What does ua mai alii mean?

I am assuming the question here is: "O a mai ali'i?", which translates to - "How are you, mate?" or "How are things, mate?" Ali'i is Lord, and in the spiritual and religious perspective, it refers to God and Jesus. Ali'i (lord) is also given to a high chief. It is colloquially used and is a referral to the male gender. So in the question posed, it's an every day question between friends and family, so asking "O a mai ali'i", with it's literal translation "How are you lord?" does not sound correct. So instead, translating the idea/meaning, you would just say something like, "How are you mate/friend/brother?".
