hi. yeah. the alternative one is the best way. the other alternative is : lagi apa? but maybe you can try to say whatever english word which contain "ng" then following it with Bahasa word. example : ang(ry)+apain. no needed to say the -ry from "angry". (just say the first syllable) then you can practice to silent the a- letter from "ang". hope it help you. semangat belajar bahasa Indonesia! :)

you can try to pronounce the "ng" like when saying "hanger", rather than saying "mango". :)

lagi ngapain is informal language, it have other alternatives, you can say : Kamu sedang apa? apa yang sedang kamu buat/ kerjakan?
