Caution: The subject of this article is an experimental or hypothetical style that is not understood by most speakers, or is used only in specific small communities. Learners should avoid using it.

The nasa renaissance is a highly experimental and nonstandard style of Toki Pona, developed by ilo Powa over several months of absence from the ma lili and ma kule communities, and published to ma pona pi toki pona in July 2023.[1]

Grammar[edit | edit source]

Ideophones[edit | edit source]

Any reduplicated interjection becomes an ideophone, "symbolism for any sensory or emotional experience." For example, suno suno may represent the sensation of a reflective surface shining. In sitelen pona, ideophonic interjections are often written in a mu (mu)-shaped cartouche.

Superlatives[edit | edit source]

Reduplicating a head or modifying it with ale makes it a superlative, roughly equivalent to nanpa wan. lili lili remains ambiguous.

Semiparticle anu[edit | edit source]

anu is treated like kin and taso, and modifies phrases instead of separating them. anu seme is sometimes replaced with seme anu as a result.

Preverb marking[edit | edit source]

Main article: Preverb marking

ta and ni can mark preverbs.

Semantics[edit | edit source]

Categorical definitions[edit | edit source]

Extending a semantic phenomenon of words defined as adjectives in Toki Pona: The Language of Good, every content word is treated as containing ijo [word] in its semantic space. For example, pali can mean ijo pali and thence "worker". This style is sometimes called "X = ijo X".

Spatial kepeken and sama[edit | edit source]

As prepositions, kepeken and sama are given the additional spatial senses of "through" and "alongside", respectively, as it was noticed that all of the other prepositions can convey spatial information.

Three-color system[edit | edit source]

By removing laso and jelo from the color system, walo, loje, and pimeja are left to convey brightness, warmth or saturation, and darkness, respectively.
