{{Needs work|add images|section}}
Some speakers propose (or merely personally use) new spellings for existing words, e.g. for closer resemblance to their etymology.
===Pre-{{tp|pu}} reforms===
{{Main|Archaic words}}
A few words included in {{tp|[[Toki Pona: The Language of Good|pu]]}} underwent changes between their inception and the book being published, namely:
* {{tp|[[ona]]}} from {{tp|iki}}
* {{tp|[[nena]]}} from {{tp|kapa}}
* {{tp|[[noka]]}} from {{tp|jalan}}
{{tp|[[ali]]}} was an attempted reform too, but it only succeeded as a variant and not a community-wide replacement.
