It was designed in such a way that the preexisting [[Toki Pona logo]] would be reverse compatible as a composite glyph for {{tp|[[toki]] pona}} ({{sp|toki-pona}}).<ref name="2001 probably">{{cite Discord|name={{tok|[[jan Sonja]]}}|username=sonjalang|url=//discord.com/channels/301377942062366741/1078420779231875203/1180271763398086716|server={{tp|ma pona pi toki pona}}|channel={{tok|toki-suli}}|thread={{tok|sona.pona.la}}|quote=the emblem or logo of toki pona is pretty much from the very beginning, 2001 probably. when i created {{tok|sitelen pona}} many years later, shortly before publishing {{tok|pu}}, i made sure it would be retro-compatible and mean "{{tok|toki pona}}"|retrieved=2023-12-01}}</ref>
=={{tp|sitelen sitelen}}==
The {{tp|[[sitelen sitelen]]}} glyph for {{tp|pona}} is derived from the [[Toki Pona logo]]<ref>{{cite web|url=https://jonathangabel.com/toki-pona/acknowledgements/|title={{tok|sitelen sitelen}} acknowledgements and etymology|author=[[Jonathan Gabel|Gabel, Jonathan]]|date=2012|website=Jonathan Gabel|access-date=16 November 2023}}</ref> with an emphasized smile, the three bumps on top being equivalent to the [[emitters]] of the logo.
In small writing, the "lips" of the {{tp|pona}} glyph may be simplified away, leaving a single line for the smile.<ref>{{cite web|name=[[Jonathan Gabel|Gabel, Jonathan]]|date=n.d.|url=https://jonathangabel.com/toki-pona/dictionaries/drawing-steps|title=drawing dictionary: step by step|website=jonathangabel.com|access-date=2024-03-11}}</ref>
