How do you say son in Hawaiian?

The Hawaiian word for son is keiki kāne.

Here's a breakdown:

* keiki means "child"

* kāne means "male"

So, keiki kāne literally translates to "male child".

It's also worth noting that "son" can sometimes be implied in Hawaiian, particularly when referring to a specific family member. For example, you might hear someone say "He's my keiki" (He's my child), and it's understood that they are referring to their son.
