Hawaiian is the word for things, people, and the language that belong to Hawaii — not the name of the place itself. As an adjective: Hawaiian food, Hawaiian music, a Hawaiian island.
Hawaiian是指 things, people, and the language that belong to Hawaii屬於夏威夷的東西、人和語言——not the name of the place itself不是地名本身。as an adjective當形容詞用時：Hawaiian food夏威夷食物、Hawaiian music夏威夷音樂、a Hawaiian island一座夏威夷島嶼。
As a noun, a Hawaiian is a person from Hawaii; some speakers use it more tightly for Native Hawaiians, the original Polynesian people of the islands, so it can be kinder to be precise when that distinction matters.
as a noun當名詞用時，a Hawaiian is a person from HawaiiHawaiian 指的是來自夏威夷的人；some speakers use it more tightly for Native Hawaiians有些人會把它用得更嚴格，專指 Native Hawaiians，the original Polynesian people of the islands也就是這些島嶼上原本的玻里尼西亞原住民，so it can be kinder to be precise when that distinction matters所以在這個區分很重要的時候，講清楚一點會比較體貼。
Hawaiian is also the name of the Polynesian language of the islands (the one with the little catch in Hawaiʻi). The state, the islands, the place you fly to: that is Hawaii. The “of that place” word is Hawaiian.

組成Hawaii + -an, the ending that means “of that place” (the same -an as in American).
