'''{{tp|isipin epiku}}''' is a humorous [[style of Toki Pona]] and quasi-[[tokiponido]] in which no [[nimi pu|{{tp|pu}} words]] may be used. It generally consists of {{tp|[[nimi sin]]}} that have already been attested in [[dictionaries]] such as {{ku|en}} and {{tok|[[Linku]]}}, although this is not a codified rule. However, making up new words for use in {{tp|isipin epiku}} is considered "cheating", as it goes against the spirit of the exercise.
The term was coined in 2022 by {{tok|[[jan Kita]]}},<ref>{{cite Discord|username=.hecko|server={{tp|ma pona pi toki pona}}|channel={{tok|sona-kulupu}}|thread={{tok|toki-pi-sona-kulupu}}|url=https://discord.com/channels/301377942062366741/912286596517220363/1025495025091620986|quote={{tok|toki pona}}? i only speak {{tok|isipin epiku}}|author={{tok|jan Kita}}|access-date=2024-01-16}}</ref> derived by replacing the words in "{{tp|[[toki]] [[pona]]}}" with their closest non-{{tp|[[pu]]}} equivalents, {{tp|[[isipin]]}} (here "thought") and {{tp|[[epiku]]}} ("epic").
