Japanese, Chinese, and Portuguese.
Speakers of these other languages have
the right, however, to return to their
ancestral homes to c u l t i v a t e their
languages, a right not available to
Hawaiians. The indigenous nature of
Hawaiian has always been clear to
ethnic groups other than the English
speakers in Hawai'i, and non-Hawaiians
have a history of supporting and
learning Hawaiian, which is one reason
for the r e l a t i v e strength of the
language given the trying conditions
it has had to endure.
29/ Anglo-Saxon, a language of
complicated case endings and verb
paradigms, lost these complications
and much of i t s t r a d i t i o n al
vocabulary with subjugation of the
English people by the Norman French in
1066. The invading French used t h e ir
language in a l l areas of prestige,
leaving Anglo-Saxon a despised
language of the lower c l a s s e s.
Anglo-Saxon a e s t h e t i c culture did not
fare well under the French and the
weakening of the a e s t h e t i c culture
resulted in a further lack of support
for the base culture language. When
the French influence f i n a l l y ended and
the English resumed control of
prestige positions, the language that
remained was a pidgin-like mixture of
simplified Anglo-Saxon structure with
an extensive French-derived
vocabulary, changed in pronunciation
from that used by the French. This
once humble and despised broken
language, however, has become quite
respectable today as the English
language and is used as a means of
i n t e r n a t i o n a l communication.
Hawai'i's pidgin is similar to English
in that it derives from a simplified
Hawaiian with a massive dose of
foreign vocabulary and i t s origins l ie
in foreign domination of the Hawaiian
people.
30/ A section on strengthening the
Hawaiian language, also sent by OHA
and written by Larry Kimura, appears
in the Appendix of this Report, along
with information on legal aspects,
t r a n s c r i p t i o n s of Hawaiian interviews,
and testimony presented before the
Native Hawaiians Study Commission.
These documents were sent to the
Commission by OHA after the
incorporation of the Mr. Kimura's
"Language" paper into the Commission's
Final Report.
