I remember half as interesting doing a video on it and several people disliking it

yeah well hai’s video was bad and full of misinformation

it was

uh

what

what was i saying

robwords doesn’t seem like he’d be as atrociously wrong as hai

I agree, but I remember seeing a cinema-sins style response video to hai’s video and one of the things was like „æktçiuali, the vowels are based on the international phonetic alphabet not the spanish vowel system“, as if there was any meaningful difference between the two and the former would be more recognizable to people who would be hearing about it for the first time, and I think there is a possibility that robwords will be similarly tormented (although the fact that more people are doing videos on toki pona is a good thing)

HAI saying they are based on Spanish was mainly criticized because before he said that, he said that the consonants were based on English, which is definitely not true.
