sitelen is a core content word relating to visual depictions.[1]
Etymology
The word sitelen is derived from Dutch schilderen, meaning "to paint".[2]
Semantic space
The semantic space of sitelen includes visual depictions, such as pictures, illustrations, symbols, and writing. As a transitive verb, it refers to creating a depiction, focusing to the aspect of creation instead of communication.[3]
pu
In the "Official Toki Pona Dictionary" section, the book Toki Pona: The Language of Good defines sitelen as:
NOUN image, picture, representation, symbol, mark, writing
ku
For Toki Pona Dictionary, respondents in ma pona pi toki pona translated these English words as sitelen:
picture5, image5, graphic5, symbol5, drawing5, illustration5, photo5, write4, painting4, illustrate4, writing4, written4, depict4, draw4, photograph4, portrait3, icon3, representation3, mark3, portray3, record2, render2, text2, note2, sign2, pattern2, graph2, poster2, compose2, letter (of alphabet)2
sitelen pona
The sitelen pona glyph for sitelen is derived from the closed box radical (lipu) with an ellipsis inside. Despite the box shape already containing a symbol, modifier glyphs are often scaled inside sitelen. It is inconsistent whether the ellipsis is moved above or below the modifier glyph.
