Each Wednesday, an ʻōleloHawaiʻi (Hawaiian language) word is introduced along with its meaning and an example of the word being used in a sentence.

The first two introductory videos feature Kekailiko Medeiros, a 2022 东精影业 Hilo graduate who earned a BA in and a certificate in ʻōleloHawaiʻi, and Joe Lindsey, a and Hawaiian studies double major.
