Where can i get practice writing TP?

Post by jan pali pi jan Jesu »

I have reached a point where i can understand most written TP (If i am somewhat familiar with the topic at least). But where can i get practice in TP conversation? The forums are great, but usually it takes a while to get a response.

If you know another tper to the extent of having their cell number, you can IM. But in gneral, there is, I think, at least one tp irc channel. I don't go and don't know how active it is, but that is the nearest thing to one-on-one or group tpactivity in relatively real time.

The IRC channel is often too quiet as people are either away or near the screen but not talkative until someone starts a conversation. Sometimes, though, you can chat there without waiting too long for someone to read it and reply. You can always try. Some beginners from very different places (like USA, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, India, South Korea) are appearing there lately, not always able to write proper Tokipona but sometimes they do quite well or learn quickly.

Another option can be to follow Tokipona users on Twitter and start writing the language there, for example.
