thank you so much for actually putting your research into this! i feel like youtube videos on toki pona become a sore spot due to them often having very little effort put into them, and this is such a breath of fresh air. pona mute tawa sina a!
I like this video. It's detailed but not longwinded, the information is accurate, and it also showcases some Toki Pona culture! Not to mention the fact that it DOESN'T mislabel Toki Pona as an interlang! (cough cough Mitch cough cough Language Simp cough cough) I would've hoped for a Toki Pona showcase video that critiques it a bit (plenty claim that it'sthe easiest language. trust me, it's not.), but this video in particular isn't really focused on opinions, so I'll let it slide. Overall, this video showcasing Toki Pona is better than Langfocus's, but not as good as… making it the best video showcasing Toki Pona so far. Thank you for reading this comment, I'm jan Wetanka, and in the next episode, I'll be reviewing nothing.

luka pona signer here. i feel like i dont know enough about protactile to really embark on this yet. i would eventually like to do this in the next decade. more Deaf involvement and overall capacity building is also likely needed before we reach this point
Not yet. It hasn't come up much either (no one seems to work on a tactile sign language, while there've been 2 or 3 manual sign systems for toki pona (like what "signed exact english" is to english) before luka pona (a kind of separate sign language _for_ the toki pona _community_ ) so I don't think there'll be one for a while)
no offense but as a native Dutch speaker the way you said hagedis made me bust out laughing. I know our language sounds like someone choking but it`s not THAT bad

I like the idea of toki pona being anti-"mindless memorization." You have to understand the concepts you're talking about down to their basics.

It's orders of magnitude above HAI's video.

amazing video, as always! thank you for putting in the work to make an accurate and informative resource; I'm happy to have played a small part!
It got a sign language? Now you have my attention
Wonder if anyone’s made a deafblind accessible tactile version of it

Esperantists must be angry at Tokiponists
Actually, no. Esperantists heavily promoted it in Esperanto congresses, and a substantial number of Tokiponists also speak Esperanto.
Love the vid, but please work on your dutch pronounciation
mu a
Well, Toki Pona may be a "language of good", but Esperanto sure isn't.
Ps.: Esperanto is forbidden
Pps.: Don't ask why
