lei

lei
Noun
pl: leis

This term is deeply rooted in Hawaiian culture and carries a strong connotation of aloha, representing love, respect, and hospitality. While it is often associated with tourists and tropical vacations in a global context, in its native setting, it serves as a significant ceremonial object used for graduations, weddings, and welcoming guests.

Because the word is borrowed from Hawaiian, it follows standard English pluralization rules in common usage. It is a concrete noun referring to a physical object, and unlike some other loanwords, it does not possess an irregular plural form.
