{{Nonstandard}}
This is a list of nonstandard '''{{w|abbreviation}}s''' in Toki Pona.
=={{tp|kepeken}}==
{{tp|[[kepeken]]}} is tied with {{tp|[[sitelen]]}} as the longest {{tp|[[nimi pu]]}}. It has accrued many abbreviations, such as '''{{tp|kepen}}''' (listed in {{tok|[[ijo Linku]]}}) and '''{{tp|kpkn}}'''.
The 3-letter<ref group="note">That's over 50% off!</ref> abbreviations '''{{tp|kkn}}''', '''{{tp|kpk}}''' and '''{{tp|kpn}}''' cannot be mistaken for any other {{tp|[[nimi ku]]}} or word in Linku. '''{{tp|kep}}''' only overlaps with {{tp|okepuma}}, an obscure non-{{tp|[[ku]]}} {{tp|[[nimi sin]]}}.<ref group="note">As of July 2023. This can be confirmed with the regular expressions <code>/k\w*k\w*n/</code>, <code>/k\w*p\w*[kn]/</code>, and <code>/k\w*e\w*p/</code>.</ref>
Can we go further? While '''{{tp|kk}}''' conflicts with several {{tp|nimi ku}}, it is unique among {{tp|nimi pu}}, though probably extremely unclear. Every other 2-letter abbreviation is more ambiguous.

==Headnouns==
When referring to someone, their [[headnoun]] may be abbreviated as a single letter and attached to the name word without a space, e.g. {{tp|soweli Keju}} becoming {{tp|sKeju}}. Modifiers get their own letters, so {{tp|akesi wawa Lupon}} becomes {{tp|awLupon}}. was used at least as early as 2009.<ref>http://forums.tokipona.org/viewtopic.php?p=6065#p6065</ref>
