Hawaiʻian Diacrital Test Post

This post is just a test of Hawaiʻian diacritical marks to check rendering on different systems. Let me know if this displays properly on your computer…

A bit of the Kumulipo…

O ke au i kahuli wela ka honua
O ke au i kahuli lole ka lani
O ke au i kukaʻiaka ka la
E ho’omalamalama i ka la
O ke au i Makaliʻi ka po
O ka Walewale hoʻokumu honua ia
O ke kumu o ka lipo
O ke kumu o ka Po i po ai
O ka Lipolipo, o ka lipolipo
O ka lipo o ka La, o ka lipo o ka Po
Po wale ho-i

A bit of text clipped from the UH College of Hawaiian Language website…
