*** Why Toki Pona? ***

Simple and Natural
Modern languages are cluttered with complex methods to express the simplest things.
What is a geologist but a person who studies the earth? Is there any useful difference between the words talk, speak, and say? Toki Pona breaks down all advanced ideas to their most basic elements. If you are hungry, you want eat. To teach is give knowledge.
This allows us to drastically reduce the vocabulary and grammatical structures needed to say what we have to say. Less is more.

Philosophy
A number of philosophies or principles have inspired me to create a language such as Toki Pona.
Toki Pona is semantically, lexically, and phonetically minimal. The simplest and fewest elements are used to create the maximum effect.
In many ways, Toki Pona resembles a pidgin. When people from different cultures need to communicate, they must focus on the concrete, simple things that are most universal to humanity.
Toki Pona follows the principles of Taoism, which advocates a simple, honest life and noninterference with the course of natural events.
I have also been inspired by primitivists such as John Zerzan, whose writings critique the totality of modern civilization, recognising the superiority of natural, primitive cultures.
Toki Pona can lead to an interesting game of semantic decomposition. Just as one can decompose a mathematical fraction such as 4/8 to 1/2, we can break down language to its most basic and tangible units of meaning and discover what things really mean.
According to reductionism, complex ideas and systems can be completely understood in terms of their simpler parts or components.
Since Toki Pona expresses things in their most natural and simple way, an inherent idea of goodness is transparent throughout the language. Health is good body. Happiness is feel good. Toki Pona itself means good language.
Above all, Toki Pona must be fun and cute. As everything seems to be oversimplified and ideas focus on the good, one could almost imagine a race of little cartoon creatures speaking in Toki Pona.

Cons
By being so general and vague, Toki Pona often lacks the ability to distinguish finer shades of meaning. For example, by lumping every possible bird species into one lexeme waso, we eliminate the need to learn hundreds of vocabulary items, however we are also left incapable of distinguishing between eagles and chickens. The closest translation might be an expression like waso wawa strong bird or waso nasa stupid bird.
Toki Pona has a rather narrow range of functions. Although it is very easy to communicate honest thoughts and everyday activities, it would be impossible to translate a chemical textbook or legal document in Toki Pona without significant losses. Such texts are products of the complex, artificial civilization we live in and are not suited for a cute, little language like Toki Pona.
Although the vocabulary and grammar are very simple, the language does contain a few basic syntax rules that are essential in keeping the sentence structure together. For instance, one must learn that the word li is used to separate the subject from the verb.

Etymology
The vocabulary was borrowed from other languages and adapted to the sounds of Toki Pona. The chief source languages are:
English
Tok Pisin
Finnish
Georgian
Dutch
Acadian French
Esperanto
Croatian
Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese)

Toki Pona li pona ala pona?
A review of the Toki Pona planned language
Damian Yerrick | 2002

[...]
It follows the "less is more" philosophy; its objectives include breaking down concepts into smaller parts, eliminating redundant synonyms, focusing on the good, and sounding cute. It is analytic yet oligosynthetic; it achieves a substantial amount of expressive power with fewer than 125 words and distinguishes only what need be distinguished in any given case.

From the designer:
no conculture, no history, TP is not fiction.
it's not an ial.
its more of a daoist language
it playfully soothes the mind
live in the present
its goals are:
-fun
-understand the universe around us
-live in present moment awareness
-simplify our life
As we shape our ideas to the structure of Toki Pona, it becomes a way of thinking.
a simple modest way of life
live happily

Toki Pona has 120 words (Score:2)

Is Spanish better than English? Does Japanese trump Swahili?

What about Toki Pona [tokipona.org]? It's a small spoken language with 120 words [tokipona.org] that don't inflect. Whether Toki Pona is small in a practical way [scheme.com] or small in an impractical way [muppetlabs.com] is still up in the air.

My favourite invented language is Toki Pona.
Only 150 words to learn, very soothing too.

What we seriously need is one common language that borrows terms and ideas from a variety of languages, which could (in theory) assist people in learning that language...

For basic communication, try Toki Pona [tokipona.org]. 120 words, no hard inflections to memorize; however, it doesn't work well for technical material.

Or take a step up and learn Esperanto [esperanto.net].

Toki Pona is a "maximally minimal" language. It was constructed with only 120 words and with only the simplest rules to pronounce sounds. Toki Pona tries to follow the Taoist philosophy that "simple is good." In order to lead a simple life, one needs a simple language; or perhaps a simple language will lead to a simpler life. Whether you accept the philosophy or not, Toki Pona is fun to speak.

Toki!

I agree with Pije, Lament and Martin. A language is a "living" sphere and
no one has the right to control language evolution like a big brother with
new-speak neurosis.

If there is any use for it: I downloaded - I think - the whole
Tokipona-Website. If you need or want to upload the material to another
domain, please mail me.
