Here's a summary: one of the many things we like about Lisa Yee's Aloha Kanani book is that she includes Hawaiian words and how to pronounce them. One of the biggest tongue twisters is the name of a Hawaiian reef trigger fish: the humu­humu­nuku­nuku­āpuaʻa. (Get the book to learn more. You can also read this on Wikipedia .)
