    Hi, I have a question about forming sentences with the words "sempat" and "waktu". In my book I have a sentence that goes like this: Kemarin, rencana saya mencat, tapi hari ini, saya tidak sempat. I understand that "sempat" is somethink like "get the chance to do something"... So: Saya sempat mencat. -> I get/got the chance to paint. Or is there a "untuk" needet? Saya sempat untuk mencat? Are the sentences formed the same way with "waktu"? Saya tidak waktu mencat? Thank you for your help. :-)

    Okay, interesting! :-) So it is different, everywhere you go. I see now that I must have picked the term up during my stay in New Zealand. A roommate of mine (whose mother tongue is a kind of pidgin english, he's from Kamerun, laughed at me when i called the vegetable/fruit capsicum. He calls it Paprika. So i wondered. Thank you all for the answers.

    Capcisum - Paprika Is the word "capsicum" for paprika a word that people use in everyday life or is it just the botanical word? For clarification - I do mean this fruit/vegetable. :-) http://www.creativeexportimport.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/fresh-capsicum-752743.jpg

    Question about the suffix "-nya" Hello :-) I have a question about this sentence from my Assimil Indonesian book: There's a dialog: - Upi, kami sudah beli oleh-oleh di sini? - Belum. Saya sudah satu jam setengah mencarinya di toko ini. Why is -nya added in mencarinya in that case? Does it mean "I have already been looking for IT (oleh-oleh) for one and a hour and a half"? Or what does it refer to? Thank you for your answer. :-)

    Die Techno-Musik in München gefällt mir nicht.

    The techno music in Munich does not please me

    Techno-Musik would be written as one word. Either connectet with "-" or all written together: "Technomusik". That is a peculiarity of the german language. There's a lot of long words that consist of two or more words. Like for example "kitchen knife" = Küchenmesser (Küchen-Messer).

    Again, "Techno-Musik" and "München" are written with capital letters.

    All names of cities and countries are written with capital letters.

    "Musik" is a noun.

    in oktoberfest mann kann viel bier getränk

    Am Oktoberfest kann mann viel Bier trinken.


    "Oktoberfest" and "Bier" are nouns, so they are written with capital letters.

    There is two words that are quite similar. "Mann" for man, so for a male person. "man" means "someone"/"you"/"one". In the sense of how you wrote it "you can dink a lot of beer". But thatone is written with just one m.

    "Getränk" is also a noun and means "drink". "to drink" as a verb is "trinken" in German.

    And it is "am Oktoberfest" in the sens of "at the", not "in".

    "Saya kenal X. " Or "Saya kenal denang X"? In my book there is the sentence: "Saya belum kenal denang orang tuamu". In the audio CD, the speaker just says: "Saya belum kenal orang tuamu." Does it have the exact same meaning, or is there some difference?
