      idea: swap epiku and a, put misikeke petween ku and kijetesantakalu, move o to misikeke's old spot, and add apeja, pake, and yupekosi between misikeke and kijetesantakalu in that order.

      I couldn't help myself, and pulled Jan into the locker. His body collapsed on top of mine, like a Jenga tower with one too many bricks removed. I stared longingly into his eyes.
      "Gasp!" I gasped, not expecting him to return my gaze. There was a hunger in his eyes that I couldn't dare turn away from.
      "But Jan!" I cried confusedly, "your asexual!"
      But Jan just shook his head and laughed, and I could feel the vibrations in his chest as our bodies pressed closer together.
      "This is a erotic High School AU fanfic," he explained airily, "do you really think the author would care if they even knew that in the first place?"
      "Well," I mused, bitting my lip, "I do think you're first name is 'Jan', so maybe your onto something."
      And then we had sex.

    While you were talking about different ways to approach a project like this, another approach occurred to me: something more similar to pangrams like "the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" or "sphinx of black quartz judge my vow". Verses made of real Toki Pona sentences, such that each one describes a situation you could imagine in your head (even if it's a silly one), and together they happen to cover the whole vocabulary.
    I think I'll keep that in mind as a fun project idea for another day :)

    I've never heard of this language. The fact that it's so few words means it should simultaneously be very easy to learn and a challenge to translate, which I love. I've been struggling to push myself to learn another language for a while, and I love the idea of learning something so useless.
    Also I want to make a program to automatically translate between English and toki pona. Obviously it would be extremely limited, but it sounds like a fun challenge to try.

    All pokemon names are onomatopoeia. they are named after their sound, and they do not speak their name, because they do not speak. this is kinda why the pokerap works.
    Toki pona is 10% onomatopoeia, etymologically.
    nothing rhymes with kepeken.
    I often think about making a conlang that is 100% onomatopoeya. there are enough common onoms andmany of them work like a fable-adverb, BUT they vary a lot between languages for the same sound, and they are not just vowel shifts or repetition-variations of each other.
