Toki Pona is a minimalist conlang famous for having a vocabulary of under 130 words. There are communities of speakers on all major social media platforms. This is an introduction thread for speakers, learners or the toki-curious to introduce themselves. I'll advise on learning resources, or just answer general questions if anyone is interested.
I'm a toki pona speaker and creator of the YouTube channel 'seme li sin?' which translated news stories into toki pona.
