"A small community of native speakers of Hawaiian remains... possibly numbering just over 300 in total – inclusive of those residing on Ni‘ihau and Kaua‘i... by the end of the first decade of the 21st century, there may have been as many as two or three thousand native speakers of English (including Kānaka Maoli) who had learned Hawaiian as an additional language, to varying levels of proficiency, in educational institutions... the average proficiency level of L2s is at the lower end of the spectrum and therefore L2s in general are not as competent or fluent in the language as L1s."

"The Hawaiian known among native speakers is extremely endangered and under pressure from the overwhelming English-speaking communities of Kaua‘i County to conform to English and Pidgin... Although the churches and schools that serve the Ni‘ihau community have become the only venues left where Ni‘ihau speakers gather, families still speak the language at home, especially on Ni‘ihau. However, a significant number of children and young adults in the community are preferring to speak Pidgin or English over Hawaiian, and as these people grow up and become parents, they often prefer to speak English to their children, thus severing the linguistic ties that they were privileged to grow up with. Each choice to speak Pidgin or English over Hawaiian contributes to the destruction of the community of native speakers. This is how Kaua‘i residents ended up becoming English/Pidgin monoglots in the 20th century, as opposed to being multilingual, and the same thing is happening among the Ni‘ihau community today."

ACTITUD DEL HABLANTE

"A stigma persisted in the 20th century in which government and society looked down upon the Hawaiian language, its speakers, its value, and its contribution to Hawai‘i’s unique culture. The result was the decimation of Hawaiian speaking communities coupled with low self esteem among Hawaiian speakers and the end of the transmittal of cultural and esoteric knowledge embedded in the language."

Standardized Hawaiian (Roman-based without T and R variants)

Ortografía

"k and t are interchangeable variants of the same consonant in Hawaiian on all islands. Thus, for example, tūtū and kūkū both mean ‘grandma’ or ‘grandpa’. In the Ni‘ihau variety of Hawaiian, katahiaka, takahiaka, and takahiata are all said and all mean ‘morning’. With the standardized Hawaiian alphabet, this word is spelled kakahiaka. Furthermore, l and r (the latter pronounced as in Spanish) are interchangeable variants of the same consonant in the speech of Ni‘ihau... as a result of the Hawaiian alphabet promulgated by Christian missionaries of the [1820s], k and t came to spelled only as ‘k’, l and r as ‘l’ only."

DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA UBICACIÓN: "There no longer exists a Kaua‘i native speaker community, but Ni‘ihau still has a viable, albeit fragile, native speaker community."

COMENTARIOS SOBRE CONTEXTO DE LA LENGUA: A considerable number of young speakers are being trained in the language through immersion courses. There are elderly speakers in addition to these young speakers, but relatively few middle-aged speakers, which results in a lack of communication situations for active language use.
Ortografía: There is widespread literacy in the language.

"Although there is no accurate census or survey, Kapono (1998:199) estimates that there were about 5,000 Hawaiian speakers in 1995. Of these, 1,000 were mānaleo (i.e., "heritage speakers" or "native-speaking elders"), 400 of whom had connections to the island of Ni'ihau .... We may identify another 1,000 of the estimate to be young native Hawaiian speakers, who acquired the language naturally, during the critical period, and without formal instruction .... The remaining 3,000 speakers in Kapono's estimate were second language speakers, who learned the language (often fluently) through formal instruction."

"By the end of the 20th century, it is likely that there were significantly fewer than 1,000 native speakers of Hawaiian. Indeed, among Hawaiian language teachers today, it is regularly postulated that there are fewer than 500 native speakers left. However, by the end of the first decade of the 21st century, there may have been as many as two or three thousand native speakers of English (including Kānaka Maoli) who had learned Hawaiian as an additional language, to varying levels of proficiency, in educational institutions... Apart from the Ni‘ihau community, there are very few native-speakers. Most of them are aged 60 or over and many of them have not had the opportunity to use the language for day-to-day purposes in decades and therefore have forgotten how to express many thoughts in Hawaiian."

COMENTARIOS ADICIONALES: "Privately owned Ni‘ihau Island is the only place left in the Hawaiian Islands today where, owing to restricted access to non-residents and the tight-knit, rural lifestyle of residents, a small community of native speakers of Hawaiian remains. Hawaiian-speaking families who are relatives of those living on Ni‘ihau live primarily on the west side of neighboring Kaua‘i Island."
