Stick to the end to solve the riddle in toki pona.

Challenge Translation #1 (from episode 5)

"The unexamined life is not worth living" -Socrates

jan Kapu

"ali kepeken nasin pi jan ante li pakala".

It's not very exact and precise with words, but the meaning still the same, I think.

It means "life using other people's way is a mistake".

jan tjaku

"jan li lukin wawa ala e ali pi jan , la ali pi jan li jo ala e pona"

Person does not pay attention strongly to life of person, then life of person has no goodness/worth
