kūkāla
Calls of the auctioneer.
kūkālā
(stand and call), the old Hawaiian word for proclamation, is now applied to the auctioneerʻs cries as he offers up his wares. Kīkēkē is to knock, while a tolling of the bell, a modern sound, has its specific Hawaiian equivalent, kanikē. The old conch shell (pū), which in early missionary days hung at chapel doors to summon the neighborhood to worship, is seldom heard now. ʻOlē means speaking through a horn or trumpet. What we call halloo is hoʻōho in Hawaiian. Kihe means to sneeze; nonō to snore (often confused by foreigners with noʻonoʻo, to meditate or consider). To scratch is neke; nau is the English word gnaw; to smack the lips, mūkī; to suck, omo; to swallow, moni. ʻOlāʻolā is gargling, or the gurgling sound of swallowing; hawewe is a rattling or clattering sound; kunu is to cough; mauliʻawa is to hiccup, but this is confused with heartburn.
