Toki Pona is a constructed language with a phonology roughly
comparable to Japanese's: syllables are V (only word-initially), CV,
or CVn (is that the right notation? CVC is possible, but only if the
last C is the sound /n/). Some people have proposed various
alternative writing systems to the Latin alphabet which is most
commonly used for it, partly because of the regular syllable
structure.
