=== Numerals ===
 
: ''See the article [[Number systems]] for more information.''
 
There are four official numerals in [[Toki Pona: The Language of Good|{{tp|pu}}]], {{tp|ala}} (no; zero), {{tp|wan}} (one), {{tp|tu}} (two) and {{tp|mute}} (at least three). A more systematic number system is used by a big part of the Toki Pona community, in which {{tp|luka}} is redefined as five, {{tp|mute}} as twenty, and {{tp|ale}}/{{tp|ali}} as one hundred. Numerals are strung together and ordered from largest to smallest. For example, seven is {{tp|luka tu}}, and thirty six is {{tp|mute luka luka luka wan}}.
 
However, two more numerals are featured in [[Toki Pona Dictionary|{{tp|ku}}]], {{tp|san}} and {{tp|po}}, as {{tp|nimi ku pi suli ala}}. They mean three and four, and replace {{tp|tu wan}} and {{tp|tu tu}}, respectively. This document will use the numerals {{tp|ala}}, {{tp|wan}}, {{tp|tu}}, {{tp|san}}, {{tp|po}}, {{tp|luka}}, {{tp|mute}} and {{tp|ale}} throughout.
 
The reader is reminded that any number system is acceptable as long as it can be understood.
