Constructed language
POPULARITY
In this episode I'm joined by Toki Pona speaker Joel, also known as jan Telakoman. During the call we discuss comprehensible input as one of the strongest ways to learn a new language, and we both share our experiences learning toki pona - a tiny, constructed language of only ~150 words.

Thoughts on the episode? Let us know.Hey, jan Tokawi here, and we're going to be talking about languages.jan Tokawi is my Toki Pona name. Toki Pona is a language that I had not heard about until three weeks ago. It's a Conlang, a constructed language, meaning that it was created by, in this case, basically one human being and then a community formed around her.The entire language consists of somewhere around 140 words or so.And as I'm learning Spanish and dealing with 50 or so different forms of each verb, there's something very appealing about a language I can learn in a weekend.When I encountered the Toki Pona community, I became intrigued about the implications of communicating using such a limited vocabulary.What's it like trying to get complex ideas across? How do we make sure that our conversation partner or reader understands what we mean?And then I thought, Gee, I've got that same problem in my native tongue. Maybe there's stuff I can learn here that can make me a more effective communicator in English.I reached out to jan Usawi, who is a proficient speaker of Toki Pona, and also a musician who write lyrics in the language.In our conversation, we explore lots of philosophy and epistomology and other long Greek words.To my delight, we even tied it into transformational healing and the linguistics of radical mindset shifts.And — and this will make sense if you watch the video — we explored the function of jan Usawi's antlers.Enjoy!LinksSina – song by jan UsawiDivergent Translation presentation by jan UsawiToki Pona official siteRobWords video intro to Toki Ponajan Usawi on YouTubejan Usawi on Bandcampjan Usawi on PatreonNo Bad Parts, by Richard Schwartz (book about Internal Family Systems)Maria Mison – gamesSupport the Show.
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Toki pona FAQ, published by dkl9 on March 19, 2024 on LessWrong. Whenever I start telling someone about toki pona, they ask at least some of these questions. So I compile the questions and my answers here. Toki pona is a constructed language notable for having under 200 words. The strange writing that probably prompted you to ask me about it is sitelen pona. How do you say anything with so few words? You refer to most things with multi-word phrases, where some words act as adjectives or adverbs. Toki pona Idiomatic English Literal English ilo toki phone speech tool mi mute we/us many I/me nimi mama surname ancestral name nasa sewi miracle divine oddity sona nanpa maths number knowledge Once you know all the words of toki pona, you can combine them to express anything, tho an accurate phrasing can get long. Did you make it up? Sonja Lang made it up in 2001. Is it just a rearrangement of English? Toki pona has a grammar of its own, which is similar to English, but also about as similar to Mandarin Chinese. Individual words in toki pona are vague compared to English, precluding trivial translation. Does anyone actually use it? Obviously I do, and enthusiastically so. Some ten thousand other people do, too, but they are spread around the world, and gather on the internet, rather than in any particular country. That's so stupid. Sure, but it works! Why do you use it? Mostly sith it makes for a very efficient shorthand. The minimal vocabulary also makes it opportune as an amusing mental exercise, and as a source of examples whenever I need a foreign language - it's my first fluent L2 language. How does that writing system work? Under sitelen pona, you write each word (in the order they'd be spoken) with a single logogram, and add punctuation like in English as you see fit. There are two main exceptions. You write the word "pi" with two strokes, joined like an L, surrounding the words it groups from the bottom left. You write proper adjectives (which toki pona uses instead of proper nouns) with logograms used phonemically in a box, or (in my idiolect) in their source language's script, marked with a vinculum above.

Morteza Dehghani is a psychologist and computer scientist who uses sophisticated analytics to churn through the words we use when we talk to each other. From that, he and his colleagues can get an idea of people's moral sensibilities and the consequences of letting morality imbue our opinions on important issues. We talk about his origins in the field and the key insights he's come to about people's moral sense.In the intro, I talk about Toki Pona--the world's smallest language. You can find more at the official Toki Pona website. I also mentioned interesting work on morality, language, and culture by Emma Buchtel (e.g., Buchtel et al., 2015; Buchtel, 2022).For a transcript of this episode, visit this episode's page at: http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/episodes/Learn more about Opinion Science at http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/ and follow @OpinionSciPod on Twitter.

