GRAMMAR TIP
Sentences with mi or sina as the subject
In Toki Pona there is no form of the verb to be, so, the basic sentence is:
mi pona = I am good
sina suli = You are tall
Simply mi or sina and complete the sentence with a verb or adjective.
Sentences without mi or sina as the subject use LI to separate a 3rd person subject from its verb
mi moku > I drink
sina suli > You are tall
ona li suli -> She is tall
ona li moku -> He drinks
ona mute li moku -> They eat
li is a grammatical word that separates the 3rd person subject from its verb.
Remember: li It's only used when the subject is not mi or sina.
PROVERB
ale li jo e tenpo There is a time for everything.
