- Me vs My Laziness Today, i just realized how lazy i am. It's been one month since i joined italki, and i just write 2 notebook's entries. Both was from the very beginning time when i just signed up to this site. Pathetic. If i need to conclude my progressions this month so the answer is 15% progressions for no writing practice until the end of the month, but thanks to every movies that i watched this month, so much help to increase the number of new words ever i learned.October 13, 201620
- 1) why instead of "dia" it is used "Ia"? Actually these two words have same meanings. In informal language, we used 'Dia' more than 'Ia', 'Ia' is more formal. 2) is it correct to write just "kata" meaning "said" or "answered"? because many times it is used this way; I thought it's better to translate it as 'berkata', 'berkata' is a verb, 'kata' is noun. 3) is it correct that the main character here (a children narrates in the first person) use always "aku"? Yes, 4) "boleh tahu" is very formal? can be translated as "may I know"? No, 'boleh tahu' isn't that formal, it's just simpel structure, if you want more formal, you can used 'bolehkah saya tahu', 'kah' can be describe as the way to ask permission. 5) the title means "Spooky stories that my father used to tell me?"0 votedSeptember 6, 20160
bertemu dengan orang indonesia
Kemarin ketika membawa anak-anak di tempat ngeles ke untuk ekskursi, saya melihat satu pasangan (sepasang lebih baik, 'se' dapat digunakan untuk menggantikan 'satu', misalnya sebuah, sekali, dll)dari Indonesia. Kenapa bisa saya segara tahu? Karena istrinya mempakai jilbab(hijab?) Di Taiwan hampir tidak seorang pun pakai jilbab kecuali orang dari Indonesia. Kelihatannya mereka kaya, saya kira mereka bukan ke sini untuk kerja, tapi liburan. Walaupun saya bisa sedikit berbahasa Indonesia, saya tidak menginginkan (lebih tepat menggunakan mau) mengganggu orang lain. Oleh sebab itu, saya tidak berbicara dengan mereka awalnya, tapi tiba-tiba suaminya meminta saya untuk mengambil mereka beberapa foto, dan saya merasa harus melakukan beberapa perucakapaan dengan mereka. Rupanya meraka sangat gembira tahu ada orang yang belajar bahasa indonesia.
Untuk percakapan informal sudah sangat bagus, [emoji]

But now, my sister got money from the bank. so we thought about making a store to enlarging our business. I was selling a fashion by online , but I think it will be great if we have a real store. I just bought rattan basket in the market around five days ago, but it wasn't still enough, we need more stuff like curtains, table, chair , even we need a store sign from wood or anything. Just imagine about it make me feel happy. Tomorrow, I will bring new furniture to our garage. Yes, we don't have more space in our house, and we don't have enough money to rent a house, so we just use our garage as a store.September 5, 201641
Mau ke mana?
Di jalan ada se orang indonesia duduk. Dia lihat se orang yang lain jalan jalan, dia minta "Mau ke mana?" se orang yang jalan jalan itu mengatakan dia pergi ke pantai. Se orang indonesia yang duduk memberitahukan "Tidak! Anda tidak pergi ke panatai!" Se orang yang jalan minta "Mengapa?, pak" Se orang yang duduk menjelaskan pantai ada di kiri, tidak ada di kanan. Se orang yang jalan berbutar dan menyatakan terima kasih.It's better to use 'Bukan' instead ' Tidak', these two words can be translated as NO in English but 'Bukan' is better to express 'not this but that . . . '
I'm sorry my English not so good
0 votedSeptember 4, 20160- Why my English not going better time by time I started to learn English when i still on primary school grade 5, but until now, after 14 years, i still have no confidence to use English as my second language, i feel no confidence with my English structure and it make me feel so dumb. Actually, in my city (Yogyakarta), you can easily found native speaker because it's one of tourist destination, you can meet people around the world. Sometime local citizen, even student, who brave enough to challange their language skill use this chance with tour-guiding them to around the city without fee because they just need an experience. I envy them so much, why i'm not that convidence. The tourists are so kind, they know if English not our language so they just let us speak with no guilty feeling. Even sometimes if they like our work, they are easily give us money as award of our effort. There are so many benefit of it actually. We just need to be brave right? Hehe By the way, if you are interested with bahasa Indonesia/Indonesian language, maybe we can be Friends, learning together must be fun rightSeptember 4, 201640
