New Feature - Hawaiian word of the day

Well, I've decided I need to motivate myself to get learning Hawaiian. So, I'm going to try to come up with a Hawaiian word each day because in teaching, you often learn the most.

Today's word:
waiwai - assets, wealth, rich, value

Waiwai means rich. "Rich" can be applied to financial or material matters, but I choose to say that I am waiwai because I am well loved and have a good life.

Waiwai 'au. I am rich.

And this one's for DH and all of the MBA students - Moʻokūlana waiwai = Balance sheet
