these are not hawaiian concepts. any words i could give you would be hawaiianized words, that is modern words.

these concepts did not exist before contact.

the word for grandmother is tutu.
there were none if any alive that ever reached the age of great tutu.
the life expectancy of native hawaiian poeple on the average was 45 years old.

keeping it real, as always

punohu
aloha
