Talk:unpi

RFV discussion: May–June 2017
An Esperanto word for have sex borrowed from Toki Pona? I'm skeptical, and a quick search on Google Books, Google Groups, and Tekstaro turned up nothing. —Granger (talk · contribs) 18:30, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

Also, if it passes, we should determine whether it's transitive or intransitive—if it's not transitive, an "intr=yes" parameter should be added to the inflection table. —Granger (talk · contribs) 18:36, 12 May 2017 (UTC)


 * "Unpi" is a slang term that is sometimes used in Telegram chat rooms, for example. It comes from using "unpa" (one of the most well-known Toki Pona words) as if it were a normal Esperanto word with an adjectival -a ending. I do think the word has a fairly high chance of survival as a slang term, considering the amount of Toki Pona speakers and learners among Esperantists, and the high recognizability in the present tense form "unpas" and the adjectival form "unpa". I that weren't the case, I wouldn't have added the word to Wiktionary. But frankly, I forgot about the attestation requirement. I don't think you'll find it in any article or credible source. At least not at this time. —Rajzin (talk) 20:25, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
