Eupoo ino

One of Juliette's favorite Tahitian words to describe Tama is "upoo ino" which means "crazy". She usually says it while turning a finger toward her head...and it's always met by a big smile from Tama. He is constantly teasing her.
As I am trying to learn the language and the territory, Tama is constantly playing on my gullibility. But I think he's met his match in Juliette. So it's nice to have her loudly proclaiming, "Upoo ino!" It assures me that I'm not upoo ino.
