I've recently read the information about 'pi' by jan Kipo and I've now a problem of how to say
"The Chinese moonrobot is on the dark site of the moon."

I would have translated this as :
"ilo mun Sonko li lon poka pimeja pi mun."

But jan Kipo argues this is no longer an option ... 'pi' can't be used for adding just one word ... so I'm at a loss ...
