- "I live in the U.S. state of Arizona, and most people who speak Toki Pona would tokiponize this place as "ma Awisona pi ma Mewika." However, I will maintain that this is not correct; the correct tokiponization is "ma Alisona pi ma Mewika." […] There is one very clear tokiponization for Arizona which respects the native language and is also universally understood, and that is "ma Alisona.""
