sitelen seli kiwen
handwritten sitelen pona + titi pula font
Years ago I created a handwritten font called Fluorine.
It became very popular. It even appeared on greeting cards.
A reddit user translated the Periodic Table into toki pona.
They translated fluorine as “seli kiwen.”
I became inspired to make a handwritten sitelen pona font.
You can download sitelen seli kiwen here.
You can find sitelen seli kiwen on GitHub here.
The font comes in six versions:
sitelen seli kiwen (asuki/atuki/juniko) is proportional and
sitelen seli kiwen mono (asuki/atuki/juniko) is monospaced.
sitelen seli kiwen (mono) asuki automatically converts
toki pona text in sitelen Lasina (Latin letters) into sitelen pona.
sitelen seli kiwen (mono) atuki automatically converts
tuki tiki text in titi Latila (Latin letters) into titi pula.
sitelen seli kiwen (mono) juniko does not perform conversion,
requiring the use of the UCSUR assignment for sitelen pona.
These fonts are licensed under the SIL Open Font License.
You are completely free to rip them apart and steal code and
ideas for your own sitelen pona or titi pula fonts.

Special ZWJ Sequences
Some ZWJ sequences of three or more logographs
or of a single logograph and a non-logograph character
will produce characters that are not compound words
(at least not by the usual rules of sitelen pona).

Basic Glyphs
This list is now sorted using the lipu Linku categories of
core, common,
uncommon, obscure,
and sandbox.
Name Glyphs
These are glyphs for names of specific people, communities, and things.
(There is no criteria for notability here.
Anyone or anything can have a name glyph.
You don't have to be a notable tokiponist to get one,
and many notable tokiponists don't have or even want one.)
