s. The name of the first little primer or spelling book printed in the Hawaiian language, January 7, 1822. The first sheet is said to have been pulled by Liholiho himself to his great satisfaction. Ianuari 7, 1822, ua paiia ka palapala Pi-a-pa Hawaii, on the 7th of January, 1822, was printed the Hawaiian Spelling Book. NOTE.—The word is formed like the English word alphabet from the names of the two first letters of the Greek alphabet; or more like our word A B C, meaning the first rudiments of letters. The missionary said to his pupil, b, a—ba; the Hawaiian would repeat, p, a—pa; hence the word and the name of the book.
