Things I want to* say in Indonesian but don't know how
Sorry I haven't called you in a whileMaaf, saya sudah lama tidak menelepon kamu/Anda(1). PERFECT, BRAVO FOR GOOGLE TRANSLATE
When you called me, I was... (praying/studying/eating/in the toilet)
Ketika kamu menelepon aku, aku* sedang* salat*/belajar/makan/di WC.(2)
Note:
* Please don't use wanna in written form, it'll mislead the English learners here.
(1) Kamu and Anda have the same meaning You. Anda is used in a formal situation whereas kamu is used to address people who you're familiar with. Notice that the first letter of Anda should be written with a capital letter.
(2)
* Aku implies that you address yourself close to someone you talk with, and they can the same age or younger than you are.
* Sedang implies an action is in a progressive term, especially when there are two actions taking places at the same time.
* Salat is the correct spelling.
Hope they help,
Terecia
