=={{tp|sitelen pona}}==
The {{tp|[[sitelen pona]]}} glyph for {{tp|ni}} ({{UCSUR char|{{codepoint|ni}}}}) is an {{w|Arrow (symbol)|arrow}}, pointing down by default. WhenThis may be so that, when used as a [[modifier]] in a [[stacked glyph]], it points at the head word underneath. The glyph for {{tp|ni}} may be turned to point in other directions, toward the words it is referencing.
