When you visit Hawaii, you may come across this gigantic word that starts with H and has a bazillion letters. That’s the word humuhumunukunukuapua’a and it’s Hawaii’s state fish. The humuhumunukunukuapua’a is a tropical reef trigger fish that you’ll likely see when you snorkel in Hawaii.
I used to think that I’d never be able to pronounce humuhumunukunukuapua’a, but it’s actually quite easy after you sound it out a time or two. Here’s how to pronounce it: “who-moo-who-moo-noo-koo-noo-koo-ah-pooah-ah” Easy, peasy, right? Okay, just in case it’s not slipping off your tongue, check out this link to a YouTube of Don Ho singingMy Little Grass Shack. At about 1:10 into the video, you hear Don Ho singing humuhumunukunukuapua’a a few times. Sing along and you’ll soon be a pro.
The name of Hawaii’s state fish sure is a mouthful to pronounce as it is 21 letters long. This fish is the humuhumunukunukuapuaa. Here are some interesting tidbits about the humuhumunukunukuapuaa:
The name is pronounced “who moo who moo new coo new coo ah poo ah ah”
The name means “trigger fish with a snout like a pig.“
It was chosen as Hawaii’s state fish in 1984 by a public survey. School children were instrumental in campaigning for the humuhumunukunukuapuaa. When the humuhumunukunukuapuaa was first selected as the state fish, lawmakers only made this designation official for five years. So, for a period of over a decade, the humuhumunukunukuapuaa lost its reign as the state fish, but in 2006 the fish was signed back into its “oFISHal” state title.
It is not unique to Hawaii, but it is endemic to the waters around the central and south Pacific islands.
It is not a fish people commonly eat.
Oh, and one more exceptionally interesting fact about the humuhumunukunukuapuaa – apparently they can talk. Don’t believe me? Well, here’s my proof with this great educational video on Hawaii reef etiquette that is “narrated” by a humuhumunukunukuapuaa:
