. Instead they just give a feeling. For example aʻe does not really translate to “up.” The way you say “up” in Hawaiian is i luna. Aʻe just gives a feeling of upward. All four of the hunekuhi and the feelings that they convey are given below.

mai  towards me, towards us, to me, to us, facing me, facing us

aku  a direction in a straight forceful line not towards me, facing away from me, facing away from us, far

aʻe   in several directions with short jerky movements, not towards me, in an upward direction, facing away from me

iho  in a downwards direction, down into myself (used with thinking, drinking, eating), very close
