o wawa e toki sina! // improve your speech!
o lili e toki lon tenpo ken. nimi tu sama li lon la, ona li toki e seme sin? // smallify sentences when you can. when the same word appears twice in a row, what new information is it giving?
mi musi e musi Manka -> mi musi Manka
mi toki e toki pona -> mi toki pona
these constructions in particular are common among beginners, and I think they're influenced by a translation mindset. in toki pona, you don't need to "play this game" (musi e musi ni), you can just "this game" (musi ni) in most contexts. note that these suggestions are not to do with grammar; both sentences are grammatical.
seme ante lili li ken wawa e toki? o toki lon poki a! // what other little things can improve one's speech? please share in the comments!
