The word "haole" does not come from hā and ʻole. The word haole simply referred to a foreign or unsual trait or language and can be found in moʻolelo and the Kumulipo--- long before Captain Cook. It was not a racial word until white people themselves made it so in the 1850s. https://t.co/WQ6GrQbEny
