'''Esperanto''', often [[tokiponize]]d as '''[[Language names|{{tp|toki Epelanto}}]]''',<ref>{{cite pu|122}}</ref> is an [[international auxiliary language]]{{aside|IAL}} constructed by {{w|L. L. Zamenhof}}.
 
[[Toki Pona]] overlaps with Esperanto and {{w|Esperanto culture|its culture}} in various respects. Many early Toki Pona enthusiasts were {{w|Esperantist}}s, and many words in Toki Pona are derived from Esperanto words. However, the languages drastically differ in design and [[philosophy]]. Unlike Esperanto, Toki Pona is not an IAL and is not as concerned with growth and, adoption, or recruitment.<ref name="roundtable 21">{{cite roundtable|page=21}}</ref>
 
Some features of Toki Pona are designed to be the opposite of those in Esperanto. For example, {{tok|[[jan Sonja]]}} found the {{w|Esperanto phonology|phonology of Esperanto}} "hard to pronounce" due to using many similar phonemes, and decided to give Toki Pona a minimal, crosslinguistically compatible [[phonology]].<ref name="roundtable 21" />
