bad nimisin [:nimisin: jama - kama e jan Jami kepeken wawa pi ante nimi sama jan Kita]

[keen dirge]

ala is totally not la guys……………………………………

its competely differnet………

[chrome flame]

ala la ala li la

[light canyon]

who ghost pinged

[light canyon]

the first ala and la cancel eachother out

same thing with the "ala" and "la" in "ala li la"
therefore, the sentences simplifies to "li"

[chrome flame]

however, because li modifies nothing, it can be assumed that it's modifying ala, literally nothing, meaning the sentence is "ala li ala", which is the opposite of expected.

that was intentional lol

lonsi
from Proto-Tokiponic *lausi, likely influenced by Proto-Tokiponic *tausi (hence; "tonsi") meaning "middle". unrelated to monsi, which comes from proto-tokiponic *maun lia, equivalent to toki pona "mun la," as worship by the ancient Tokiponic peoples was typically conducted opposite the direction of the moon
(reconstructed, dated) uncertain. may mean one or many of the following:

• repetition
• totality
• all
• unity

.n brainrot

[mystic moon]

Brainrot is a slang word used to describe mental decline from consuming "low quality" content. It has ableist connotations, such as maintaining stereotypes about the causes of mental illness, so it's better to avoid it. Using "brainrot" to describe modern slang terms like "rizz" and "gyatt" is also problematic in another way, as those words derive from African American Vernacular English.

When discussing language, it's best to analyze how it came about and what it implies. Be kind and compassionate when discussing modern day slang!

Joso

Adjective: Microscopic, Invisible
Noun: Microscopic Object, e.g. Microorganism, Bacteria, Virus, Atom etc.

Reffers to anything so small it is invisible or barely visible to the naked eye. May include a microorganism, but also anything else at that scale. For example, nanotechnology can be ilo joso. Similar to lili. Can be extended to something highly uninportant.

From Greek ιός meaning virus and historically poison.

(just use lili, this is utterly useless)

[modest river]

this is good

[gleaming ravine]

this can be easily described
“ona li lili mute la jan li ken ala lukin e ona/ken lukin e ona kepeken ilo nasa taso”

[light canyon]

its a bad nimisin but not in the way we've come to see one
this word is literally bad as in it is not useful because it's entire semantic space is inside that of another word
its not bad in the"funny joke" sort of sense

[night vault]

ιός /iˈos/ → ijos → ijo
🤯

[modern creek]

It was supposed to be a good nimisin for “microorganism”, but that was way too specific. So I expanded its meaning, but then I realized this is entirely describable with lili mute/…ken ala lukin… So it goes in bad nimisin.
