Esther T. Mookini

  • ... that linguist Esther T. Mookini translated many works of 19th-century Native Hawaiians including the 1838 Anatomia, the only medical textbook written in the Hawaiian language?

  • Interesting life and work, on excellent sources, no copyvio obvious. - The hook is fine, but how about "in Hawaiian" instead of "the Hawaiian language", - we wouldn't say "in the French language"? - I don't know if "native Hawaiians" (article) is better or "Native Hawaiians" (hook), but please be consistent. Consider combining super-short paragraphs, don't put more than three refs for one fact, and perhaps please me by more lead ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:57, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
