| Wikipedic | In the Hawaiian language and in Hawaiian Pidgin, a hapa is an individual of mixed racial or ethnic heritage, especially someone of partial Native Hawaiian ancestry who is born in Hawai'i. Used without qualification, it is often taken to mean "part Hawaiian and part white." The term is used descriptively, and few Hawaiians today consider it an offensive slur. (references) | ||
