Great video, bad thing conlanging doesn't get much attention as it needed, your video quality and retention are really great pretty much good stuff in the video in general
@@caraoke... The book's out, and it's free on Kindle unlimited. I'll set it to free for a while for the normal thing, ping on this comm when ur activ again. Kay.
As a toki pona speaker, I'd like to point out some issues with your use of toki pona, 1. You say that toki pona doesn't use punctuation. This is wrong, toki pona, when written uses punctuation all the time, just like english 2. You translated the sentence "I'm eating, grandma" as "mi moku mama", which is ungrammatical. Toki pona puts the particle 'o' after people who are being directly addressed, so it would be "mi moku, mama o" or more likely, "mama o, mi moku" 3. You say that a toki pona speaker would describe tea as something like "telo seli pi kule selo kasi suli" (hot liquid of the color of tree bark), which, unless they needed to be super specific they really wouldn't. Toki pona speakers will only say as much as needed, so in context, probably only "telo seli" (hot liquid), or even just "telo" (liquid). 4. You translated the sentence "help, electrical broadcast" as "pana pakala nasa". This doesn't make sense, 'pana' means give and 'pakala' means break or destroy. So this sounds more like, "giving, strange breakages" I would translate this sentence as "o pana e pona, wawa nasa li lon" Kawfu is so cool！I love the idea of glyphs evolving. The video was great overall, I loved the editing and basically everything about it. Please continue to learn toki pona, I recommend the video "toki pona in 18 minutes" by ilo Tani on youtube: th-cam.com/video/5phj5Ae80h8/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUXdG9raSBwb25hIGluIDE4IG1pbnV0ZXM%3D I'm excited for what's to come for Kawfu, Keep up the good work

thanks pal
If we make enough offshoots of a toki pona it can have its own language family
We sure could
The family is called tokiponidos
3:23 It's such a coincidence that I thought about my conlang spoken by crabs right before this part
is it tho
Can you write down the rules of kawfu somewhere publically? I'd LOVE to learn it.
