Translation problem

Post by vincedmg »

Hello everyone,

First of all thanks for this amazing community you've got, it's a pleasure to read this forum.

Few weeks ago I discovered a picture (see attached file) with toko pins glyphs. I'm here with 1 question about his translation.

For me it's mean kulupu sama (same group) but what's the real meaning ? Because on the picture they say (in French) that's mean having a mind of challenger. So may this glyphs have two meaning but I need confirmation please.

Thanks for all.

Regards,
Vincent DOMINGUES

toki!

Jes, the three circles can be read as "kulupu" and the two lines above as "sama", "kulupu sama" = "same group". The French text reveals that the author had no Toki Pona background whatsoever, though.
