Due to the transitiveness of the predicate sense of {{tp|pilin}}, there have been debates on the order of modifiers in certain phrases. In pre-{{tp|pu}} sources, the most common way to say "I feel well" is {{tp|mi pilin pona}}, analysing it as the intransitive sense. Nowadays, some speakers often say {{tp|mi pona pilin}}, analysing it transitively and by analogy with other phrases, such as {{tp|pona [[lukin]]}} ("pretty") and {{tp|pona kute}} ("nice-sounding").
