LA
name of the eighth letter of the Hawaiian alphabet. It represents the sound of a liquid as in other languages; hence it is easily assimilated to such of the other liquids as are similarly pronounced, viz.: n and the smooth American r in foreign words. Thus, nanai for lanai; on the contrary lanahu is used for nanahu, &c. L is inserted sometimes, for the sake of euphony, between a verb and its passive termination ia; as, kaulia for kauia; manaolia for manaoia. The letter h is used in a similar manner. See H and Grammar § 48.
The name of the letter la instead of el is required by a law of the language, viz.: that every syllable must end with a vowel sound.
LA
a particle following verbs, mostly in some preterit tense, and generally connected with either mai, aku, iho or ae. Gram. § 239 and 240. It is also used with nouns and adverbs and seems to have a slight reference to place; similar, but not so marked or strong as the French la.
