I live in the U.S. state of Arizona, and most people who speak Toki Pona would tokiponize this place as "ma Awisona pi ma Mewika." However, I will maintain that this is not correct; the correct tokiponization is "ma Alisona pi ma Mewika." […] There is one very clear tokiponization for Arizona which respects the native language and is also universally understood, and that is "ma Alisona."
(Can we date this quote?), “"ma Awisona" is incorrect”, in lipu pi ijo pi toki pona
