Yeah, they even have a Christmas carol.

Yes, there aren't only English, Spanish, German, French... in the world.
I wonder why you ask this as if it's something surprising. Why wouldn't they have their own language? Surely, they are native to their land and they were not born with English or Spanish.

Yes. In fact we had a family picnic this summer with a Hawaiian theme and all of our name tags had our names in Hawaiian. Cool, hey?

ofcourse my dear. Their language is closely related to Polynesians and the pacific islanders. Since the Polynesians settled by boats there, it's closely their language, eventhough it evolved a little bit differently.

And their own religion. A Kahuna actually is a priest of their faith, not just some surfer.

You mean they haven't been speaking English since the beginning of time?

Didn't you realize that by asking this question you only reveal your own utter ignorance?