La Maison Tellier est un groupe de pop folk français créé en 2014, une fausse fratrie de Tellier à la manière des Ramones. Le nom de ce groupe est un hommage à la nouvelle de Guy de Maupassant “La Maison Tellier” et qui se déroule en Normandie, région d'origine des cinq membres. La Maison Tellier a sorti début Mars son septième album “Atlas”. Il a été écrit et enregistré en 2020 pendant les mois de confinement. Après “Primitifs Modernes” un album plein de colère sorti en 2019, le groupe revient avec un disque tout en français plus doux et une écriture plus poétique mais toujours engagée. Le quintet met une nouvelle fois ses préoccupations au cœur de ses textes et évoque la nature, la solitude, les amours déçues, l'inquiétude de notre monde et puis, la lumière et l'espoir toujours là. “Atlas”, comme le dit si bien le titre, est un album ouvert sur le monde. La Maison Tellier nous offre un voyage immobile. On voyage grâce à la musique. Dès le premier titre éponyme, on découvre un album aux arrangements riches, denses et flamboyants. La présence des cuivres donne une envergure forte aux ambitions musicales du groupe. La Maison Tellier renoue avec les mélodies de ses débuts, une folk inspirée et enracinée en Amérique. Les Normands parviennent à relier une folk authentique de l'Amérique et la chanson française. Le cadeau de La Maison, un morceau caché, le treizième, il est écrit en Toki Pona, la langue du bien, une langue minimaliste et positive inventée au début des années 2000. C'est sur cette belle note d'optimisme que se referme l'album. La Maison Tellier est actuellement en tournée dans tout l'hexagone. Le groupe clôturera ce tour de France en Septembre prochain avec deux dates à La Maroquinerie à Paris.

This week I’m so happy to bring you this truly awesome conversation I had with Kris Broholm of Actual Fluency about the Danish language. Kris was delightful to talk with and I learned a lot about the Danish culture and language. In this episode, Kris tells us some of the nitty gritty things about the language including Danish pronunciation, some fun facts about counting in Danish and we learn a thing or two about the grammar. We also talk about the similarities and differences between Danish and other Scandinavian languages. We discuss why English becomes the lingua franca of Scandinavian language speakers and other topics include the ups and downs of moving to a new country, learning to speak Russian and Hungarian and something I never even knew about Toki Pona. Kris talks to me also about what being able to help people along their language journey has meant to him and keep listening to find out how he views his own role within the language learning community. Big thanks to Kris for coming onto my show and for providing such thoughtful and thought provoking conversation.

Helen is without doubt one of the most accomplished and long serving podcasters in the UK (and world) and thoroughly deserving of the ‘queen of British podcasting’ title I’ve bestowed on her here.

