Aloha, Washington Aloha, Washington Aloha is an unincorporated community in Grays Harbor County, in the U.S. state of Washington. It is located two miles east of the Pacific Ocean at Beaver Creek in west central Grays Harbor County. The community was named after the Hawaiian-language word "aloha". The name may have been inspired by the song "Aloha ʻOe". Aloha was once home to Aloha Mill & Lumber Company. It was founded by R. D. Emerson and W. H. Dole in 1905. The name, a Hawaiian greeting, was chosen by members of the Dole family, who were landowners and business people in Hawaii.
Mabuhay Mabuhay Mabuhay is a Filipino greeting, usually expressed as "Mabuhay!", in the imperative form of "life", thus, "Live!", from the root word "buhay" (life). The phrase carries various meanings including "long live", "may you live", "cheers", "welcome", and "hurrah". It is thus analogous to Aloha, Talofa and Kia Ora in fellow Austronesian languages, Hawaiian, Samoan and Māori; the Romance language expression “Vive, Viva”, the Hindustani suffix "Zindabad", and the Japanese exclamation "Banzai". The expression is mostly used for toasts during gatherings and parties, and is used as a cry of adulation towards individuals or concepts at rallies and political conferences.
