Kea aole! Keokeo (kay-o-kay-o) means white.
If you are referring the term for white person, there really is none. Foreigner would be "malihini" defined as newcomer. Ha'ole is a term that has been combined and used as a slang referring to white people. The true meaning is actually 2 parts. First is "ha" which means breath. 2nd is "ole" which means no. The natives were overheard referring to Captain cook and his crew as Ha Ole or "no breath/life" due to the lack of pigmentation in their skins. They were thought at first to be ghosts. Over time, the two words have been combined to what we now know as "haole". But it does not mean white person.
