'''{{tp|nasin sitelen kalama pi linja lili}}'''{{aside|{{lit|small-lines sound writing method}}}} is an experimental short [[style]] of writing {{tp|[[sitelen pona]]}} [[name]]s, designed and proposed by {{tok|[[jan Sonja]]}} in late February 2024.<ref>{{cite Discord|url=//discord.com/channels/301377942062366741/875761526642978897/1211563148155424818|channel={{tok|toki-pona-kin}}|server={{tp|ma pona pi toki pona}}|author={{tok|[[jan Sonja]]}}|username=sonjalang|access-date=2024-02-27|quote=}}</ref>
In this system, {{w|tally mark}}s are written across the cartouche line below each glyph, indicating the number of [[phoneme]]s (or, equivalently, [[letter]]s of their {{tp|[[sitelen Lasina]]}} spelling) to pronounce. For one-letter words, one or no tally mark can be written.
==Comparison with {{tp|nasin sitelen kalama}}==
The system is similar to the earlier {{tp|[[nasin sitelen kalama]]}}, but it takes up less horizontal space and isn't based on [[mora]]e (both features that may be seen as pros or [[#Criticism|cons]]). Additionally, it allows taking syllable-final {{tp|n}} from the start of syllables {{tp|na}}, {{tp|ni}}, {{tp|nu}}, {{tp|ne}}, and {{tp|no}} regardless of their position in the word.
==Usage==
{{Flux}}
{{tp|nasin sitelen kalama pi linja lili}} has been introduced to {{tp|[[ma pona pi toki pona]]}} and other Discord servers. {{tok|jan Sonja}} is considering using this style in her next book if enough popular support for it develops. Due to its recency, the style is not encoded into the [[UCSUR]] or supported in many [[sitelen pona fonts|{{tp|sitelen pona}} fonts]].
==Criticism and limitations==
{{Anchor|Criticism}}
A major criticism of {{tp|nasin sitelen kalama pi linja lili}} is legibility. Because the tally marks are small, compact, and not generally {{w|Tally marks#Clustering|clustered}} (as in 𝍸), groups of more than 2 or 3 marks may be difficult to count. By using sufficiently many phonemes from one glyph or adjacent glyphs, grouping might break down. That is, it may become difficult to tell which tally marks belong to which glyphs. Reading speed may also be slower than using morae.
The system also has several limitations and points of criticism in common with the earlier {{tp|nasin sitelen kalama}}, such as ambiguous readings for certain glyphs such as {{sps|ale}} ({{tp|ale}} or {{tp|ali}}).
