    "makamela wahani o". Pidgin (correct speling)? That sounds more like the traditional native Hawaiian language.

    Hey cousin or Hey Bra sounds more like it DSTroy!

    A simplified form of speech that is usually a mixture of two or more languages, has a rudimentary grammar and vocabulary, is used for communication between groups speaking different languages, and is not spoken as a first or native language. Also called contact language. Reference.com
