+'''Ike''', natively ''tōkı&#803; ı̰ke̱'' /to˦ki˧ i˦˥˨ke˨/, is an Angai Papuan language with minimalistic consonants, vowels and phonotactics but with 10 tones. It is a parody of Toki Pona.

-==Composition==
-one descendant will turn them into geminates and another turns them into ejectives
-and some with both geminates and ejectivs
+== Phonology ==
+=== Phonotactics ===
+Toki Ike segments and phonotactics are identical to those of Toki Pona. /n/ codas are treated as moraic nasals, as in Japanese.
+/i/ is romanized as <span class="Unicode">&lang;</span>ı̣<span class="Unicode">&rang;</span> unless there is a diacritic below the letter.
+=== Tone ===
+Toki Ike morae have 10 possible tones: /˥ ˦ ˧ ˨ ˩ ˧˩ ˦˥˨ ˦˥˦ ˧˥ ˩˧/, romanized <span class="Unicode">&lang;</span>'''ā̄ ā a a̱ a̱̱ a̖ a̰ ȧ á a̗'''<span class="Unicode">&rang;</span>. Only /˧ ˨/ tones may occur on non-word-initial morae.
-and one outlier with fricatives! (via grimm's law: p' > p, p > f)
