'Ohana NOT O'Hana's!

[malcontent]

Pet peeve time.

This has been addressed numerous times on this board, so this may serve as a refresher.

It's "'Ohana" (without an apostrophe "s"), meaning "family," not "O'Hana" or "O'Hana's," which presumably to some people would be an Irish pub in Disney's Polyneasian Resort.

There. I said it. I feel better.

Did you not get your coffee this morning?

Who cares how people write it, we all know what the heck they are talking about

[cogero]

[PiperMickey]

The OP might want to consider a switch to decaf...

You take them to the library and they eat the books!

I've heard tea is a little calmer on the nerves than coffee. LOL...

I KNEW something like that was going to happen when I posted this!

I'll go back to my Nescafe now!

 

[Pumbaa_]

Do you feel better? good

Nescafe!?! You mean people drink this by choice. I thought it was just a cruel joke played on us in the parks.

Just kidding! The Nescafe at WDW is just their way of bringing you back to reality! But that's the subject of another post. (See http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2126192)

Whenever I respond to an 'Ohana post on the boards, I always throw in a gentle reminder at the beginning of a sentence, such as:

'Ohana (apostrophe at the beginning, no S on the end) is my favorite place to eat at WDW...

And while we're at it, it's Boma, not Boma's, and Jiko, not Jiko's, and Kona Cafe, not Kona's, and Raglan Road, not Ragland Road, and it's Walt Disney World (or just Disney World), not Disneyworld or Disneyland or Disney Land.

And no, I don't drink coffee at all, so that's not my problem.

 

[catne]

Well, if you really want an Irish pub, after you're done DINNING at O'HANA'S, go on over to RAGLAND Road and get you some beer.



And what really helps me ignore the spelling errors is adding a bit of Irish whiskey to that coffee

 

[natalielongstaff]

is it April fools day already

 

[pianoronni37]

Oof!

I have huge pet peeves about spelling errors (I have my BA in English with a minor in Professional Writing); however, I wouldn't come to a message board to explain the correct way to spell "'Ohana!" Hell, I'm sure half of the people here don't care how it's spelled, how it's pronounced or where the apostrophe goes... they just want to eat some delicious meat!!

That should be saved for grading papers and insulting coworkers! Not fellow Disney lovers!

Although I have to say... a LOT of people on these boards think that "dining" is "dinning." And that just ain't cool.
