'''{{tp|luka pona}}''', also known as '''{{tok|Luka Pona}} Sign Language''' ('''LPSL'''), is a {{w|Constructed language|constructed}} {{w|sign language}} and [[tokiponido]] created by the {{tp|luka pona}} community with large contributions from {{tok|jan Olipija}}.<!-- Phrasing requested from jan Olijpija herself. --> Unlike {{tp|[[toki pona luka]]}}, which is a {{w|Manually coded language|manually coded relex}} of Toki Pona, {{tp|luka pona}} is a full sign language, including classifiers and [[w:nonmanual feature|nonmanual features]] (NMFs). In the {{ku|en}} (2021), {{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>
