"ʻŌlelo"

Translation: Language

[ilmolleggi]

Can't this also mean language as in ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi?

[DouglasJulien]

Yes. Polynesian languages donʻt distinguish parts of speech as strictly as European languages do.

[amajikisbunny]

Thank you. That will surely help me when learning.

[Gryphowl]

My translation is 'Speak'.

[Margaret942443]

That is also another definition. Many Hawaiian words have more than one meaning depending on context.

I couldn't hear the audio file :(

[niahrya]

No audio for me as well.

[V_E_S]

That's because they probably don't have one yet.

[KeoniKaaia]

Same here. The Audio wasn't playing

[RoseHowell2]

I just got an update, and now I can hear sound on some of them, including this one. Try updating the app.

For a lingot, does anyone the correct pronunciation of "ʻŌlelo"?

[KiUlv]

OH-lell-oh

[Starfire_1234]

[ˈʔo:lelo], I believe.

[William503738]

I am learning languages that help me to speak Hawaiian.

[niahrya]

"Language" wasn't given as a possible answer from the bracket. I had to go with "speak"

[Margaret942443]

Both are correct

[_umizu]

same for me

[pauliscool123]

ʻŌlelo: this means talk. why were none of the options talk?!?!?!

[kelii....]

You can report it as a correct possibility.

[Audrey577269]

Why doesnt the sound work!?!!?!?

[Joe610454]

Is this a verb? As in 'to speak'?

[kelii....]

It means to speak and it means language.

Is there a certain language keyboard I need to install to be able to type the correct "o" with the line above it?

[Scoot841692]

Swift Key has a Hawaiian keyboard

[WillSweene3]

I love duolingo.
