Far from it, you have been MOST helpful, thanks.
Fred, I’m glad it was helpful. You post some of the most interesting and insightful information on the Eligibility threads, and I have learned so much from reading your comments. I just wanted to clarify that it was not me, but the Hawaiian native who added that, ‘I hope I haven’t lost you’ comment. I think she thought she was going into too much pronunciation detail, fwiw.
The really interesting thing is the question on top of the p. I cited. The OP starts with the assumption—no doubt gleaned from Obama’s Ayers-written piece of propaganda—that ‘tutu’ is Hawaiian for ‘grandmother’. The responders/native speakers have to correct that bit of misinformation.
Sound familiar? Every time Obama puts out a so-called fact, it has to be corrected. He is a sick man, but we’ll get to the bottom of it all eventually.
