Hawaiian word for “smart”, commonly used by locals who speak Pidgin, an English creole language native to Hawaii.
Example of “akamai” being used in Pidgin:
John: Ho, you tink you so akamai? (Oh, you think you’re so smart?)
Kimo: No brah, you da one being lolo! (No dude, you’re the one being stupid!)
I don’t really know how to give you an example of “akamai” in the Hawaiian language (not Pidgin) because literally no one speaks Hawaiian anymore. Our knowledge of Hawaiian is limited to three basic phrases and the numbers 1-4. King Kamehameha is not proud. 2/10
