well, this looks like a calque, i.e. you merely replace spanish words with tp words. but tp requires a total rethinking of thi idea and reformulating itpisku wrote: Mi pregunta era: Cuantas palabras crees que debería tener el toki pona?

Too many words.
The default context for affirmative sentence (especially in toki pona) is "in my opinion...", because it's me who's talking:
telo li pona = (I think that) water is good.
The same way the default context for a question is "what do you think/know, what is your opinion...", because by default I am asking you:
soweli waso li ike anu pona? = (What do you think:) bats are good or bad?
Therefore there is no need to use "crees que", "you think that" in questions. You can use less complicated:
"How many words should be in toki pona"?
But remembering discussion about meaning of '"should", we can also say:
"How many words you want in toki pona"?
