Why is it "l'île Hawaii" when yvonne wanted to know about Hawaii? Besides -- isn't Hawaii made up of many islands?
Answered by SraJMcGin
True = it's l'île Hawaii OR les îles Hawaii, depending upon whether you are speaking of the ONE island, Hawaii, or the group of islands, Hawaii being one of them.

I don't think i can read the accents, it comes out as funny symbols.
Answered by SraJMcGin
P.S. As for the state of Hawaii, you will see "Hawaï" (Je vais à Hawaï.)

As for accents, we can send you the chart if you let us know if you have MAC (easy) or PC (more difficult), Windows or not.
