After a lot of deliberation, I have finally come up with my very own {{tp|nasin nanpa}} that I believe stays true to the philosophy of Toki Pona.

Like some others, it uses base-6, with the most significant digit spoken first. Unlike some others, it allocates a few extra words for this. The wordsa are pronounced similary to the existing word {{tp|kijetesantakalu}}, but the stress is placed differently.

The digit 5 represented with the second syllable stressed, the digit 4 is represented with the third syllable stressed, and so on, up to 0, with the last syllable stressed. DO not be deceived; these are still different words!

Stress is not marked in written form.

Example:

: {{tp|mi wile e kili kijetesantakalu kijetesantakalu.}}
: I would like thirty apples.

Caution: The subject of this article is just for fun. It might not be meant or appropriate for serious use.
This subject or style relates to Toki Pona Dictionary.

nasin nanpa kijetesantakalu is a joke number system created by soweli nata in 2020[1] and featured in the Toki Pona Dictionary.[2][3][4] It consists of the word kijetesantakalu with a different stressed syllable. The stress is unwritten in the orthography for "efficiency",[5] therefore making all digits indistinguishable in writing.

The following digits are written in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), as according to soweli nata, any change to the orthography turns it into a different number system.[6] Additionally, waso pi sona nanpa proposed the word kijetesantakalu with word-initial stress (IPA: [ˈkijetesantakalu]) as the decimal separator.[7]

Digit Pronunciation
0 [kijetesantakaˈlu]
1 [kijetesantaˈkalu]
2 [kijetesanˈtakalu]
3 [kijeteˈsantakalu]
4 [kijeˈtesantakalu]
5 [kiˈjetesantakalu]

soweli nata gives the following sentence as an example:

mi wile e kili kijetesantakalu kijetesantakalu

mi wile e kili kijetesantakalu kijetesantakalu

[kiˈjetesantakalu kijetesantakaˈlu]

I would like thirty apples.

    after a lot of deliberation, i have finally come up with my very own nasin nanpa that i believe stays true to the philosophy of toki pona.

    like some others, it uses base 6, with the most significant digit spoken first. unlike some others, it allocates a few extra words for this. the words are pronounced similarly to the existing word kijetesantakalu, but the stress is placed differently. the digit 5 is represented with the second syllable stressed, the digit 4 is represented with the third syllable stressed, and so on, up to 0, with the last syllable stressed. do not be deceived; these are still different words!

    following the spirit of omekapo, stress is not marked in written form.

    example: mi wile e kili kijetesantakalu kijetesantakalu. i would like thirty apples.

    1) i'm just soweli nata 2) it's not humorous 😤

    also they're not capitalized

    if someone capitalizes the stress then it's a different numbering system
