parting. If someone says \u201cAloha\u201d to you, say it right back.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-it-rude-not-to-say-aloha-back\"><\/span>Is it rude not to say aloha back?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It would be disrespectful not to say &#34;aloha&#34; back and &#34;mahalo&#34; if it is appropriate to do so. The way to say &#34;aloha&#34; is also sometimes misused by people at lu&#39;aus (emcees, etc.)<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-a-good-response-to-aloha\"><\/span>What is a good response to aloha?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&#39;A&#39;ole pilikia\u2014you&#39;re welcome. That&#39;s reasonable, since that&#39;s how you use &#34;aloha,&#34; but the proper response is actually &#34;&#39;A&#39;ole pilikia,&#34; which means &#34;you&#39;re welcome.&#34; &#34;&#39;A&#39;ole pilikia&#34; is pronounced ah-oh-leh pee-lee-kee-yah.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-people-say-aloha\"><\/span>Do people say aloha?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Aloha is also commonly used along with other words, as a way of greeting people. For example, aloha kakahiaka means good morning, while aloha auinala is a greeting that is used to wish someone a good afternoon, and aloha ahiahi means good evening as a greeting in Hawaiian.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-proper-response-to-mahalo\"><\/span>What is the proper response to Mahalo?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>3. &#39;A&#39; ole palikir \u2013 You&#39;re welcome\/ No problem.
