How do you spell relax in Hawaiian?

There isn't a single, perfect Hawaiian word that translates directly to "relax". However, there are a few options depending on the specific nuance you're looking for:

* Hoʻomaha: This is the most common word for "relax" or "rest" in Hawaiian. It can be used for both physical and mental relaxation.

* ʻoluʻolu: This word means "calm" or "peaceful" and can be used to describe a relaxed state of being.

* ʻoluʻolu ʻia: This is a more formal way of saying "relax" or "be at ease".

* ʻoluʻolu aʻe: This phrase translates to "more relaxed" or "more at ease".

* ʻoluʻolu wale: This phrase translates to "just relax" or "take it easy".

The best word to use depends on the specific context. For example, if you're telling someone to relax, you might use "hoʻomaha" or "ʻoluʻolu". If you're describing a relaxed atmosphere, you might use "ʻoluʻolu" or "ʻoluʻolu wale".
