1. How: This is the most common meaning, used to ask about someone's well-being or how something is going.
* Example: "Pehea ʻoe?" (How are you?)
2. What: It can also be used to inquire about something.
* Example: "Pehea kāu inoa?" (What is your name?)
3. In what way: It can also be used to ask for a description or explanation of something.
* Example: "Pehea ʻoe e hana ai?" (How do you do it?)
4. Condition: "Pehea" can also be used to describe someone's physical or emotional state.
* Example: "Pehea ʻo ia? ʻAʻole maikaʻi." (How is she? Not well.)
It's important to note that the context will usually make the meaning clear. For example, if you are asking someone how they are, it's pretty safe to assume you're using "pehea" in the sense of "how."
