The main sitelen pona glyph for ete (ete) is a location dot above a closed box, to avoid confusion with secular sewi which uses a turned open box instead. It was designed by nimi Elemenopi in July 2020.[5][6] An alternative glyph for ete (ete2) is derived from the main glyph for sewi, with a diagonal arrow from the nadir to a dot at the apex.
