Toki Pona is a constructed language designed by Sonja Kisa. It was first published online in the summer of 2001. It is not designed as an international auxiliary language, but instead designed around a Daoist philosophy of life.
As a language designed to shape the thought processes of its users, it resembles George Orwell's invented language Newspeak. As a simple language with minimal phonology and vocabulary, it resembles Furbish or Lapine.
