A partial wordlist. I'm still not ready to do this properly, but I'll start.


ním ákulkót nát biggest diff from tp notes
li tok li (introduces a verb phrase and asserts its being done by the subject)
"S is done by something that also does O" tok li it can be used as a content word this way
"S is me (at/to O)" tok mi You still have to say li when you use mi as the subject. e.g. li li dòk as rather than mi toki
e (introduces an object of a verb just said) tok e e is not needed if you're using an immediate object.
è "S happens to O" tok e it can be used as a content word
dòk "S says O" tok toki
"S does this to O", "S is this to O" tok ni
bòn "S is good to O" tok pona th
à "S is special (about O)" tok a a general-purpose end-of-sentence particle, that can describe content-words the way it describes sentences
jàn "S is human (to O)" tok jan

lòn S is at/in/on O

pi a word that groups together the words after it the whole group is treated like a single word grammatically the group runs until the end of the sentence, or the next "li", "e", "unu" or connective.
ip a word that closes off a noun phrase or verb phrase. "pi" opens them and "ip" closes them.
ìke S is bad to O, S is complicated, S makes complications for O
