Caution: The subject of this cartouche style introduced in 2024-02-26 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.

nasin sitelen kalama pi linja lili is a short style of writing sitelen pona names, designed and experimentally used by jan Sonja. In this system, tally marks are written across the cartouche line below each glyph, indicating the number of letters (or phonemes) to pronounce. (In the case of one letter, zero or one tally marks can be written.)

The system is similar to nasin sitelen kalama, but:

  • takes up less horizontal space,
  • doesn't require understanding of morae, and
  • allows taking syllable-final n from the start of a word glyph.

This new and experimental style by jan Sonja might be adopted in her next book if enough popular support for it develops.
