toki pona "good language", a new language I'm learning.

toki pona "good language" is an artificial language created by Canadian translator Sonja Lang. It has a total of 123 words and is a very simplified language.

toki pona is an artificial language with a total of 123 words, it's quite fun and easy to use, I'm currently learning this language and trying to get better at it.

I want to learn the language of toki pona because I have been developing very poorly on the way to learn the language. I have spent a lot of time and money to learn English and Japanese, but I have not been able to learn it well.

One day, after deciding to give up the fight with English and Japanese completely, I saw a video of a wheat cube on Youtube. In this video, the creator used a special language to chat with the audience and found it interesting. After checking it, I found that it was an artificial language that I had a brief understanding of many years ago but did not study in depth. " Toki pona, meaning: "good language" is a philosophical art language known for its small vocabulary.

This time I spent some time looking for information on the Internet. After researching it, I found that I can learn this language if I can!

So in September 2020, I started my toki pona self-study journey.

In fact, I didn't study very seriously, because the number of people using toki pona in the world is too small. According to records, there were not many people using toki pona in the world at that time, about 5,000 people. It should be fun to learn.

Then why should I study?

Just a pleasure.

I kept encountering setbacks in the study of English and Japanese, but in the study of toki pona, I kept getting a good experience and a sense of achievement.

But I have a general understanding of the 123 words of toki pona and a few simple phrases. After about two months of study, I have been able to read the general meaning from the articles and messages of toki pona users.

This is a sense of achievement I have never had in learning English and Japanese.

But I temporarily interrupted toki pona study in the middle of 2021, I want to transfer the experience of learning toki pona to study Bahasa Indonesia to see if it can make my Bahasa Indonesia grow.

Sure enough, the experience of learning toki pona was transferred to learning Indonesian. However, there are too many words in Indonesian, and I fell into word hell and couldn't extricate myself.

After struggling with Indonesian words for a while, I decided to put the Indonesian aside and bring toki pona back to study.

Maybe my relationship with toki pona is stronger.
