Pure of girigiri, perhaps (and yes, I did see the edit in the quote...) Note the acronym of his last phrase.

Oh Braddah Ed - I never noticed what you did. Now you are kolohe buggah who deserves dirty lickiins. I need to call Mrs. Guava Sunrise so she can put you in your place. Like I said, I am the rude police. But see, Gregg, I wouldn't have caught that unless you pointed it out to me, so I must be pure of heart. (Paul is not allowed to comment on that).

Which, fo stretch da tale, is the happy go lucky way fo say, "I stay all plas'ted". Lucky you come Hawaii!

In Waipi'o, they say "I'm going to talk to the President."

The dictionary was written by Lee Tonouchi, Da Pidgin Guerilla. He is co-editor of "Hybolics" literary magazine, writer of da award-winning Pidgin short story collection, "Da Word", and author of da essay collection "Living Pidgin: Contemplations on Pidgiin Culture". I also believe I have read that he wrote his master's thesis in Pidgin. I do believe he is an edumacated man. Go look Da Kine Dictionary, page 82. It says sheesh is short for shi shi. I guess sometimes shi shi is too much effort to say so it gets shortened to sheesh. That word was entered into his dictionary by Joy Sakaguchi, Sacred Hearts grad 2001. I never like to be rude. Matter of fact, I am the rude police. Ask my daughters. They got busted plenny. My motto is "Help Stamp out Rude", therefore, I must set a fine example.

Well, then maybe I did not offend anyone if it is not a well known turn of the phrase. Whew. I guess I do not have to do pennance. I'm not Catholic, so I really don't know how to do them "Hail Marys".



I have nver heard "sheesh" used as short for "shi shi." But I am from Hilo. As a more modern Pidgin word used by Sacred Hearts students, it makes more sense. I think that school is kind of preppy, so girls would be unlikely to actually say "shi shi," but would use a "cute" form.

Personally, I would categorize the word as "slang, high school, female, upper-income," rather than true Pidgin. Though I did not write my thesis or dissertation in Pidgin, some of my articles on Pidgin were published some years ago, and I did lecture on the topic at Hilo's community college, and the community college on Kauai.

A side note: Our "code" in Hilo for that was to say in English, "5-4-4." When you say the numbers in Japanese, they are, "go shi shi."
