The two beginning ESL students went to Honolulu on holiday. Soon they began to argue about the correct way to pronounce the word "Hawaii." One student insisted that it's Hawaii, with a "w" sound. The other student said it was pronounced like "Havaii," with a "v" sound.
两名学习非母语英语课程的新生到夏威夷度假，没一会儿，他们就开始争论“Hawaii”的正确发音。一个学生坚持认为是“Hawaii”，发“w”音;另一个学生认为是“Havaii”，发“v”音。
Finally, they saw an old native on the beach, and asked him which was correct. The old man said it's "Havaii." The student who was right was very happy, and thanked the old man.
最后，他们问在沙滩上的一个年长的当地人谁的发音是正确的。老人说，是“Havaii”。说对了的学生非常开心，再三向老人道谢。
The old man said "you're velcome."老人说，“不客嘻(气)。”
