## Description

desertcart.com: Place Names of Hawaii: Revised and Expanded Edition: 9780824805241: Pukui, Mary Kawena, Elbert, Samuel H., Mookini, Esther T.: Books

Review: Outstanding resource ! - As a student of Hawaiian music, this comprehensive book of place names lends deeper understanding of many older compositions which refer to places whose names and significance have been lost over passage of time. Modern names like Pearl Harbor or Salt Lake have buried the traditional place names. This book, used in conjunction with Mary Pukui’s Hawaiian Dictionary, gives the student insight to cultural meaning beyond literal translation.
Review: Fascinating - pick a page and read it for fun! - Elbert and Pukui are the go-to folks to read about Hawaiian language. I have their dictionary and now I am happy to have this book as well! There are some very interesting explanations for some of the place names.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding resource !
*by H***E on May 6, 2019*

As a student of Hawaiian music, this comprehensive book of place names lends deeper understanding of many older compositions which refer to places whose names and significance have been lost over passage of time. Modern names like Pearl Harbor or Salt Lake have buried the traditional place names. This book, used in conjunction with Mary Pukui’s Hawaiian Dictionary, gives the student insight to cultural meaning beyond literal translation.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fascinating - pick a page and read it for fun!
*by H***Y on July 20, 2025*

Elbert and Pukui are the go-to folks to read about Hawaiian language. I have their dictionary and now I am happy to have this book as well! There are some very interesting explanations for some of the place names.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice update on the original edition, but still not as complete as one would like.
*by A***I on November 3, 2021*

Very handy little book to keep in the van when taking visitors around the island. Entertaining and interesting to find out what those interminable Hawaiian names really mean!
