===Historical use===
The function of the particle {{tp|en}} has changed throughout the development of Toki Pona. [[Sonja Lang]] first defined it as such in a forum post from 2002, in the section called "Early Toki Pona":<ref name="lang2002">[[Sonja{{cite Langweb|Lang, Sonja]] (27 October 2002). [url=http://forums.tokipona.org/viewtopic.php?t=81 |title=The words "en", "kin", and "kan"]. ''|website=Toki Pona Forums''. Retrieved|author=Sonja Lang|date=2002-10 October -27|access-date=2023.-10-10}}</ref>

In the original documentation, {{tp|en}} is used both to separate modifiers and to seperate the nouns of a subject. This use was also documented in the original toki pona lessons by {{tok|[[jan Pije]]}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://bknight0.myweb.uga.edu/toki/about/lesson/tp5.html|title=Lesson 5|website={{tok|[[lipu pi jan Sonja]]Pije}}.|author=Sonja [Lang|archived-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090821024459/http://bknight0.myweb.uga.edu/toki/about/lesson/tp5.html Lesson 5]. Archived from the original in 21 August |archive-date=2009. ''{{tp-08-21|lipu pi jan Pijeaccess-date=2023-10-10}}''. Retrieved 10 October 2022.</ref>
