How do you say three sisters in hawiian?

Answer 1

This could be very confusing to non-native HI`ians. Three is ʻakolu. For sisters, you would say:

kaiku `ana (if she is the older sister of a girl) [ki-koo-ah-nah]

kaikaina (if she is the younger sister of a girl) [ki-ka-ee-nah]

kaikuahine (if she is the sister of a boy) [ki-kooah-he-nay]

These are complicated even for us, so we often just say:

kuaʻana (older), kaina (younger), and kuahine.
