The semantic space of {{tp|olin}} does not map completely to the English concept of the word ''love'' and ''like''. Notably, according to many speakers, {{tp|olin}} does not include a inclination towards something; this is expressed with a longer phrase, such as {{tp|[ni] li pona tawa mi}} ("[this] is good towards me") or {{tp|mi la [ni] li pona}} ("for me, [this] is good"). Others are less restrictive. For example, in a [[jan Misali's thoughts on words|thread outlining his thoughts on words]], {{tok|[[jan Misali]]}} says to "go ahead and use {{tok|olin}} for whatever type of love you want." |
