A hele ʻo ia mai ka poʻe Helene kahiko, ʻoiai e holo ana ma ka muliwai, ʻike ʻo ia i kahi holoholona i hoʻomanaʻo i waho i ka lio. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole maopopo ka hapa nui o kā mākou mau hoa i ke ʻano o ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana i ka lio me ka hippopotamus. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, he lokomaikaʻi ka mua, a he kaumaha loa ka lua. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻoiaʻiʻo kēia inā hoʻohālikelike mākou i nā holoholona ma ka ʻāina. Akā, ʻo ka hippo i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka wai e hōʻike ana i ke anaina wale nō nā maka, nā pepeiao a me nā puka ihu nui, kahi e lohe ʻia ai ka hū ʻana. ʻO ka hope, ma ke ala, ua like loa me ka lio. ʻIke ʻia, ua hoʻokumu ʻia kēia parallel. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka hippo i ka holo ʻana he wikiwiki loa. No laila, no ke aha he "hippo", he aha ka pili o ka huaʻōlelo "lio" me ia? ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo "hippopotamus" kahi hui o nā huaʻōlelo "hippos" a me "potamos". ʻO ka huaʻōlelo mua he "lio", a ʻo ka lua - "ka muliwai".
• No ka huaʻōlelo "behemoth", he mau aʻa Hebera kona. "Behema" literally translate as "monster", "beast". A ʻo kēia ka manawa e huli ai i ka moʻolelo moʻolelo Iudaio. Aia i loko o ia mea kekahi mea moʻokalaleo, e hōʻailona ana i ka pāʻani. Ua kapa ʻia ʻo "behema".

Ma ke ala, ʻo ia ka huaʻōlelo "behemoth" i maʻa iā mākou - ua lohe nā Slav no ka manawa mua ma kahi o ke kenekulia XNUMX.

Ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia holoholona kekahi o nā mea pohihihi loa o nā mea e kū nei. A ʻaʻole ma kona inoa wale nō ka manaʻo, akā i loko o kēlā mau maʻamau, ʻaʻole i aʻo maikaʻi ʻia ke ʻano o ke ola. E ʻōlelo koke kekahi ʻepekema ʻo ka lā ʻike liʻiliʻi o kēia manawa! Akā, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma ka liʻiliʻi loa ua noʻonoʻo mākou i ka pilikia o nā inoa.
