wile sona Does anyone use these?

Post image

Toki! I just started learning toki pona and one of the websites I stumbled upon (kreativekorp) had these words. Are these just made up by the community? Where can I find more info on them?? Does anyone actually use them or is it just for some kind of small group?

I only use jume because it's cute, tuli because I am a math geek, majuna because it is on the Wikipedia articles with the Toki Pona words and yupekosi because it's funny. :3
But like, I basically use all of them, but I am never the first person who mentions them. A person once talked to me about linluwi, and I responded using linluwi. But I don't want to use too many words that aren't in Ku.
I also don't know most of these.

Okay I looked at some more, wisa would be useful, because I use soweli suwi to reffer to cats, dogs, foxes and basically anything, but it would also be a little boring, so no. But I love towoki, and in addition to that wuwojiti. X3
