toki pona ASCII syllabary: Difference between revisions

The syllabary can be used to [[Text compression|compress text]], with each character being reducible to 7 {{w|bit}}s. Word lengths range from unchanged (for one-letter words) to a third as long, such as {{tok|<code>C%</code>}} for {{tp|[[sinpin]]}}. A major limiting factor for the {{w|Data compression ratio|compression ratio}} is the need to separate words, which is generally done with the ASCII {{w|Whitespace character|space}} (<code> </code>). {{tok|Misali}} also suggests using the syllabary as an {{w|input method}} for other writing systems.
