I love you in chamorro language?
Hu Guaiya Hao = I Love You
To say this properly however, you will need to know how to pronounce it.
This is how you would pronounce it:
Hu sounds like: Oon or ewwn (like 'spoon' without the sp)
Guaiya sounds like: Gwydzah or gwhy-dzzaah
Hao sounds like: How
So say it like this: oon gwydzah how
And you will be saying "I love you" in Chamorro!
Hafa Adai and Good Luck!
The island of Guam, OWNED BY THE UNITED STATES SINCE 1950, is located southeast of Asia, south of Tokyo and east of Manila, in the Pacific Ocean. It is bordered by the Philippine Sea to the west. It is the largest and southernmost island in the Marianas Archipelago. The island is very small, only a little over 200 square miles. The northern part of the island is a coralline limestone plateau whereas the southern portion is a chain of volcanic hills. The population is approximately 165,000. A third of the island is occupied by U.S. military forces, used as Naval and Air Force bases.
They do not participate in presidential elections for U.S. government but are represented in the Congress. The island elects a governor every four years and has a legislature of 21 members who are elected every 2 years.
A passport is needed to enter the island. The local languages spoken are English, Chamorro, and Japanese. Caucasians make up ten percent of the population. Thirty-seven percent are Chamorro, twenty-six percent Filipino and the remainder a combination of Chinese, Japanese and Korean residents. Eighty-five percent of the population are Roman Catholic. The island's holidays are much like those in America with a few exceptions: New Year's, Martin Luther King Day, President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Liberation day (July 21), Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran's Day, All Souls' Day (Nov. 2), Thanksgiving, Immaculate Conception Day (Dec. 8) and Christmas. The currency on Guam is American money. Other monies can be exchanged at the airport or financial establishments. Credit cards are accepted at most hotels, restaurants and stores around the island.
No, Guam was excluded in 1959 by redrawing Hawaii's borders.

There is apparently a "Guam Jewish Community" in Guam, and if you google it, you'll find their website. There is not a temple or synagogue.

The community also meets in hotels and houses of individual members.

Is there any representatives in Guam?
Yes, each island has an elected but non-voting representative in the US House of Representatives. Puerto Rico has a "resident commissioner" and Guam has a "delegate." Both can vote in committee but not on the House floor.
No, Guam is an organized unincorporated territory of the US. This means the US Congress has no intention of allowing it to become a state. The people have limited self government, meaning they can elect a governor and local legislators for a unicameral legislature, but cannot vote for US president and only have a non-voting delegate to the US House of Representative.
We are also confined by the Jones Act, which limits only US-flagged ships to enter the island's ports and do business, in the strictest interpretation. The only "constitution" the people have is one that was drawn up by the US Naval Administration in 1950 known as the Organic Act.

In 1898 the US recived Puerto Rico and Guam from what country?
