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

[drowsy gate]

Idk, I just posted a nimisin which was the contraction of a phrase and now there is a whole conversation inside of bad nimisin about if that was right or wrong

[woeful iris]

tǒkí - a tonal language

[warped junco]

sitelen suwi. mi la ni pona!

mi la, ni li "o lukin sama mi"

[light canyon]

that's a preverb

verbs can have modifiers, but objects (direct or indirect) are not modifiers

[light canyon]

it is wrong, that much is clear
i think every speaker at a level equal to or higher then intermediate who has joined this conversation has said that

[mystic moon]

lukin e: to apply sight/vision/eyes to. it can also mean "to stick googly eyes on"

dadb9c lukine

[light canyon]

the last part is a joke I'm pretty sure

[marsh moss]

no?

[light canyon]

I mean yes it can mean "to apply googly eyes to" but I don't think that's a particularly common use

[marsh moss]

trust me. my circle? we stick googly eyes on everything

[light canyon]

hmm fair

anyway lukin e can also mean "to look at" and I think the fact that that note doesn't mention it makes it clear that that note is meant to be a joke, since "to look at" is by far the most common use

“Okay, do we really need to go into this?”

I don't get it

[shut cargo]

“‘pi’ doesn’t mean ‘of’. It doesn’t! You can’t just put one word behind it. ‘pi’ introduces a head word, then you modify that head word, and then that whole thing goes on to modify the head of the current part of speech. And it can’t cross parts of speech either, you can’t put ‘e’ inside of ‘pi’! But listen, if you didn’t modify the head of a pi phrase, so you had like ‘ijo pi ijo’, it would literally be the same as if you didn’t use pi, except it would be correct, as in ‘ijo ijo’! And okay, this misconception comes from two places: Toki Pona: The Language of Good, where the definition of ‘pi’ is listed as ‘of’, and the whole point there is to be a teaching tool, it gets the idea across pretty well without being too wrong. But the OTHER place is that particularly skilled speakers will intentionally use ‘pi’ incorrectly, as in with just one word for laughs. So I understand the confusion, people reference ‘ilo pi nanpa’ all the time and newbies hear that among other things and go, ‘Oh, ok, pi with just one word! Got it!’ But grammatically, ‘pi’ doesn’t mean ‘of’– or else you could kinda say that every modifier works like ‘of’? And sure, you CAN do that. But like, that’s just silly.”
