# juniko **Sitelen Pona** is a logographic writing system used to write the constructed language **Toki Pona**. Both the language and the script were created by Sonja Lang and are documented in her book, *Toki Pona: The Language of Good*. The section of the book describing the logography and used as a source for this proposal is made available to the public under the CC0 1.0 Universal public domain dedication (specified on page 3 of the German edition, *Toki Pona: Die Sprache des Guten*). The 2014 Toki Pona book includes 120 words in its dictionary and assigns each one a ideographs. In 2021, Sonja published *Toki Pona Dictionary*, which is a collection of common phrasings for English words collected from community surveys. The survey responses included a number of community-created words not included in the original book. 17 of these were found to be in common use and designated *nimi ku suli* (important words from *Toki Pona Dictionary*). They are generally accepted as part of the language. The community has created ideographs for all of them. This proposal includes a codepoint for each word in *Toki Pona: The Language of Good* and each *nimi ku suli*, as well as a few codepoints for words not meeting these criteria with glyphs in many existing fonts. The script has several features for formatting and combining glyphs. * Foreign names are written in the logography using a rebus-type system in a cartouche. Inside a cartouche, each glyph represents the first letter of the corresponding word. For example: ![](https://jan-ne.github.io/tp/ma_Kanata.png) The cartouche is encoded using the codepoints SITELEN PONA START OF CARTOUCHE, SITELEN PONA END OF CARTOUCHE, and SITELEN PONA COMBINING CARTOUCHE EXTENSION. START OF CARTOUCHE is analagous to an opening parenthesis and END OF CARTOUCHE is analagous to a closing parenthesis. COMBINING CARTOUCHE EXTENSION is a combining glyph that adds lines above and below the previous glyph, allowing the enclosed look that can be seen above. * The word "pi" can be written as a container, due to its function of grouping modifiers. For example: ![](https://i.imgur.com/Ex1rOx9.png) When written this way, the codepoint SITELEN PONA START OF LONG PI is used instead of SITELEN PONA IDEOGRAPH PI. This is rendered as the thin start of the pi ideograph. The remaining glyphs have SITELEN PONA COMBINING LONG PI EXTENSION placed afterwards to encode the underline extension. * Adjacent glyphs representing noun-adjective pairs may be combined into one glyph. ![](https://jan-ne.github.io/tp/combined_glyphs.png) This is normally accomplished using a ZWJ pair, which a font may render however it chooses. If more control is desired over the rendering of the combination, one of SITELEN PONA STACKING JOINER or SITELEN PONA SCALING JOINER may be used in place of a ZWJ. These correspond to the most common methods of joining glyphs: STACKING JOINER specifies that the second glyph should be stacked on top of the first glyph, and SCALING JOINER specifies that the second glyph should be scaled and placed inside the first glyph. Note that the way joined glyphs are rendered will depend on font support. Some fonts may not support joining glyphs at all. ## Sources https://jan-ne.github.io/tp/sp https://devurandom.xyz/tokipona/13.html ## Codepoint assignments ``` F1900 SITELEN PONA IDEOGRAPH A F1901
