Very useful, mahalo! One suggestion, the biggest body part that is missing, our skin. Regarding face, forehead, cheek, throat are missing.

Aloha a me mahalo! About the words for face, which one of the three is the most common?

[@KeAlohaNoHawaii]

They really all are used. I found another children’s song that used “ke alo”. A few notes on other uses: -Maka: this can also be used when indicating facial expression. I’ve also seen it used in the context of “She’s the face of ...” -Helehelena: I’ve seen this used when talking about one’s features. For examples I saw it used in an article talking about what style haircut to get based on the shape of your face/features. -Alo: this can be used for the face of a person or in general the face/surface of an object. As I mentioned in the video it is also used in phrases “face to face”
