What is the Hawaiian word for colorful?

There isn't one single Hawaiian word that perfectly translates to "colorful" in the way we use it in English. However, depending on the context, several options could be used:

* ʻAnoʻano: This word refers to "variety" or "diversity," and can be used to describe something with many colors.

* Nani: This word means "beautiful," and can be used to describe something that is visually pleasing, including its colors.

* 'Akala: This word refers to "bright" or "vivid," and can be used to describe colors that are intense and eye-catching.

* Puka: This word can refer to "hole" or "opening" and could be used in a descriptive way, like "the shirt has colorful puka (holes) in it."

Ultimately, the best word to use would depend on the specific context and the desired nuance.
