sitelen seli kiwen

handwritten sitelen pona font

jan Lepeka

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.

The font comes in two versions:
sitelen seli kiwen asuki automatically converts sitelen Lasina (Latin letters) into sitelen pona.
sitelen seli kiwen juniko does not, requiring the use of the UCSUR assignment for sitelen pona.

See the HTML version of this page to actually see the font.

Feel completely free to rip this font apart and steal code and ideas for your own sitelen pona fonts! I fully support this!

Compounds

In asuki, use - or + to combine words into compounds.
Use ^ or * to explicitly specify a stacked or scaled compound, respectively.
In juniko, use a zero-width joiner (U+200D) to combine words into compounds.
Use U+F1995 or U+F1996 to specify a stacked or scaled compound, respectively.

All compound glyphs from linja pona 3.6 are supported, as well as a whole bunch of others.

Extensions

In asuki, use [ and ] to make a cartouche.
Use .. or :: to insert an interpunct or colon.
Use ( and ) to extend a glyph to the right.
Use { and } to extend a glyph to the left.

In juniko, use U+F1990 and U+F1991 to make a cartouche.
Use U+F199C or U+F199D to insert an interpunct or colon.
Use U+F1997 and U+F1998 to extend a glyph to the right.
Use U+F199A and U+F199B to extend a glyph to the left.

Variants

Enable OpenType character variants or stylistic sets to access variant glyphs.
In asuki, some variants can be accessed by appending a number to a word.

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).

See the HTML version of this page to actually see all the glyphs.
