Toki Pona Parser - A Tool for Spelling, Grammar Check and Ambiguity Check of Toki Pona Sentences
Toki Pona is a constructed, minimal language, designed by the translator and linguist Sonja Lang. Toki Pona favors simplicity over clarity, and touts itself as “the language of good. The simple way of life.”
By virtue of Toki Pona’s extremely small vocabulary, and order-independent syntax, the language is good at talking about feelings and simple relationships, but not about the finer points of politics or silicon-on-insulator microchip fabrication techniques. Tokiponists believe this is exactly as it should be.
Whether you accept the philosophy or not, Toki Pona is fun to speak.
About
This parser analyzes Toki Pona sentences. It ckecks the spelling and grammar. Furthermore, it finds possible grammatical variants. That is, it finds grammatical ambiguities. It helps you to form correct and clear Toki Pona sentences.
This parser is written in SWI-Prolog. SWI-Prolog is a free implementation of the programming language Prolog. Prolog is a general-purpose logic programming language associated with artificial intelligence and computational linguistics. SWI-Prolog supported the Definite Clause Grammar (DCG). DCG is a logic way of expressing grammar, either for natural or formal languages. These scripts contain DCG rules for describing the Toki Pona grammar.
In short: This tool analyzes Toki Pona sentences based on logic and not on “maybe” or “could be”.
It based on the offical Toki Pona book of Sonja Lang ( tokipona.org ), the lessons of jan Pije ( tokipona.net/tp/janpije ), the lessons of jan Lope ( jan-lope.github.io ) and many text examples.
