A Vocabulary Of Words In The Hawaiian Language is a book written by Lorrin Andrews in 1836. The book is a comprehensive list of words in the Hawaiian language, along with their English translations. The book was written during a time when the Hawaiian language was rapidly being replaced by English, and Andrews sought to preserve the language by documenting its vocabulary. The book includes words for common objects, animals, and plants, as well as words for more abstract concepts such as emotions and weather patterns. The book is considered an important resource for those studying the Hawaiian language and its history. Andrews was a Christian missionary who arrived in Hawaii in 1828 and spent the rest of his life working to promote the language and culture of the Hawaiian people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
