this is a rigged poll its jan misali ofc they vote for the toki pona one
Mute wins bc four is kinda boring but still my point stands
we here in american dropped the u like we dropped the uk and civil rights
serious question
why learn a fake language instead of just learning a real language
ease of learning, fun,
what is a āfakeā language
Iāve heard it as a concept for the military where they try to assess what you need to improve in the process of language learning. They test your ability to see patterns by giving you a fake language and some made-up words from that language.
i dont think may and jake are in the military
a language that isnāt the primary language of any country
a āuselessā language
wheras if you instead put that effort toward learning like
spanish
you can use it if you ever visit mexico
the process of learning a fake language and a real one canāt be that different that toki pona is āfunā to learn where an actual useful language is āunfunā
possible iām just a boomer who will never understand why the kids want to make bill cosby noises and call it a language
Thatās what they lead you to believe.
Clearly
toki ponaās structure is completely different to any natural language, so honestly, yeah, it is very different to learning a language that naturally coalesced
itās also easier because toki pona is essentially designed to be the least complicated language that is still a coherent language capable of expressing most concepts, and it does this through various vocabulary and grammar tricks that are really cool
