Silili vs Toki Pona

  • Silili doesn't have the vowels e and o.
  • Silili has a more efficient and comprehensive vocabulary.
  • The official words are carefully crafted to never bleed into each other in speech (for example in Toki Pona, palisa ma can be heard as pali sama).
  • Proper names that are adapted to Silili don't require a categorical word (e.g. jan Kun in Toki Pona).
  • Silili has no verbs.
  • In Silili, the position of adjectives is free.
  • In Silili, doubling a word marks it as plural. So there is no word for "group" or "multiple".
  • Silili doesn't have an imperative or vocative marker (o in Toki Pona). Just say what you want.
  • Silili only relies on tone or a question mark for yes/no questions.
  • Silili has an actual number system of base-6 (partly thanks to jan Misali).
  • Silili can differentiate (not necessarily with unique words) between "very/intense", "many/much", "more intense", "more in quantity", "most intense", "most in quantity", "mild", "few/some", "less intense", "less in quantity", "least intense" and "least in quantity".
