    If it's for K12 students, I'd write: Kamu bisa melewati soal-soal yang dirasa sulit dan mengerjakannya kembali nanti.

    LEARN INDONESIAN - Unit 2. How To Respond To "TERIMA KASIH"
    Actually, it's so easy to reply a "Terima kasih". Most commonly, Indonesian will say “Sama-sama”. But, sure You can have a variety of responses depending upon the situation you are in, or adapt your reply depending on your relationship with the person you know. For instance, I may respond differently if it is a close friend or a stranger. But, the goal is to give a positive impression to the person you are talking to.

    "Sama-sama"

    Yes, I use this phrase in every formal situation or talking to a stranger. That's why I never use this phrase to my best/close friends, my family, or any close person I have. Because, personally, it is just awkward and feel like make a distance between us.

    Then, what do I usually say to respond a "Terima kasih" from my close person?

    This!

    "Siap / Siaaap / Iyah / Okeee / Sip / Okesip"

    And "Siap/Siaaap" is my favorite anyway. :D

    That's for today! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

    LEARN INDONESIAN - Unit 1. KATA GANTI (Pronouns)
    I = Saya / Aku

    "You can use both of them in a formal/informal situation. But, personally, the word "Aku" has a cute/soft tone. Hehe!.

    You = Kamu / Kalian

    "The word "Kamu" means you as singular, while "Kalian" means you as plural. So, whenever you have a speech in front of a group of people, you'd better use "kalian". Sometimes, I replace the word "kalian" by using a phrase "Kamu semua", and it has a neutral tone."

    Example:
    - Kamu istriku satu-satunya = You're my only love.
    - Kalian adalah murid kesayanganku = You guys are my beloved student!
    - Kamu semua adalah murid kesayanganku = You guys are my beloved student!

    She = Dia
    He = Dia

    We = Kami / Kita

    "The differences between those words are the one is exclusive (Kami) and the other is inclusive (Kita)."

    Example:
    - Kami tidak suka itu! = We don't like it! <em>(let say, my wife and I are talking to our kids)</em>
    - Kita harus lebih baik lagi! = We have to make it better next time! <em>(let say, you're a boss and encouraging your team)</em>

    They = Mereka

    ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

    That's for today! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

    <em>Salam</em>,

    As a Sundanese, as long as my speaking partner wasn't a Sundanese, it's okay. But, whenever I have a chat with any Sundanese guys and they use lo/gue, to me it's just weird and cheesy.

    Keep listening to English and speak it out when you've already know it.
