Re: The pooh of pu

Has jan Sonja ever followed up with the community on pu? It seems as though she's kind of left the whole thing at this point. But I don't follow her too closely, so I shouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions.

Re: Animorphs #1 - The Invasion

he point is that 'lon tomo sona sina' modifies 'kulupu pi musi sike' and, by a general rule, a unit (as a prepositional phrase is by definition) of more than one word (again a PP obviously has to be) as a modifier has to be set off by 'pi'. See several other cases earlier. I understand the previous...

Re: Animorphs #1 - The Invasion

Thanks for the corrections and suggestions! comma, if at all, after 'la' I was following pu on this one. jan Sonja puts the comma in a different position than what feels natural. I'm not sure what the rest of the community thinks of this. not sure what to make of 'li ...' There are a lot of ungramma...

Re: toki! mi pini kama sona e toki pona lon tenpo pi pini lili.

jan Pinsen o, kama pona! My Toki Pona name is also a bit different than my real name. I was watching a YouTube video and someone gave themself a name that I would've chosen for myself. They aren't active in the TP community, but seeing as there are so few TP users, I wanted to remain unique. Besides...

Re: "kulupu pi ante nimi" is now recruiting!

I've added you :) I have the group set to private to stop people that aren't translating from reading any translated parts of the book before it's finished. I hope you don't mind this too much. :) Hmm...I can't seem to access it. There are two underscores in my username. Considering the tiny popula...

Re: "kulupu pi ante nimi" is now recruiting!

Why do you have it set as private? Surely you'd want as many people to help as possible?

Re: mi sona ala

After reading Pu last summer, I made a document with the new official dictionary and some observations about POS and syntax that I inferred from reading the texts. There is also a short list that highlights the differences between Pu Toki Pona and what I've dubbed Vernacular Toki Pona (i.e. Toki Po...

Animorphs #1 - The Invasion

Now that the forums are back up, I have a perfect spot for me to place my ongoing work in translating a fairly short book from a kid's series that is very dear to my heart. The translation is quite loose and I have difficulty in making everything comprehensible at all times. This is really just some...
