Toki Pona Forums

Hello. I am jan Li (sorry for miswriting), and maybe I am one of those nasa people. I asked myself: "Does any a priori number exist?" I think it would be nice to have names for these two numbers, and I am explaining why. Seven: the maximum number a human can "visualize" is seven ...

If using Japanese Kanas, i purpose Katakana for tp words and Hiragana for proper adjectives. I also liked the idea of writing without spaces. In this case, one could use Hiragana for the first syllable and Katakana for the others. But then, what about proper adjectives? I really don't like the idea ...

During lessons, my classmate and I used to write rebus for each other. We wrote sentences following these rules: - no spaces; - omit non-starting vowels. For example: ILKTKPNALT.

Maybe it is for lack of English mastery, but I really can't understand your English sentence. ante la...

And maybe Hangul would be the best choice. Concerning Japanese i thought this. One could use Hiragana for the first syllable and Katakana for the next. The beginning of a sentence and the beginning of a proper adjective are marked by particular signs (e.g. a horizontal or vertical line throught the ...
