[monkeyjeffhardyboy]

haha saya berkomentar di dalam bahasa indonesia tapi im sebenarnya dari Selandia Baru, silakan balas: P

[riiend]

i'm indonesian. and i feel bad because most of the people dont speak the formal indonesian language (bahasa indonesia baku) instead of slangs. teaching indonesian language to foreigner might be a bit challenging for me. because if i teach them the formal phrases, they won't understand the slangs *rolling eyes*

so instead of "terima kasih kembali" for you're welcome, most say "sama-sama".

[monkeyjeffhardyboy]

@riiend im trying to learn formal :P

[JakobRobert00]

[Zeek19]

@kewlkewl12 well actually, if we look back at history before bahasa indonesia (persatuan) is declared as official language of Indonesia it is known as bahasa melayu. Bahasa indonesia is a dialect or another version of bahasa melayu. So when one says he speaks melayu, it may be that he's speaking melayu brunei, melayu singapura, melayu sabah, melayu kelantan, bahasa malaysia, bahasa indonesia, melayu riau, etc. Like how american ,and Irish are. Both speaking English :)

[mataram123]

@Zeek19 I think what he means to say is that bahasa Indonesia is better than bahasa Malaysia. Which I agree hehe..

[MrShizzleification]

@Zeek19 yes, but Indonesian changed the malay language immensely. The modernizer of the malay language aren't malaysian, but in fact, Indonesian. Malay was a simple, under-developed language that has little usage other than traditional malay poetry and simple conversation. It was the Indonesian that changed it into a language for science, administration, literature and so forth. So much so that Indonesia diverged deeply from Malay. So no, it isn't like American and English.

[Zeek19]

@MrShizzleification All I'm saying is I think it is ridiculous that people are arguing saying which language is better when it is the same language. I'm an Indonesian and I studied Malay literature so to my understanding as much as Indonesians were modernising the Malay language, the Malaysians also did the same, hence, certain differences in synonymous words which are mostly imported.

[Zeek19]

Im saying Malay does not belong to Malaysians only, but borneo, singaporeans,indonesians and the people in the region who speaks their own version of Malay which can be understood by other speakers. Many Indonesians are Malays too by the way.

[meksiboi]

@Zeek19

well, not many Indonesians are Malays, only some. Especially those from Sumatra and Kalimantan

[MrShizzleification]

@Zeek19 So no it isn't like American and English (Irish is a completely different language. lol). While American English and British English are the same, it isn't true for Malay and Bahasa Indonesia. True, Malaysian have adopted many of the development which Indonesia have created in order to shape the language into a modern language, but Malay is still poorly equipped for scientific discourse or even administrative paperwork.

[SuperJulax]

kalo org bule belajar lwt video ini pasti lucu bgt..kayak robot...

[macboyau]

This is so formal.. If you are planning a trip to Bali or Java you would not speak like this.

[macboyau]

3:27 I was taught as "siapa nama kamu?"

[macboyau]

1:49 should be "baik baik saja". Noone says the other one.

[boschrzr]

FYI people WILL laugh at you if you speak with such formal language....most of these words are only to be spoken when you're in a VERY formal meeting.

tapi bener deh, di tempat formal aja gue nggak pernah ngomong sampe segitu formalnya...hahahahaha ngakak dolo ahhhh....

[elisabethclemmie]

it'd be better if u go to indo, then speak with indos ppl. this one suck, it'll be awkward if u guys talk with those kind of word.

[natasya4638]

er yes... in madagascar they speak malay, but with different slangs. im a linguistic student dude! we study people before u..hahah! lol

[rezaonta]

maaan this is for a baby. gampang sekali bahasa indonesianya, kayak ga ada kata lain yang lebih panjang sama bermakna aja hehe

[gilabis]

tapi bahasa indonesia lebih penting karen 240 juta orang memakainya, bahas amelayu hanya 24 juta.

but Indonesian is much more important coz it is spoken by 240 million ppl in Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Netherlands, n much more, while malay is only spoken in Malaysia and Brunei n Singapore which is only around 28 million ppl

[natasya4638]

not correct..in malaysia we have 28 millions ppl..must be around 40 million app

[KaKaGaNu]

i thought it would be 'sama-sama'.

[dorong48]

my friend says,,,"busettt dah gampang amattt,,,ini mah buat TK kali,,,"

i have no idea what the hell is he saying,,

[ffruitness]

'baik sekali, bagaimana dengan anda?' who says that nowadays? hahah

[semperlupe]

The Dutch and the Indonesian alphabet are like almost the same :)

[grubac164]

[princesshelga123]

[pasukngpasuk]

Some are similar to dialects in the philippines..

