The Hawaiian vowels always have the same sound and every letter is pronounced. A = ah as in father
E = eh as in get
I = ee as in seen
O = oh as in go
U = oo as in soonSo you just have to sound words out. Kalaninuiahilapalapa
kah-lah-nee-noo-ee-ah-hee-lah-pah-lah-pahAnd practice until you can say it faster.
