dc.descriptionThis interview, conducted by students in Professor Kim Compoc’s Fall 2024 Humanities 300 course at the University of Hawaiʻi – West Oʻahu, features Professor Kaua Neumann, a Hawaiian language instructor. Professor Neumann discusses his journey in Hawaiian language revitalization, the role of mele in cultural education, and the challenges of raising children in an ʻōlelo Hawai‘i household. He shares insights on the importance of embedding language in daily life and traditional practices, the difficulties of shifting from English to Hawaiian within families, and the broader goal of keeping Hawaiian a living language rather than a written relic. The discussion also touches on the significance of place names in mō‘olelo, language-learning strategies, and opportunities for students to engage in Hawaiian cultural work through internships and community projects.
