Sorry about that! I actually believe its harder to explain as to understanding it. Maybe if you really think hard and concentrate, you can understand. But I recommend you ask a qualified teacher; I only have experience teaching kindergarten kids! Baik kok, kalo lo gimana? Iya lah gue orang bul...
Ain't can stand for the words "isn't (is not), arent (are not) and "haven't" (have not). "I ain't got money" "I ain't happy today" "He ain't gonna be happy with your present" That's the word "ain't&...
Hi there, I'll try to help with a few of your questions. To address/greet a teaching without knowing their name, simply call them "Ma'am/Miss (Woman) Sir (Men)". That's standard in schools here. "Hi Miss, how are you?" / "Good afternoon Ma'am". &...
You have the right idea gan. "Corny" is also a good translation for "gombal". Yes "bullsh*t" means "omong kosong". Ways to use the "sh*t" word? "sh*t" is a noun, verb and adjective! Excuse me for any rude language, but I'll give so...
Very good! A word(s) that could suit the word "alay" may be a "try hard" - Ever heard of that? It's used here (probably other western countries too) for people that try TOO hard to be cool. So their behaviour is lebay. People th@t tA1k lYk3 dIs are try hards. Though...
Yes, I think Indonesian is a lot easier than English. Even as a native speaker I still learn new things about English every day. My father is German and my mother is Australian, though I was born and live in Australia. I have a challenge for anyone. Please translate these words into English slan...
Well, basically they mean the same thing. They're quotes that mean nothing is impossible and impossible is nothing. But the most common is "nothing is impossible". I don't have any questions about the Indonesian language at this stage. I've been learning bahasa gaul from...
Just remember nothing is impossible if you always try your hardest. Or marry an Australian girl, and you can get citizenship a lot easier :P
Of course I always use correct grammar. Since I grew up speaking English, using correct grammar most of the time is as natural as breathing, know what I mean?
I find it very very rare to hear an Indonesian with an Aussie accent, however it's common with American accents. If you spend enough time abroad, you can pick up the accent too. I have an Indonesian friend who has lived in Australia for about 5 years, she still sounds Indonesian, but her ac...
Do I use correct grammar in everyday conversations? Is that what you mean? Well, using correct grammar in English speaking nations comes automatic for the speakers, though the majority of people don't understand how grammar works.
Of course there are talented singers in Korea. It's not a matter of "Koreans can't sing" - I think that's the biggest and most annoying stereotypical statement I've ever heard! I just think that there are way too many bands and singers that don't sing from the h...
I think Korean boys look like girls.. Why do most girls like that? I thought girls like MEN not cute boys that spend 8 hours each day to make their hairstyle -__- C'mon, even the music is rubbish. So digitally edited, it shouldn't even count as music. It's just a phase, I'm su...
Well, the difference is very minor. In the end of the day, both countries use English. With the language itself the only difference is spelling, which is quite rare. What do you find hard? Listening? Each English speaking country has a very different accent; American having the most 'clear&...
Thank you for that. I don't want to sound 'sombong' or 'sok pinter', but I already understand a lot of Indonesian slang, so maybe next lesson you have to find something more difficult.. ayoooo! Yet? Hmmm... This should test my teaching abilities. First of all, it is an ad...
Indonesians find the letter "R" hard to pronounce, right? Hmmm I have difficulty saying "susceptible"
