Soon they began to argue about the correct way to pronounce the word “Hawaii.”
One student insisted that it’s Hawaii, with a “w” sound.
The other student said it was pronounced like “Havaii,” with a “v” sound.
Finally, they saw an old native on the beach, and asked him which was correct.
The old man said it’s “Havaii.”
The student who was right was very happy, and thanked the old man.
The old man said “you’re velcome.”
