How to say from the big island in hawaiian?

There are a few ways to say "from the Big Island" in Hawaiian, depending on the context and level of formality:

Formal:

* Mai ka mokupuni nui o Hawaiʻi: This is the most literal translation, emphasizing that it's the "big island" of the state.

* Mai Hawaiʻi nei: This is a more concise way to say it, still formally.

Informal:

* Mai ka Big Island: This is a common way to say it in everyday conversation, incorporating the English term "Big Island."

* Mai Hawaiʻi: This is the most informal way to say it, simply using the name of the island.

You can also add "ʻo" before the island name for emphasis, like "ʻo Hawaiʻi" or "ʻo ka Big Island."

For example:
