+==Toki Pona==
+===Etymology===
+English: open.  Created by Sonja Lang pre-pu.
+===Pronunciation===
+(''Toki Pona'') [[Guide:IPA|IPA]]: /ˈo.pen/
+===Content Word===
+'''open'''
+# open, begin, start, turn on
+# begin to, start to, initiate
+# access, beginning, entry, introduction
+# starter, beginning, initial
+====Notes====
+open describes activation. If I activate a light switch, that can be open. If I open a door, that can be open as well. open often describes something's function being activated, but it can also describe a beginning of an event, like the start of a concert or the start of a year. Perhaps childhood could be open. The through line here is cause and effect. the act of open is always a cause, but open can also be the event around that activation. This activation usually isn't a type of creation and serves to exist within the function of the activated thing.
