YOU SAID:

yupekosi is a toki pona word even though y is not a letter and has no canon sound (or maybe its the omnilocational fricative, whos to say?). Also, mulapisu means pizza. Strange, right?

INTO JAPANESE

yupekosi はトキポナ語ですが、y は文字ではなく、標準音もありません (あるいは全所摩擦音かもしれません。誰が言うでしょうか?)。また、mulapisu はピザを意味します。奇妙だと思いませんか?
