Actions

From sona pona, the Toki Pona wiki
(Redirected from action)

Actions are generally stated directly as verbs in Toki Pona, even in some cases that would be strange in English:

mi ni 

mi ni.

I do this.

o ijo 

o ijo.

Do something.

Historically and in pu, the verb "to do" was translated as pali, but it since become popular to use pali more selectively for certain kinds of work or creation.

A related concept is "to happen", which is sometimes translated with kama or lon.
