Tita
/TEE-tah/
A tough local girl. Not someone you want to mess with.
A tita is a local woman who can hold her own. She's tough, direct, takes no lip. Not an insult — more like a badge. A tita will help you change a tire and then cuss you out for not knowing how.
Examples
- Watch out, she one tita.
- Da tita wen back up her sista.
- All the titas was at the lūʻau.
