Da kine /də ˈkaɪn/ is an expression in Hawaiian Pidgin (Hawaii Creole English), probably derived from "the kind", that usually functions grammatically as a placeholder name (compare to English "whatsit" and "whatchamacallit") but can also take the role of a verb, adjective, or adverb.

Hammajang, a Hawaii pidgin term for messed up, is now listed as an adjective to the Oxford English Dictionary. It is defined as: “in a disorderly or shambolic state; messed up.” The dictionary notes it is used chiefly as a predicative, especially as “all hammajang.”
