Best Answer

Yes.

The current official Hawaiian alphabet only consists of 18 letters: 5 vowels: Aa, Ee, Ii, Oo, Uu; 8 consonants: Hh, Kk, Ll, Mm, Nn, Pp, Ww, ʻokina.

Okina is the Hawaiian apostrophe-like letter (') used to indicate the glottal stop.

The Hawaiian written language also uses a macron is called kahakō. It indicates vowel length, which changes meaning and the placement of stress: Āā, Ēē, Īī, Ōō, Ūū
