释义 ʻokina
noun[ C ]
(alsookina)uk /ɒˈkiː.nə/ us /oʊˈkiː.nə/pluralʻokina
the character (ʻ), used in Hawaiian to write a glottal stop(= a speech sound produced by closing the vocal cords and then opening them quickly so that the air from the lungs is released with force):
There are only twelve letters in the Hawaiʻian alphabet, plus the ʻokina which is considered a consonant.
The ʻokina is a glottal stop, similar to the sound between the syllables of "oh-oh".
The ʻokina looks like a little six, not an apostrophe.
This guide to Hawaiʻian punctuation is comprehensive and even ʻokina are in the right direction.
Many people who want to write the okina do not have access to the appropriate fonts.
