[PAR] [TLE] Kanake [SEP] Kanake (also Kanacke or Kanaker) is a derogatory word used in German-speaking countries, especially Germany to mean "wop".  Originally common as "Kanakermann" among 19th century mariners to refer to comrades from the South Pacific (and later all of Southeast Asia), and carrying a connotation of praise for their seafaring abilities (see Polynesian navigation), it was in the 1960s transferred with more ambiguous connotations to Southern European immigrants, and is now usually used with an exclusively derogatory connotation against people of Turkish, Middle Eastern or Southeastern European ancestry. [PAR] [TLE] Polynesian navigation [SEP] Traditional Polynesian navigation was used for thousands of years to make long voyages across thousands of miles of the open Pacific Ocean.  Navigators travelled to small inhabited islands using wayfinding techniques and knowledge passed by oral tradition from master to apprentice, often in the form of song.  Generally each island maintained a guild of navigators who had very high status; in times of famine or difficulty they could trade for aid or evacuate people to neighboring islands.  As of 2014, these traditional navigation methods are still taught in the Polynesian outlier of Taumako Island in the Solomons.
