I think there is a big difference between a Hawaiian saying "listen" than a Westerner saying "shut up", yet we sometimes confuse the two and get defensive if somebody says "listen".
Listening is good. We learn from listening.
Shut up is mean. Nothing gained.
Understanding the difference could save us a lot of painful misunderstandings.
