sitelen pona[edit | edit source]
The sitelen pona glyph for apeja () represents othering someone from a community and is derived by turning the glyph for kulupu and separating the bottom circle with an angle-shaped barrier, likely from the bottom stroke of ante.
The glyph was designed by Jakob Vogel in 2019, for a contest to design glyphs for words considered "extinct" at the time started by jan Same (James Flear).[6][7]

Proposal by James Flear (jan Same)
jan Same had previously proposed glyphs for apeja in October 2016. The original proposal was a broken heart, merging the shape of pilin with the zigzagging stroke through pakala. To avoid it being mistaken for a combined glyph, jan Same subsequently proposed four circles in a diamond configuration, with the lower circle crossed out, representing kulupu with another person singled out or shunned.[8]
