mi kama sona e toki pona = "I'm learning toki pona."
http://tokipona.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona
http://bknight0.myweb.uga.edu/toki/lesson/lesson0.html
"Toki Pona is a minimal language. Like a pidgin, it focuses on simple concepts and elements that are relatively universal among cultures. Kisa designed Toki Pona to express maximal meaning with minimal complexity. The language has 14 phonemes and 118 words. It is not designed as an international auxiliary language but is instead inspired by Taoist philosophy, among other things."
It's an interesting idea and an easy language to learn, plus it just sounds so dang cute. Whenever I speak it I'm inclined to raise the pitch of my voice a bit and use it to say cute things.
Let's all learn it 4laugh
