{{Needs work|Include phontatics, fingerspelling, and update grammar for other speakers other than jan Olipija.}}

'''{{tp|luka pona}}''', also known as '''LPSL''' ('''{{tp|luka pona}} sign language'''), is a constructed sign language. It is a [[tokiponido]] created by {{tok|[[jan Olipija]]}}. It is a real sign language, including classifiers and [[w:nonmanual feature|nonmanual features]] (NMFs), unlike {{tp|[[toki pona luka]]}} which is a relex of toki pona into signs. In the {{ku|en}}, {{tok|[[jan Sonja]]}} advocates and recommends learning {{tp|luka pona}} instead of {{tp|toki pona luka}}.<ref>{{cite ku|11}}<blockquote>Signed Toki Pona ({{tp|toki pona luka}}) was presented as a game to battle {{w|Lojban|Lojbanists}}. A new and very pona project, {{tp|luka pona}}, has since been designed by {{tok|jan Olipija}} to be usable as a naturalistic sign language alongside Toki Pona. I recommend learning {{tp|luka pona}}.</blockquote></ref>
