The word some has no direct translation in Toki Pona. It can often be dropped:

tenpo la jan en ijo li lon ma 

tenpo la jan en ijo li lon ma.

For (some) time, (some)one and (some)thing were (some)where.

The idea of "some, but not necessarily all" can be communicated by negating ale ("all") with ala ("not").
