Toki pona word dictionaries.

These dictionary files are collected and edited by me (agj), and represent my own interpretation of the language, which may be different from its author Sonja Lang's or its other speakers'.

These are 'tab-separated value' files, which means that each line is a row, and columns are separated by a tab character. Empty lines are also used for increased readability.

Lists English keywords for toki pona words. The focus of these keywords is on conciseness rather than thoroughness. Whenever possible and sensible, a single English word is used per entry. Multiple entries for a single word identify different uses according to part of speech. Sometimes multiple keywords are used for the same part of speech, when multiple often-used meanings cannot be conveyed by a single English concept. Verbs are preceded by 'to' in order to make them explicit (except for the case of 'can').
