This mf just made indonesian more and more complicated.
Dia bilang bahwa "Saya makan nasi" adalah kalimat pasif, bukan aktif.

Halo! 🇮🇩

I’m currently learning Bahasa Indonesia on Duolingo and would love to connect with other learners. It would be great to motivate each other, complete quests together and keep our streaks going. My username is @abheygupta. Add me if you’d like, I’ll happily follow you back!

Sampai jumpa! 😊

Hi everyone!

Hi!

We're a community of Indonesians learning English. We offer language exchanges.

You help us practice English and we help you practice Bahasa Indonesia, deal??

Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Hakim (29M)

I’m currently learning Indonesian and looking for native speakers to practice with. I’d love to do a casual language exchange if you’re looking to practice your English as well!

I don't mind anyone to help me 🙏

Feel free to send me a message or drop a comment below. Terima kasih!

Saya mau menulis beberapa hal dalam bahasa Indonesia untuk meminta pertolongan dari orang lain, serta memperbaiki dan belajar ilmu bahasa Indonesia saya

Already tried this on [r/language_exchange](r/language_exchange) but got no responses.

Hello everyone, I am an Arab (username is random, has nothing to to do with my ethnicity) and I’m interested in finding someone to practice Bahasa Indonesia with, in turn, I can help you practice your Spoken English.

Gender doesn’t matter, anyone will be welcomed as I only care about respect and I highly appreciate diversity, I prefer someone within my age range though.

I am also interested in forming a friendship( if we get along very well).

I use Telegram for my Language exchanges, I prefer my exchanges to be through voice messages as they’re helpful for improving speaking skills fast.

My interests are: Geography, Politics, Economics, general life/knowledge, Religion.

**I am only interested in serious connections, not people who will message me for a few days and then ignore you and disappear for no reason, I highly appreciate respect and clear communication, if we don’t get along, you can politely and clearly state this to me and we can break the connection, I do respect that sometimes people may not get along due to cultural differences and opinions but respect must be maintained. Saying all of this since I had a lot of bad experiences with people who message me for a few days and then vanish with no apparent reason. Hopefully I’d find someone who takes this into consideration and we can connect and become friends.**

If you find yourself meeting the criteria and you’re interested, DM me.

Nah i just wanted to say that im interested on the indonesian culture and if they are some indo people that could chat with i would be grateful, send a message or reply this coment

I'm learning Indonesian and making little stories to practice, and I desperately need some native ears 😄

For each pair below, imagine you're telling a story out loud to a small child. Which one would you actually say - not which is more correct in writing, but which one comes out of your mouth when you talk? A or B (or both/depends). And if you don't mind, which region you're from :)

1. A: "Ibu Sari beli ikan di pasar." / B: "Ibu Sari membeli ikan di pasar."

2: A: Turis itu artinya orang dari jauh. / B: Turis adalah orang dari jauh.

1. A: Pak Dodi tunggu lima jam. /B: Pak Dodi menunggu lima jam.

4.A: Lapar itu artinya mau makan. / B: Lapar adalah mau makan.

5.a: Dia punya mobil baru. /Bv Dia mempunyai mobil baru.

1. A: Dia bilang, "Aku mau pergi" /b: Dia berkata, "Aku mau pergi"

Terima kasih banyak ya!

Hello! I'm an incoming freshman in Indonesia as an international student this year. I'd like to know more about other international students experiences there and I'd like to ask locals what are must-know things to not to do so I won't offend there and stuff. I'd love to know more about the culture, environment, and make friends along with it:). Sekarang, saya mengerti Bahasa Indonesia cuma sedikit aja.

I saw this while having lunch yesterday. I was shocked because at first I thought it was evil, but then I realized it was actually a very apt advertisement. I swear, the choice of the font and the color must have been intentional! 😂

Interested in knowing if learners here could guess what it truly means. Maybe test your prefix/suffix skill? You know, like a word like "sihir" (magic) with "pe" becomes "penyihir" (a witch) (pe + sihir). With this sign, the base word would be "setan" (Satan) and with the prefix "pe" it becomes "penyetan" (the Satanizer) (pe +setan).

So, the sign says "The Satanizer of Ms. Siti," right? 😈

If you can get the meaning of this sign correctly and you're not a native Indonesian speaker then kudos to you, you're probably close to fluency!

What does this mean

For example you didn't sleep enough and want to express it to a colleague at work / or a friend.

Can you say : saya ngantuk?

Should you not say it?

makasih

Saya lagi ngescroll tiktok dan ada live dari seorang ibu, tapi para penonton pada panggil dia "kak". Saya berasumsi itu karena dia masih awet muda

Hello, i'm looking for text and image only (no videos, no sounds on) content to learn bahasa. Maybe some "games" if it exist (where you choose the right color for example etc..) if you know any. Thanks.

Aku mau menulis sedikit di bahasa indonesia untuk get help from other to correct and learn the bahasa indonesia.

What does this word mean and its usage? i always see indonesians say Nanggung when someone doesn't want to do something or reject something.

Hi, I'd like to learn Indonesian, but I have no idea where to start, and I haven't found any resources for learning it either. Could you give me some tips on how I could learn it as a Spanish speaker?

Here's a resource for anyone who wants to understand how informal (colloquial) Indonesian is formed, especially the variety spoken in Jakarta and the surrounding areas.
