Again?

Does anyone know how to say "again" in TP? Once they said it is "kin" in the IRC. How about "sin", "I will do it again, I will do it once more", or "pi nanpa **", "I will do it again, I will do it for the xth time"?

The official line backs 'sin'.

Uh, do you have a link to any jan Sonja canon using sin as "again"? I wouldn't be surprised if it is in fan corpus text, but I'm not finding any jan Sonja text. Maybe my google fu is failing me.

Do we have any context for the "again"? With concrete context, there might be several strategies.

tenpo suno pini la mi unpa. tenpo suno kama la mi unpa.

tenpo suno pini la mi unpa. tenpo suno kama la mi unpa kin.

tenpo suno pini la mi unpa. tenpo kama la sin la mi unpa.

Jesus, making promises
sina pilin e ni: mi moli. taso mi kama tan ma. I'll come again.

Jesus, back.
tenpo pini la mi moli. taso tenpo ni la mi moli ala li poka sina. I've come again.

Terminator: I'll be back (again).
mi tawa tenpo kama. taso tenpo lili la mi tawa tenpo pini.

Word page on the wiki: once again, once more.
