pilikia

Local Word of the Day

is “pilikia.” Pilikia means trouble. If you ever wondered what to say after someone tells you, “Mahalo.” You probably know what to say, just that it was in English: “A’ole pilikia.” Das Right! “No Problem.” Just a Thought: Locals like to tell you it’s no problem even when it might be, so bake them some cookies or treat them to a plate lunch or give them a hug. Hawaii is an island, so we share all our pilikia.
