Also, if there is something that goes along the lines of the following:

who cares?/don’t worry/everything always works itself out/just trust the universe/just chill

that would be cool too.

Thank you!

"Itz all gee braddah"

"no worries"

"no rain, no rainbows"

The "shaka" is more of an acknowledgment or a "thank you". The gesture is a loosened up "hang loose" thumb & pinky wiggle. The tourists are always seen attempting it with a very pointed and stiff extended thumb & pinky.

You'll find very very few people that speak or understand true Hawaiian but lots of pidgn. It's a very interesting poi-dog mix of several languages.

I think the word you're looking for is "shaka", and there's even a hand gesture that goes with it. It basically means "it's cool."

All I can think of is maika'i (Mai-kuh'-ee). It's usually used in response to "how are you?"



Pehea 'oe? (Pey-hey'-ah oy)

Maika'i



Oops, I almost forgot:

'a'ole pilikia (ah'o-ley pea-lee-key-uh/ah), which basically means 'no problem'. It's sort of like you're welcome.
