Toki Pona is a language with a small number of words. I like Toki Pona because if you don't understand something, you can't talk about it. In order to talk about large, complicated concepts, you have to use many smaller words, and the words you use say something about the way you think. You can learn Toki Pona in just a few days, which I think is fun!
