Line 19:
In mora-timed languages, there are groups of sounds called morae (plural of “mora”) that are each the same duration.
For example, in Japanese, morae can be V, CV, CyV, N (a nasal sound), or Q (a lengthening of the next consonant), and all of these get pronounced with the same duration.
Most fluent toki pona speakers pronounce toki pona this way{{citation needed|date=2024-02-26}}, where V, CV, and N are morae, meaning that “kon” is pronounced about twice as long as “ko,” and “pan” and “pana” are the same length.