I sometimes turn up on the radio; I write stuff; and I make things.’ This typically modest description belies the fact Answer Me This is a multi award-winning show, one of the longest running British podcasts and an iTunes classic, and the Allusionist was an iTunes show of the year 2015. ‘For so many years that I’ve been podcasting it was not a thing that people recognised, not just as a job, but as a thing!’ Helen has what many of us would consider the perfect job – she gets paid for podcasting. It was a joy to talk to Helen about her experience of podcasting over many years and thoughts about possible future directions. Listen in for many insights, observations and lessons, whether you’re a longtime podcaster or just getting started. ‘I could be a bloke with a recorder.’ There’s simply so much good stuff in this interview it’s hard to pull out the good bits without ending up with a massive long list – so just listen, enjoy and learn. But here’s a taster of what you’ll hear: How Helen got into podcasting way back when How having a musician physicist for a husband proved useful How Helen taught herself the mysteries of the RSS feed What Answer Me This is about and how it’s changed (or not) since January 2007 The beauty of audience generated content Why a successful show is created in the edit How long it takes to edit Helen’s shows and the editing rule of thumb The sexist world of radio presenters What ‘Sound Women’ is all about How Helen got involved with Radiotopia and came to make The Allusionist What’s The Allusionist and why it’s Helen’s best ever job in spite of the challenges a show like this presents The different ways Helen monetizes her podcast What has kept Helen podcasting for such a long time What podcasting’s done for Helen The potential future of podcasting Podcasting in the US and UK and getting non US voices heard Podcasting and the BBC ‘I think a lot of people think starting is the hard thing, but it’s a lot less hard than carrying on… Don’t want to put you off.’ Advice for podcasters and Divas-in-waiting Just get on with it. ‘There are so many reasons not to do something but just ignore them.’ ‘Don’t worry about it being perfect.’ That stops people wanting to do creative pursuits. They’ve heard shows and they want to be as good as the shows they like straight away, and that’s not how that happened. The shows you like started out not very good as well.’ Just have a go and keep doing it. Set a schedule because then you have to keep going and it’s that regular practice that forms the habits. Persistence is key. ‘Try the biggest idea you can, then figure out how you can make it workable…How imaginative can you make it within the technological and time resources you have.’ Helen’s favourite episodes The Allusionist: Episode 25 on Toki Pona, a minimalist invented language Helen tried to learn (with difficulty) that impacted her psyche but she still thought was fun http://www.theallusionist.org/allusionist/tokipona Answer Me This: Pick any episode at random or episode 200 featuring their families ‘Everything benefits from a bit of an edit.’ A Podcast Diva Helen likes listening to Criminal with Phoebe Judge ‘Now there are so many podcasts, I think people should think very hard before they launch one, whether it’s a worthwhile use of internet – and their own time.’ Where to find Helen Zaltzman Helen on Twitter @HelenZaltzman Helen's website: helenzaltzman.com 'Answer Me This' podcast 'The Allusionist' podcast ‘I think it takes a long time to make a bad podcast so it doesn’t take much more time to make a good one.’ Thank you Thanks to Helen for being a fabulous and fun guest and to you for listening and being here. If you enjoyed the show it would be great to let Helen and I know, and help get the word out by sharing it and leaving a review on iTunes.
Drawing is a quick and graceful way to visualise your scenarios. When discussing complexity in our system, techniques which bring a voice to each stakeholder and break down user stories should be cherished. We first heard about these ideas through Ulrika Malmgren at CukeUp! London last year. We chatted with Ulrika Malmgren about drawing and other techniques to bring teams closer together to build certain, coherent software. Ulrika also tells us about her upcoming CukeUp! London talk, "Why Testers can be a Liability" happening next month. A talk with a contentious title is always a bonus. More information about CukeUp! can be found on the website - https://skillsmatter.com/conferences/7606-cukeup-2016#program Tooky had to step out at the last moment so Aslak takes hosting duties with Matt Wynne alongside.

There’s a language which is said to be the smallest language in the world. It has around 123 words, five vowels, nine consonants, and apparently you can become fluent in it with around 30 hours’ study. It was invented by linguist Sonja Lang in 2001, and it’s called Toki Pona. And fellow Radiotopian Nate DiMeo, from the Memory Palace, decided we should learn it together. Find the Memory Palace at http://thememorypalace.us/.

The Allusionist is a proud member of http://Radiotopia.fm for http://PRX.org.
Sonja Lang has created the world's smallest functional language. Her creation, Toki Pona, contains only 123 total words, and holds simplicity as its highest ideal. Jeff is enamored by language and charmed by the idea of designing one from scratch to fulfill a specific aesthetic, while Anthony is frustrated by the lack of nuance and potential for confusion. Together, they attempt to communicate what makes for great communication. We Have Concerns is entirely listener supported!

Travel Wisdom Podcast -travel and learn languages for success and money
Gary McCluskey and I met during the Toki Pona language hackathon in MemRise headquarters in December 2014. I knew that I would meet many crazy people there and Gary was among the quirky few that would attend something like this. He has worked in Vietnam teaching English for amazing wages. He got the equivalent of $70 an hour over there allowing him to work few hours as well as save money to travel and enjoy himself. We talk about his experience in Vietnam as well as the experience of teaching English. Finally we ask if he would recommend teaching English to those interested in having a good life and travelling.
