toki pona

Pona! I have a doubt. the word for nature (plants+animals+humans+rocks) could be ale?

sina wile ala wile lukin e ilo nanpa wan pi ma Lemi? ona li jo e toki ante lon toki pona.

Do you want to try a Lemmy client which has a toki pona translation for its user interface?

o lukin e ona!

Posting this here semi-exclusively (after putting it out on Soundcloud and shown to a few friends), "wide" release will be after video's done (that's been put on hold 4 months ago).

Not the best, said some things I wouldn't, broke grammar, but it's something.

Originally published on twitter between 2022-12-15 and 2023-07-25, it is an 11 part serial, each part fitting into a single tweet (280 characters at the time of writing). The main influence should be reasonably clear.

mi toki e toki mute! mi wile sona e toki sina a!

Just managed to push it out before midnight, now it's 0:04.

Audio-only and instrumental versions are available on my soundcloud, all under CC-BY.

~~technically there's also an a capella version, but that's privated~~

Video is "low effort", but still took almost 7 hours to make (starting with writing out the lyrics on paper, scanning the papers, editing and cutting up the images, yada-yada-yada, rendering the video, and finally running through ffmpeg again because I changed my mind on one thing and using an ffmpeg filter was faster then re-rendering).

I know of lipu Linku. However, it doesn't have the names for all the ma and toki (e.g. toki Inli, ma Mewika, etc.), and I do not know all the endonyms so that I can tokiponize as needed. Is there a site with those? I know Wiktionary has some, but only in an appendix and it's inconvenient to access.

jan ma li pilin ike tan ni: tenpo pimeja ale la jan telo li kama li pakala e kasi.
tenpo pimeja sin la jan ma li lon poka kasi. jan telo li kama li lukin ala e jan ma.
jan telo li pakala e kasi.
jan ma li pana utala e kiwen tawa jan telo.

mi mun la mi suno tawa mi li pana ala e kiwen tawa mi!

sina ken ala ken sitene? sina wile ala wile sitelen? sina ken li wile, la o sitelen e sitelen sewi suli pona!

Can you draw? Do you want to draw? If you can and want, then draw a new banner for this community!

The original banner was made in 5 minutes, 4 of which was looking for a font (which is Macondo). It was later changed by removing the icon from it. The colors used in the icon are

• yellow: #feff00
• blue/indigo: #5b00ff

If you agree, I kind of like the icon and would like to keep it for now, but the banner is just, for the lack of a better term, very very very bad.

Feel free to reach out, and any other suggestions/ideas are welcome in the comments.

Due to Reddit being jaki, I propose this community to serve as an open replacement. Currently there are no long-term plans and I have admittedly no experience with moderating/running a ~~subreddit~~ community, so help would we welcome.

Icon and banner art by me, font used in banner is Macondo.
