So the site you cite is correct as far as Hebrew and "crown" is concerned. I wasn't looking closely enough, just checking my biblical and my modern Hebrew dictionary ("Klil" seems to be a medieval term for "crown", not found in the Bible nor in modern Hebrew). I could not find any connection to "laurel", but to lillies. So you see: even people who know a language do make mistakes.

This board is for discussion. Whoever makes an assertion must tell his sources. The reliabilty of sources must be discussed. The site you quote does not seem to be very reliable in each case, as Lumia and I demonstrated. This does not mean that everything should be doubted. But you have to be careful. The combination of Hebrew and Hawaiian meanings should make you prick up your ears in any case.
