I always thought "Lua" meant "second".

Hmmm... guess I've been calling my younger brother (the second of three of us) the wrong thing all these years...

I just looked it up in my dictionary:

Lua - n. a hole, a second, an equal, a companion

Lua - adj. two, second

Lua - n. the art of breaking the bones of a person

and right after those are:

Luahine - n. an old woman
Lua'i - v. to vomit
Luakaha - v. to have dwelt long in a place
Luakini - n.an ancient temple
Lualua - adj. rough , uneven
Lu'alu'a - adj. limber, flexible, flimsy
Luana - v. to live in idleness
Luaole - adj.matchless, best
Luapele - n. a volcano
Luau - n. the leaf of the taro, a feast
Luau'i - n. a parent
Luawai - n. a well, cistern
