#What?

Pimeja is a Toki Pona dictionary. You can use it online directly here: https://pimeja.lectronice.com

You can also download it for offline use, everything is contained within a single file (look for the button at the bottom.)

It currently supports English and French definitions taken from the official Toki Pona book by Sonja Lang, along with a few unofficial or removed words. It includes a sitelen pona glyph for every word and sitelen sitelen glyphs for official words. Filters also provide a simple way to hide or show word names, glyphs and definitions.

#Why?

The primary goal is to offer a convenient way to access the vocabulary anywhere, online and offline, on desktop and on mobile. It's still a work in progress, but the idea is to provide a lightweight digital Toki Pona tool that can be easily accessed and shared on most devices by anyone interested in the language.

#How?

• Filter words with the letter and category buttons in the top menu.
• Hide or show glyphs, titles or definitions with the lukin, nimi or sona buttons.
• Switch to French or English definitions with the toki button.
• Switch to light or dark theme with the kule button.
• Switch to sitelen pona or sitelen sitelen with the sitelen button.
• Display or hide word origin and rarity with the lipu button.
• Jump back to top with the sewi button.
• Download the whole dictionary with the kama jo button.
• Feel free to say hi on Mastodon or join our Toki Pona forum.

#Who?

• Inter font by Rasmus Andersson.
• linja pona font by jan Same & David A Roberts.
• sitelen sitelen glyphs by jan Same & Jansen Price.

Special thanks to Russ Sharek for his feedback and suggestions.
