The most common {{tp|[[sitelen pona]]}} |
The most common {{tp|[[sitelen pona]]}} glyph for {{tp|kiki}} ({{sp|kiki}}) is a closed, jagged starburst shape. Like the glyphs for {{tp|[[jaki]]}} and {{tp|[[ko]]}}, it can be drawn flexibly as any spiky, many-pointed-star-like shape. |
||
Other glyphs for {{tp|kiki}} variations include a pentagon ({{sps|kiki2|font="sitelen seli kiwen asuki"}}) or triangle ({{sps|kiki3|font="sitelen seli kiwen asuki"}}) with pinched corners, and two concentric triangles ({{sps|kiki4|font="sitelen seli kiwen asuki"}}), inspired by the glyphs for {{tp|[[sike]]}} and {{tp|[[leko]]}}. |