[Senefleder55]

just wanna say, bahasa Indonesia has... I think 3 different type, although mostly the same

1. formal

2. non formal

3. gaul << used by youngster (nowadays it becomes popular)

just remember, bahasa Indonesia has only 3 grammar : past, present, future

[scillatci]

[natasya4638]

I CAN TEACH U

[montychelms]

yes would like to learn

[hotchekerzBITCH]

yeaaa techhh me bitch :P

[eriquerique]

Most of these phrases are indeed correct, but in Indonesia, they're hardly used in reality. Indonesian is a very progressive language, and most phrases uttered in conversations are very colloquial and highly dependent on which area you're in. For example, nobody says "Selamat tinggal" although it's the official equivalent to "Goodbye". People will say "Mari", "Saya duluan ya", "Yuk", "Sampai ketemu", "Sampai nanti", or "Dah" / "Dadah" instead.

[ie9rws]

Selamat pagi Selamat siang Selamat tidur :D

[residentevilvirus]

it's so funny learn my own language

[FayeChan01]

I love this language! going to bali so i gotta learn it!

[hima7voltus]

i think they aren't indonesian people.

actually the indonesian is handsome, pretty, and so friendly...

huff, video yang sungguh menjatuhkan derajat bangsa dan negara...

[korners4]

Saya belajar bahasa Indonesia di Universitas Wollongong. Saya pikir saya akan terus-menurus belajar bahasa karena saya senang sekali sukanya.

maaf saya tidak berbahasa Inodnesia dengan lancar

[bleukreuz]

This is too formal. I'm Indonesian, and "Selamat Tinggal" is rarely use in everyday conversation, it means more like if you're going away and never coming back. Usually you say "Daag" or "Dadag" ---> it written with "G" but don't use it, just say "dada"

[residentevilvirus]

yeah..

but if the other person outside the indonesia must learn from the basic first, if he or she already master it's time to learn the easy ways

[sarahrocksyourworld]

i'm in malaysia. we speak more or less the same thing

[remind999]

to learn indonesia langguage it's soo easy, just rember many indonesian vocabulary..

[rendybullseye]

the phrase for

"do you wanna fuck with me?" IS

"apakah anda ingin ngentot bersama saya?"

the phrase for

"suck my dick"  IS

"isap kontol saya"

LOL

[aysteria4love]

word for hello is halo...LOL..

[edyliang]

yah itu sih bahasa indonesia dalam theory(yang nggak bakal dipakai dalam sehari2)jadi percuma aja elo belajar.

[SiKedek]

"berbicara bahasa Indonesia"?

It should be "berbahasa Indonesia" - this was one of the first things my Indonesian teacher stressed when I first took Indonesian.

And goodbye has two forms: "selamat tinggal" is said by the person leaving, while "selamat jalan" is said by the person staying. If both are leaving, then both say "selamat jalan".

This is filled with inaccuracies.

[echy3cinema]

bahasa indonesia itu susah,,UAN bahasa indonesia aja nilai gw yang paling rendah..sial

[BattleDoll4]

rata2 kelas gw 60an!

[rendybullseye]

ah..masa UAN bahasa indonesia susah..??

tapi emg iya sih...hehehe..makanya pake bocoran^^

[AmiCakep]

"Baik Sekali,dan Bagaimana dengan anda?" hihihi nggak kepanjangan to?

[shinseijiro90]

terima kasih kembali?

y not sama-sama?

[stephyoe]

hahaha yang cowo sakao gitu matanya hahahah GEJEEE

[ketiaksudang]

Alooo (typische Deutsch wort),,,sometimes,,when someone need a help,,he/she asked someone by calling,,,Alooo..."koenten Sie mir Helfen?"

or its a normal greeting to passed someone on the street. But in Indonesia, this word "Halo" only used in a telephone greeting confersation..

[alfian89]

Aduh kenapa ini kaya robot begitu yah !

[happykimi91]

Gue cewe Australia yg pernah tinggal di Indonesia sama bokap yg kerja disana, gue udah pintar bhs Indonesia.. Hehe.. Hmm, Indonesian isn't too hard.

[centaurianz]

haduh, bahasa indonesia emang suseeee...hahahaha!!

[kcdl]

I really don't get the prefixes and suffixes in Indonesian sometime. They often don't seem to change the meaning much at all. Why say dimanakah instead of just di mana?

[craig4252]

either one is fine but the 'kah' emphasizes it's a question.

[audreaaa]

right! and it's more polite in some ways, but both are fine

[doraemonica]

the guy looks high...or sleepy, same difference.

[Jelloxox]

the world for hello "halo" now you try it lol

the rest is kinda hard and the silent letters and pauses is very hard
