Reviewer 2 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsI find this paper very interesting. From a formal point of view, words in Ōlelo Hawaiʻi are sometimes highlighted using quotation marks (" "), while sometimes they are just written in plain text. For a non-Ōlelo Hawaiʻi speaker, I would suggest highlighting them consistently, unless guidelines state otherwise. Furthermore, all the links to web pages are not working: I don't know if this was done on purpose for the blind peer review, or if it is something that needs to be fixed.
Finally, but this is just a personal consideration, it would be interesting to know how the 9 new terms in Table 2 have been accepted by native speakers. If the author(s) already have these data, I would consider adding a paragraph; otherwise, I would suggest that the author(s) conduct such research in the future, as it would provide important information on the reliability of the process used to create these new words.

Minor editing is needed to address some verb agreement issues or other details, but nothing significant here.
