ABOUT THE CLASS
The second step in Level Two is “CH2B” which is perfect for students who have been through CH2A a few times and are wanting to string together sentences into paragraph-length discourse, both written and spoken. CH2B students are also exposed further to traditional Hawaiian literature and audio recordings of Hawaiian language speakers. (CH2B is taught using Hawaiian as the language of instruction about 10% of the time.)
CH2B continues on from CH2A with attention paid to attaining knowledge in the following areas, among others:
- Further refinement of knowledge from CH1A through CH2A
- Short storytelling and narratives
- Pepeke Nonoʻa No/Na (something belongs to something)
- One more ʻawe type (ʻawe nonoʻa)
- Kuʻa joining particles for Pepeke Makua, Pepeke Keiki (e, i)
- Iʻoahenua in both ʻawe henua and ʻawe lauka
- Compressed and uncompressed possessives
- Talking about sequences of actions and things
- Times past and future
- Indeed, however, perhaps (nō, naʻe, paha)
- Māka Painu tense markers for storytelling and narratives
- Asking for something or a quantity of something using «i»
- Use of «hoʻo» to make transitive actions
- Using «poʻe», «wahi», and «nui» as kaʻi
REFUNDS & EXCHANGES
We prefer to keep things simple!
If you need to cancel your eight-week Session with us within the first two weeks of class, we will refund you 100% of the cost of the class. We can also defer your attendance until the following Session if you prefer.
If you wish to change to another level after the Session has begun, we are happy to do that at no charge! Just let us know, and we'll get you set up in the class that fits your needs best!
If you are further than two weeks into the Session and wish to drop or otherwise have an issue, please contact us, and we can evaluate on a case-by-case basis.
