Kākau i ke kumu: he aha ka ʻōlelo maikaʻi e lawe ai?
I kēia mau lā, ʻo ke kamaʻilio ʻana me ke kumu a i ʻole ka polopeka ma o ka leka uila ke ala maʻalahi. Eia nō naʻe, ʻoiai inā he pōmaikaʻi nui kēia maʻalahi, ʻike mākou i nā pilikia i kekahi manawa i ka wā e kākau ai i kēia leka uila. ʻO kekahi o lākou he mea kānalua ʻole ka aloha e hookama. Inā like me nā mea ʻē aʻe, ke manaʻo nei ʻoe i kēia pilikia, no ʻoe kēia ʻatikala.
ʻO kahi hoʻomanaʻo kumu pōkole ke kamaʻilio me ke kumu
Ke kamaʻilio ʻana i kahi leka uila i kahi polopeka a i ʻole kumu, he mea nui e ʻike maʻalahi ma o kāu leka uila. Pono e hoʻokomo pololei i kou inoa hope i loko o ka pahu leka o kāu mea kākau, ma kēia hihia ke kumu a i ʻole ke kumu.
Eia kekahi, pono e wehewehe pono ʻia ke kumuhana o ka leka uila, i mea e pale ai i kāu mea kākau mai ka hoʻopau manawa e ʻimi ai.
He aha ka nohona kuʻuna no ke kumu a i ʻole ke kumu?
ʻO ka maʻamau ma ka Palani, hoʻohana mākou i ka civility "Madame" a i ʻole "Monsieur" me ka ʻole o ka inoa hope. Eia nō naʻe, pili ia i ka pili a i ʻole ke kūlana o kāu pilina me kāu mea kākau.
Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe ka launa pū ʻana me ka mea i loaʻa i ka leka uila, hiki iā ʻoe ke koho i ka huaʻōlelo polite "Dear Sir" a i ʻole "Dear Madam".
Eia kekahi, hiki iā ʻoe ke hahai i ka civility o kahi poʻo inoa. Ma muli o kāu mea kākau he polopeka, he alakaʻi a he rector paha, hiki ke ʻōlelo ʻia "Mr. Professor", "Mr. Director" a i ʻole "Mr. Rector".
Inā he wahine, ʻae ʻia e hoʻohana i ka "Madam Professor", "Madam Director" a i ʻole "Madam Rector".
Eia naʻe, e makaʻala ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻopaʻa inoa iā Mr. a i ʻole Mrs., e hele ana ma ka pōkole, ʻo ia hoʻi ma ka hoʻohana ʻana iā Mr. Manaʻo hewa ka poʻe e kū nei lākou i kahi pōkole o "Mister". Akā, he pōkole ia o ka ʻōlelo Pelekane.
ʻO ka mahalo hope loa no kahi leka uila ʻoihana i kuhikuhi ʻia i ke kumu
No nā leka uila ʻoihana, hiki i ka huaʻōlelo polite hope ke lilo i adverb e like me "Hoʻohanohano" a i ʻole "Hoʻohanohano". Hiki nō hoʻi iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i nā ʻōlelo polite "Best regards" a i ʻole "Best regards". Hiki nō hoʻi ke hoʻohana i kēia ʻano hoʻohālikelike i hui ʻia e kekahi i nā leka ʻoihana: "E ʻoluʻolu, e ke Kumu, koʻu aloha maikaʻi loa".
Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, no ke kumu a i ʻole ka polopeka, he mea ʻino loa ke hoʻohana ʻana i ka huaʻōlelo polite "Sincerely" a i ʻole "Sincerely". E pili ana i ka pūlima, e makaʻala e hoʻohana mākou i ka inoa mua a me ka inoa hope.
Eia kekahi, no ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka hōʻaiʻē hou aku i kāu leka uila, e loaʻa iā ʻoe ka nui ma ka mahalo i ka syntax a me ka grammar. Pono e pale ʻia nā minoʻaka a me nā pōkole. Ma hope o ka hoʻouna ʻana i ka leka uila, inā ʻaʻohe āu pane ma hope o hoʻokahi pule, hiki iā ʻoe ke hahai me ke kumu.
